Eksodosy 32
1 Aa naho nirendre’ ondatio te nalaom-pizotso boak’ ambohitse añe t’i Mosè, le niropak’ amy Aharone ondatio nanao ty hoe, Miongaha, andranjio ndrahare zahay, hiaolo anay; fa i Mosè zay, indaty ninday antika niavotse an-tane Mitsraimey, nofi’ay ty nizò aze.
[(Moses/I) stayed on top of the mountain a long time]. When the people realized that he/I was not returning quickly, they gathered near Aaron and said to him, “We do not know what has happened to that man Moses who brought us here out of Egypt. So quickly, make us ([an idol/a statue of a god]) who will lead us!”
2 Aa hoe t’i Aharone am’ iereo, Apitsoho an-tsofim-bali’ areo naho amo ana-dahy naho anak’ ampela’ areoo o bange volamenao, le endeso amako.
Aaron replied to them, “All right, [I will do that, but] tell your wives and your sons and your daughters to take off all their gold earrings and bring them to me.”
3 Aa le napitso’ ondaty iabio o bange volamena an-dravembia’ iareoo vaho nendese’ iereo mb’ amy Aharone mb’eo.
So the people did that. They took off all their gold earrings and brought them to Aaron.
4 Rinambe’e am-pità’ iareo naho nitsene’e amam-pisokirañe naho namboare’e bania nitranaheñe, vaho hoe iereo, Intoy o ndrahare’oo, ry Israele, i ninday azo niakatse an-tane Mitsraimey.
He took all those gold earrings and melted them in a fire. He [poured the gold into a mold and] made a statue that looked like a young bull. The people saw it and said, “This is the god of us Israeli people! This is the one who brought us up from the land of Egypt!”
5 Aa naho nioni’ i Aharone, le nandranjy kitrely aolo’eo vaho nikoike ty hoe: Hamaray ty ho takataka am’ Iehovà.
When Aaron saw [what was happening], he built an altar in front of the [statue of the] young bull. Then he announced, “Tomorrow we will have a festival to honor Yahweh!”
6 Le nitroatse maraindrain-tsikiake iereo te loak’ andro nisoroñe naho nanese engam-panintsiñañe; le niambesatse ondatio nikama naho ninoñe vaho niongake le nihisa.
So the people got up early the next morning and brought animals to kill and burn as sacrifices on the altar. They also brought sacrifices to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. Then they sat down to eat and drink [wine]. Then they got up and started dancing in a very immoral way.
7 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Akia mizotsoa! Fa naniva vatañe ondaty nendese’o niavotse an-tane Mitsraimeo
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go back down from the mountain, because your people, the ones that you brought up here from Egypt, have [already] (become very depraved/wicked)!
8 fa nivike aniany amy làlañe linilikoy; ie nampitranake sare bania naho nitalahoa’e naho nisoroña’e vaho nanao ty hoe, Intoy o ndrahare’oo, ry Israele, i ninday azo nienga an-tane Mitsraimey!
They have already (left the road that I showed them/stopped obeying me)! They have made [a statue of] a young bull from melted gold. They have worshiped it and offered sacrifices to it. And they are saying, ‘This is the god of us Israeli people! This is the one who brought us up from Egypt!’”
9 Hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Fa nitreako ondatio; inao! toe ondaty gam-pititia!
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “I have seen that these people are very stubborn.
10 Ie amy zao, angao iraho, hiforoforoa’ ty haboseko, ho forototoeko, vaho ihe ty hanoeko foko ra’elahy.
I am very angry with them, and so I am going to get rid of them. Do not try to stop me! Then I will cause you and your descendants to become a great nation.”
11 Fe niambane am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’e t’i Mosè nanao ty hoe: Ry Iehovà, ino ty isolebora’ ty fifombo’o am’ondati’o nindese’o niakatse an-tane Mitsraime añe an-kaozaran-dra’elahy vaho an-kafatraram-pitàñeo.
But Moses/I pleaded with his/my God, Yahweh, and said, “Yahweh, (you should not be very angry with your people!/why are you so angry with your people [RHQ]?) These are the people whom you rescued from Egypt with very great power [MTY, DOU]!
