< Eksodosy 32 >

1 Ary rehefa hitan’ ny olona fa efa ela ka tsy mbola nidina avy tao an-tendrombohitra ihany Mosesy, dia niangona ho eo amin’ i Arona izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mitsangana, ka anaovy andriamanitra izahay, hitarika antsika eo aloha; fa ilay Mosesy iny, izay lehilahy nitondra antsika niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, dia tsy fantatray izay nanjo azy,
Then the people, seeing that Moses made a delay in descending from the mountain, gathered together against Aaron, and said: “Rise up, make us gods, who may go before us. But as for this man Moses, who led us away from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has befallen him.”
2 Ary hoy Arona taminy: Romboty ary ny kavim-bolamena, izay eny amin’ ny sofin’ ny vadinareo sy ny zanakareo-lahy ary ny zanakareo-vavy, ka ento etỳ amiko.
And Aaron said to them, “Take the golden earrings from the ears of your wives, and your sons and daughters, and bring them to me.”
3 Ary ny olona rehetra dia nandrombotra ny kavim-bolamena izay teny amin’ ny sofiny ka nitondra azy ho eo amin’ i Arona.
And the people did what he had commanded, carrying the earrings to Aaron.
4 Ary izy nandray azy tamin’ ny tanan’ ny olona, dia namboatra azy tamin’ ny fandraka ka nanao azy ho ombilahy kely an-idina; dia niteny ny olona ka nanao hoe: Io no andriamanitrao, ry Isiraely, izay nitondra anao niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta.
And when he had received them, he formed these by the work of a casting furnace, and he made from these a molten calf. And they said: “These are your gods, O Israel, who led you away from the land of Egypt.”
5 Ary raha hitan’ i Arona izany, dia nanao alitara teo anoloany izy; ary dia niantso Arona ka nanao hoe: Andro firavoravoana ho an’ i Jehovah rahampitso.
And when Aaron had seen it, he built an altar before it, and he cried out with a voice of proclamation, saying, “Tomorrow is the solemnity of the Lord.”
6 Dia nifoha maraina koa ny olona ka nanatitra fanatitra dorana sy nitondra fanati-pihavanana; ary nipetraka hihinana sy hisotro ny olona, dia nitsangana hilalao.
And rising up in the morning, they offered holocausts, and peace victims, and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and they rose up to play.
7 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Mandehana midìna ianao; fa efa nanao ratsy ny olonao izay nentinao niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta.
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “Go, descend. Your people, whom you led away from the land of Egypt, have sinned.
8 Nalaky nivily niala tamin’ ny lalàna izay nasaiko nalehany izy ka efa nanao ombilahy kely an-idina ho azy; ary efa niankohoka teo anatrehany sy namono zavatra hatao fanatitra taminy izy ka nanao hoe: Io no andriamanitrao, ry Isiraely, izay nitondra anao niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta.
They have quickly withdrawn from the way which you revealed to them. And they have made for themselves a molten calf, and they have worshiped it. And immolating victims to it, they have said: ‘These are your gods, O Israel, who led you away from the land of Egypt.’”
9 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Efa hitako io firenena io, fa, indro, firenena mafy hatoka izy.
And again, the Lord said to Moses: “I discern that this people is stiff-necked.
10 Koa ankehitriny avelao hirehitra aminy ny fahatezerako, ka haringako izy; fa hahatonga anao ho firenena lehibe Aho.
Release me, so that my fury may be enraged against them, and I may destroy them, and then I will make of you a great nation.”
11 Fa Mosesy nifona tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny ka nanao hoe: Jehovah ô, nahoana ny fahatezeranao no mirehitra amin’ ny olonao, izay nentinao nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta tamin’ ny hery lehibe sy ny tanana mahery?
Then Moses prayed to the Lord his God, saying: “Why, O Lord, is your fury enraged against your people, whom you led away from the land of Egypt, with great strength and with a mighty hand?
