Eksodosy 33

1 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy hoe: Mandehana miakatra hiala atỳ ianao sy ny firenena izay nentinao niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, ho amin’ ny tany izay nianianako tamin’ i Abrahama sy Isaka ary Jakoba hoe: Ny taranakao no homeko azy.

And the Lord said to Moses, Go forward, go up hence, thou and thy people, whom thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, into the land which I swore to Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed.

2 Ary haniraka Anjely Aho hitarika anao eo aloha (ka horoahiko ny Kananita sy ny Amorita sy ny Hetita sy ny Perizita sy ny Hivita ary ny Jebosita),

And I will send at the same time my angel before thy face, and he shall cast out the Amorite and the Chettite, and the Pherezite and Gergesite, and Evite, and Jebusite, and Chananite.

3 dia ho amin’ izay tany tondra-dronono sy tantely; nefa tsy hiara-miakatra aminao Aho (satria olona mafy hatoka ianao), fandrao handringana anao eny an-dalana Aho.

And I will bring thee into a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up with thee, because thou art a stiff-necked people, lest I consume thee by the way.

4 Ary rehefa ren’ ny olona izany teny mampahory izany, dia nanjoretra izy, ka tsy nisy olona niravaka intsony.

And the people having heard this grievous saying, mourned in mourning apparel.

5 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Lazao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Hianareo dia olona mafy hatoka; koa raha hiara-miakatra aminao Aho, na dia indray mipi-maso aza, dia handringana anao Aho; koa ankehitriny, esory ny firavakao hiala aminao, mba ho fantatro izay hataoko aminao.

For the Lord said to the children of Israel, Ye are a stiff-necked people; take heed lest I bring on you another plague, and destroy you: now then put off your glorious apparel, and [your] ornaments, and I will shew thee what I will do to thee.

6 Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely dia nanala ny firavany hatreo an-tendrombohitra Horeba.

So the sons of Israel took off their ornaments and their array at the mount of Choreb.

7 Ary fanaon’ i Mosesy ny maka ny lay ka manorina azy eo ivelan’ ny toby lavidavitra, ary ny anarany dia nataony hoe Ny trano-lay fihaonana. Ary izay rehetra nitady an’ i Jehovah dia nivoaka ho eny amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana izay teo ivelan’ ny toby.

And Moses took his tabernacle and pitched it without the camp, at a distance from the camp; and it was called the Tabernacle of Testimony: and it came to pass [that] every one that sought the Lord went forth to the tabernacle which was without the camp.

8 Ary raha nivoaka ho eo amin’ ny lay Mosesy, dia nitsangana ny olona rehetra, ka samy nijanona teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny lainy avy, dia nitazana an’ i Mosesy mandra-pahatongany ao amin’ ny lay.

And whenever Moses went into the tabernacle without the camp, all the people stood every one watching by the doors of his tent; and when Moses departed, they took notice until he entered into the tabernacle.

9 Ary raha niditra tao amin’ ny lay Mosesy, dia nidina ny andri-rahona ka nijanona teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny lay, ary Jehovah dia niresaka tamin’ i Mosesy.

And when Moses entered into the tabernacle, the pillar of the cloud descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and [God] talked to Moses.

10 Ary hitan’ ny olona rehetra ny andri-rahona nijanona teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny lay; dia nitsangana ny olona rehetra, ka samy niankohoka teo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny lainy avy.

And all the people saw the pillar of the cloud standing by the door of the tabernacle, and all the people stood and worshipped every one at the door of his tent.

11 Ary Jehovah niteny nifanatrika tamin’ i Mosesy, tahaka ny olona miresaka amin’ ny sakaizany. Ary niverina nankeo amin’ ny toby izy; fa ny mpanompony, dia Josoa zatovo, zanak’ i Nona, tsy niala tamin’ ny lay.

And the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as if one should speak to his friend; and he retired into the camp: but his servant Joshua the son of Naue, a young man, departed not forth from the tabernacle.

12 Ary hoy Mosesy tamin’ i Jehovah: Indro fa Hianao milaza amiko hoe: Ento miakatra ity firenena ity, ary Hianao tsy mbola nampahafantatra ahy izay hirahinao hiaraka amiko; kanefa Hianao efa nilaza hoe: Mahalala anao tokoa Aho, ary efa nahita fitia eo imasoko koa ianao.

And Moses said to the Lord, Lo! thou sayest to me, Lead on this people; but thou hast not shewed me whom thou wilt send with me, but thou hast said to me, I know thee above all, and thou hast favour with me.

13 Koa ankehitriny, raha nahita fitia eo imasonao aho, dia ampahafantaro ny lalanao hahalalako Anao, mba hahitako fitia eo imasonao; ary hevero fa olonao ity firenena ity.

If then I have found favour in thy sight, reveal thyself to me, that I may evidently see thee; that I may find favour in thy sight, and that I may know that this great nation [is] thy people.

14 Dia hoy Izy: Ny Tavako no handeha, dia hanome anao fitsaharana Aho.

And he says, I myself will go before thee, and give thee rest.

15 Fa hoy Mosesy taminy: Raha tsy handeha ny Tavanao, dia aza mitondra anay hiakatra hiala atỳ.

And he says to him, If thou go not up with us thyself, bring me not up hence.

16 Fa inona anefa no hahafantarana fa nahita fitia eo imasonao izaho sy ny olonao? moa tsy amin’ ny handehananao miaraka aminay va? dia ho voavaka amin’ ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany izahay, dia izaho sy ny olonao.

And how shall it be surely known, that both I and this people have found favour with thee, except only if thou go with us? So both I and thy people shall be glorified beyond all the nations, as many as are upon the earth.

17 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Izao zavatra nolazainao izao dia hataoko koa; fa nahita fitia eo imasoko ianao, ary mahalala anao tokoa Aho.

And the Lord said to Moses, I will also do for thee this thing, which thou hast spoken; for thou hast found grace before me, and I know thee above all.

18 Ary hoy Mosesy: Mba ampahitao ny voninahitrao aho.

And [Moses] says, Manifest thyself to me.

19 Fa hoy kosa Jehovah: Izaho hampandalo ny fahatsarako rehetra eo anatrehanao ka hanonona ny anaran’ i Jehovah eo anatrehanao; fa hiantra izay hiantrako Aho, ary hamindra fo amin’ izay hamindrako fo.

And [God] said, I will pass by before thee with my glory, and I will call by my name, the Lord, before thee; and I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and will have pity on whom I will have pity.

20 Ary hoy koa Izy: Tsy mahazo mahita ny tavako ianao; fa tsy misy olona mahita Ahy ka ho velona.

And [God] said, Thou shalt not be able to see my face; for no man shall see my face, and live.

21 Dia hoy Jehovah: Indro, misy fitoerana eto anilako; dia hijanona eo ambonin’ ny harambato ianao;

And the Lord said, Behold, [there is] a place by me: thou shalt stand upon the rock;

22 koa raha mandalo ny voninahitro, dia hataoko eo an-tsefaky ny harambato ianao, ka hosaronako ny tanako ianao mandra-pandaloko.

and when my glory shall pass by, then I will put thee into a hole of the rock; and I will cover thee over with my hand, until I shall have passed by.

23 Dia hanaisotra ny tanako Aho, ka hahita ny vohoko ianao; fa ny tavako tsy ho hita.

And I will remove my hand, and then shalt thou see my back parts; but my face shall not appear to thee.