12 Aa vaho tsy hatao’ o nte-Mitsraimeo ty hoe te Nakare’e hijoia’e, hañohofa’e loza ambohitseo vaho ho mongore’e an-tane atoy? Iambohò o fifombo’o miloroloroo vaho ferenaiño tsy hampianto ondati’oo.
Do not [do anything that would] allow the people of Egypt to say, ‘Their god led them out from our country, but [he did that] only [because he wanted] to kill them in the mountains and get rid of them completely [RHQ]!’ Stop being so angry! (Change your mind/Do not do what you have told me that you will do)! Do not do to your people this terrible thing [that you have just said that you will do]
13 Tiahio i Avrahame, Ietsàke vaho Israele mpitoro’o nifantà’o am-pañova’o naho nitsara’o ty hoe: Hampitomboeko ho mira amo vasian-dikerañeo ty ia’ o tarira’ areoo naho ze hene tane nivolañeko te hatoloko an-tarira’ areo vaho ho lovae’ iareo nainai’ey.
Think about your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. You solemnly promised them, ‘I will enable you to have as many descendants as there are stars in the sky.’ You said to them, ‘I will give to your descendants all the land that I am promising to give them. It will be their land forever.’”
14 Aa le niheve’ Iehovà ty fandrotsahañe nisafirie’e hanoeñe am’ondati’eo.
So Yahweh changed his mind. He did not do to his people the terrible thing that he said he would do.
15 Nitolik’ amy zao t’i Mosè nizotso amy vohitsey, am-pità’eo i ravem-bato roe’ i fañinay rey, rave’e sinokitse ami’ty lafe’e roe, aolo’e vaho amboho’e.
Moses/I turned away from God and went down the mountain, carrying in his hands the two stone slabs on which Yahweh had engraved his commandments. He had written on both sides of the slabs.
16 Sàtan’ Añahare i rave’e rey vaho sokin’ Añahare i sokitse finandrak’ amo rave’eoy.
God [himself] had made the slabs, and he was the one who had engraved the commandments on them.
17 Ie jinanji’ Iehosoa ty korà’ ondatio ami’ty fikontsiaña’e le hoe re amy Mosè: Hoe fikorahan’aly ty an-tobe ao.
Joshua heard the very loud noise of the people shouting. So when he and I got near the camp, Joshua said, “There is a noise in the camp that sounds like [the noise of] a battle!”
18 Fa hoe re, Tsy ty fitreñam-pandrebake naho tsy ty fangoihoia’ o giokeo, fa ty fivolam-pihisa ty tsanoñeko.
But Moses/I replied, [“No], that is not the shouting that people do when they have won a victory or when they have been defeated [in a battle] What I hear is the sound of [loud] singing!”
19 Aa ie narine i tobey naho nahaisake i baniay naho i tsinjakey, le niforoforo ty haviñera’ i Mosè naho navokovokom-pità’e i rave’e rey le nivolentsa am-poto’ i vohitsey.
As soon as Moses/I came close to the camp and saw the statue of the young bull and saw the people dancing, he/I became extremely angry. He/I threw the stone tablets that he/I was carrying down onto the ground, there at the base of the mountain.
20 Rinambe’e i bania tsinène’ iereoy le tineno’e añ’afo ao naho nilisane’e ho deboke naho nafitse’e an-tarehe’ i ranoy vaho nampinome’e o ana’ Israeleo.
Then he/I took the statue of the young bull that they had made and melted it in the fire. [When it cooled], he/I ground it into [fine] powder. Then he/I mixed the powder with water and forced the Israeli people to drink it.
21 Le hoe t’i Mosè amy Aharone, Ino ty nanoa’ ondaty retia te nampanoe’o hakeo jabajaba hoe zao.
Then he/I said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, with the result that you have made them commit such a terrible sin?”
22 Aa hoe t’i Aharone, Ko anga’o hangosasàke ty fifombo’ i talèkoy; fohi’o ondatio, te raty tsereke.
Aaron replied, “Please do not be angry with me, sir. You know that these people are very determined to do evil things.
23 Ie nanao ty hoe amako, Itseneo ndrahare hiaolo anay; fa i Mosè zay, indaty ninday anay niavotse an-tane Mitsraimey, nofi’ay ty nizo aze.