12 Nahoana ny Egyptiana no avela hilaza hoe: Mba hahita loza no nitondrany ireny nivoaka, hamonoany azy eny an-tendrombohitra sy handringanany azy tsy ho ambonin’ ny tany? Mialà amin’ ny fahatezeranao mirehitra, ka manenena ny amin’ ny loza izay hanjo ny olonao.
I beg you, let not the Egyptians say, ‘He cleverly led them away, so that he could put them to death in the mountains and destroy them from the earth.’ Let your anger be quieted and appeased concerning the wickedness of your people.
13 Tsarovy Abrahama sy Isaka ary Isiraely mpanomponao, izay nianiananao tamin’ ny tenanao sy nilazanao hoe: Hahamaro ny taranakareo Aho ho tahaka ny kintana eny amin’ ny lanitra; ary izany tany rehetra nolazaiko izany dia homeko ny taranakareo, ary izy handova izany mandrakizay.
Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your very self, saying: ‘I will multiply your offspring like the stars of heaven. And this entire land, about which I have spoken, I will give to your offspring. And you shall possess it forever.’”
14 Ary Jehovah dia nanenina ny amin’ ny loza izay nokasainy hamelezana ny olony.
And the Lord was appeased from doing the evil which he had spoken against his people.
15 Ary Mosesy nihodina ka nidina avy tao an-tendrombohitra, nitondra ny vato fisaka roa nisy ny Vavolombelona teny an-tànany; ny vato fisaka nosoratana teo amin’ ny lafiny roa: dia teo anatrehany sy teo ambadika no nisy ny soratra.
And Moses returned from the mountain, carrying the two tablets of the testimony in his hand, written on both sides,
16 Ary ny vato fisaka dia asan’ Andriamanitra, ary ny soratra dia soratr’ Andriamanitra, voasoratra teo amin’ ny vato fisaka.
and accomplished by the work of God. Also, the writing of God was engraved on the tablets.
17 Ary rehefa ren’ i Josoa ny fitabataban’ ny olona izay nihorakoraka, dia hoy izy tamin’ i Mosesy: Misy tabataban’ ady atsy an-toby.
Then Joshua, hearing the tumult of the people shouting, said to Moses: “The outcry of battle is heard in the camp.”
18 Fa hoy kosa izy: Tsy feo fihobian’ ny mahery na feo fitomanian’ ny resy no reko, fa feon’ ny mihira.
But he responded: “It is not the clamor of men being exhorted to battle, nor the shout of men being compelled to flee. But I hear the voice of singing.”
19 Ary raha nanakaiky ny toby izy, dia nahita ny ombilahy kely sy ny dihy; ary nirehitra ny fahatezeran’ i Mosesy, dia natontany ny vato fisaka teny an-tànany ka novakivakiny teo am-bodin’ ny tendrombohitra.
And when he had approached to the camp, he saw the calf and the dances. And being very angry, he threw down the tablets from his hand, and he broke them at the base of the mountain.
20 Dia nalainy ilay ombilahy kely izay efa nataon’ ny olona ka nodorany tamin’ ny afo, ary notorotoroiny ho vovoka, dia nafafiny tambonin’ ny rano ka nampisotroiny ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
And seizing the calf, which they had made, he burnt it and crushed it, even to dust, which he scattered into water. And he gave from it to the sons of Israel to drink.
21 Ary hoy Mosesy tamin’ i Arona: Inona no nataon’ ity firenena ity taminao, no nitondranao heloka lehibe taminy?
And he said to Aaron, “What has this people done to you, so that you would bring upon them the greatest sin?”
22 Fa hoy kosa Arona: Aoka tsy hirehitra ny fahatezeranao, tompoko, fa ianao mahalala ny toetry ny olona, fa mpanao ratsy izy;
And he answered him: “Let not my lord be indignant. For you know this people, that they are prone to evil.
23 ary hoy izy tamiko: Manaova andriamanitra ho antsika, hitarika antsika eo aloha; fa ilay Mosesy iny, izay lehilahy nitondra antsika niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, dia tsy fantatray izay nanjo azy.
They said to me: ‘Make gods for us, who may go before us. For this Moses, who led us away from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has befallen him.’