They said to me, ‘As for that man Moses, the one who brought us up here from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him. So make for us an idol that will lead us!’
24 Le nanoako ty hoe, Ze am-bolamena, afaho; natolo’ iereo le nafetsako añate-afo ao vaho niboake ty bania tia.
So I said to them, ‘Everyone who is wearing [gold earrings] should take them off.’ So they [took them off and] gave them to me. I threw them into the fire, and out came this statue of a young bull!”
25 Aa naho nioni’ i Mosè te nitsamborohotake ondatio (amy t’ie nampidadae’ i Aharone hitsikiha’ o rafelahi’ iareoo),
Moses/I saw that Aaron had allowed the people to become completely out of control and to do things that would make their enemies think the Israeli people were foolish.
26 le nijohañe am-pizilihañe an-tobe ao t’i Mosè nanao ty hoe, Ze mpiam’ Iehovà, mb’ amako mb’ etoa! Le hene nifanontoñe ama’e o ana’ i Levio.
So he/I stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, “Everyone who is loyal to Yahweh should come [closer] to me!” So the descendants of Levi gathered around him/me.
27 Le hoe re am’ iereo, Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Songa mañombea fibara añ’ila’e, le mibelobeloa boak’ an-dalambey pak’ an-dalambei’ ty tobe toy le manjevoña: sindre an-drahalahi’e, songa an-drañe’e vaho fonga an-dongo’e.
Then he/I said to them, “Yahweh, the God of us Israeli people, commands that every one of you should fasten your sword to your side, and then go through the camp from this entrance to the other one, and kill some of your relatives and your companions and your neighbors.”
28 Aa le nanoe’ o ana’ i Levio i nisaontsia’ i Mosèy vaho miha-telo arivo t’indaty nikoromak’ amy andro zay.
The descendants of Levi did what Moses/I told them to do, and they killed 3,000 men on that day.
29 Aa hoe t’i Mosè, Fa nanokam-batañe am’ Iehovà nahareo anindraoany, amy te fonga niatreatre anadahy naho rahalahy, hanoloram-pitahiañe ama’ areo anito.
Moses/I said to the descendants of Levi, “Today you have dedicated yourselves to serving Yahweh by (killing/not sparing) [even] your own sons and brothers, and as a result Yahweh will bless you.”
30 Ie amy loak’ àndroy, hoe t’i Mosè am’ ondatio, Inao! Inahareo’nio, fa nandilatse an-kakeo jabajaba! aa le hiañambone mb’ am’ Iehovà mb’eo hey iraho; hera hahafijebañe i tahi’ areoy.
The next day, Moses/I said to the people, “You have committed a terrible sin. But I will now climb up the mountain again to talk with Yahweh. Perhaps I can [persuade him] to forgive you for sinning [like this].”
31 Aa le nibalike mb’am’ Iehovà mb’eo t’i Mosè nanao ty hoe, Hoy Aba! ty habey hakeo’ ondatio te namboatse ndrahare volamena.
So Moses/I went back up the mountain and said to Yahweh, “I am sorry to admit that these people have committed a terrible sin. They have made for themselves a gold idol and have worshiped it.
32 Aa ie henane zao naho mete, apoho ty tahi’ iareo, fa naho tsie, faopaoho amy boke sinoki’oy ty añarako.
But now I ask you to please forgive them for having sinned. If you will not forgive them, then erase my name from the book in which you have written [the names of your people].”
33 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Ze nandilatse amako, ie ty ho faoheko amy bokekoy.
But Yahweh said to Moses/me, “It is [only] those who have sinned against me whose names I will erase from that book.
34 Aa le akia hey, Iaolò mb’ amy toetse natoroko azoy mb’eo ondatio; hehe, hiaolo azo i irakoy vaho amy andro fitilihañey ty hampitilihako i tahi’ iareoy.
Now you go back down and lead the [Israeli] people to the place that I told you about. Keep in mind that my angel will go in front of you. But, at the time that I determine, I will punish them for their sin.”
35 Aa le nahitri’ Iehovà am’ondatio ty angorosy ty amy bania namboare’ iereoy, i tsinene’ i Aharoney.
[Later] Yahweh caused a plague to strike the people because they had told Aaron to make the gold [statue of a] young bull.