24 Ary hoy izaho taminy: Na zovy na zovy manam-bolamena, aoka handrombotra izany izy, ka dia nomeny ahy; ary natsipiko tao anaty afo izany, ka io ombilahy kely io no nivoaka.
And I said to them, ‘Which of you has gold?’ And they took it and gave it to me. And I threw it into the fire, and this calf came out.”
25 Ary rehefa hitan’ i Mosesy fa natondraka hanaram-po amin’ izay tsy mety ny olona, satria efa natondrak’ i Arona ho fanakorana eo amin’ ny fahavalony izy,
Therefore, Moses, seeing that the people were naked (for Aaron had stripped them because of the disgrace of their sordidness, and he had set them naked among their enemies),
26 dia nijanona teo amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny toby Mosesy ka nanao hoe: Izay rehetra an’ i Jehovah mankanesa etỳ amiko. Ary ny taranak’ i Levy rehetra niangona teo aminy.
and standing at the gate of the camp, said: “If anyone is for the Lord, let him join with me.” And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
27 Dia hoy izy taminy: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Samia manao ny sabany eo am-balahany avy ianareo, dia mandrosoa sy miverimberena amin’ isam-bavahadin’ ny toby, ary samia mamono ny rahalahiny avy sy ny sakaizany avy ary ny namany avy ianareo.
And he said to them: “Thus says the Lord God of Israel: Let a man place his sword at his thigh. Go forth, and then return, from gate to gate, through the midst of the camp, and let each one kill his brother, and friend, and neighbor.”
28 Dia nanao araka ny tenin’ i Mosesy ny taranak’ i Levy; ary nahafatesana tokony ho telo arivo lahy ny olona tamin’ izany andro izany.
And the sons of Levi did according to the words of Moses, and there fell on that day about twenty-three thousand men.
29 Fa Mosesy efa nilaza hoe: Manokàna ny tenanareo ho an’ i Jehovah ianareo anio; eny, samia mamono ny zanany sy ny rahalahiny avy, mba hahazoanareo fitahiana anio.
And Moses said: “On this day, you have consecrated your hands to the Lord, each one in his son and in his brother, so that a blessing may be given to you.”
30 Ary nony maraina dia hoy Mosesy tamin’ ny olona: Efa nanao fahotana lehibe ianareo; ary ankehitriny, dia hiakatra ho amin’ i Jehovah aho, fa angamba hahazo manao fanavotana ny amin’ ny fahotanareo.
Then, when the next day arrived, Moses spoke to the people: “You have sinned the greatest sin. I will ascend to the Lord. Perhaps, in some way, I might be able to entreat him for your wickedness.”
31 Ary Mosesy dia niverina ho ao amin’ i Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Indrisy! efa nanao fahotana lehibe ity firenena ity ka efa nanao andriamani-bolamena ho azy.
And returning to the Lord, he said: “I beg you, this people has sinned the greatest sin, and they have made for themselves gods of gold. Either release them from this offense,
32 Ary ankehitriny, enga anie ka hamela ny fahotany Hianao! fa raha tsy izany, mifona aminao aho, vonoy eo amin’ ny bokinao izay nosoratanao ny anarako.
or, if you do not, then delete me from the book that you have written.”
33 Fa hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Na iza na iza nanota tamiko, dia hovonoiko ny anarany eo amin’ ny bokiko.
And the Lord answered him: “Whoever has sinned against me, him I will delete from my book.
34 Mandehana ankehitriny, ka ento ny olona ho any amin’ izay efa nolazaiko taminao; indro, ny Anjeliko no hitarika anao eo aloha; ary amin’ izay andro hamaliako dia hamaly azy noho ny fahotany Aho.
But as for you, go and lead this people where I have told you. My angel will go before you. Then, on the day of retribution, I will also visit this sin of theirs.”
35 Ary Jehovah namely ny olona, satria nanao ny ombilahy kely izy, dia ilay nataon’ i Arona.
Therefore, the Lord struck the people for the guilt of the calf, which Aaron had made.
