1 तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तँ, हारून, नादाब, अबीहू र इस्राएलका सत्तरी जना धर्म-गुरु मकहाँ उक्लेर आओ र केही दूरी राखेर मेरो आराधना गर ।
And He said to Moses, “Come up to YHWH, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy from [the] elderly of Israel, and you have bowed yourselves far off”;
2 मोशा मात्र मेरो नजिक आउन सक्छ । अरूहरू मेरो नजिक नआउनू न त मानिसहरू नै तिनीहरूसित आउनू ।”
and Moses has drawn near to YHWH by himself; and they do not draw near, and the people do not go up with him.
3 मोशा गएर परमप्रभुका वचनहरू र विधिविधानहरू मानिसहरूलाई सुनाइदिए । सबै मानिसले एकै सोरमा भने, “परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएका सबै वचन हामी पालन गर्नेछौँ ।”
And Moses comes in, and recounts to the people all the words of YHWH, and all the judgments, and all the people answer [with] one voice, and say, “All the words which YHWH has spoken we do.”
4 तब मोशाले परमप्रभुका सबै वचन लेखे । बिहान सबेरै उठेर मोशाले पर्वतको फेदीमा एउटा वेदी बनाए र इस्राएलका बाह्र कुलको प्रतिनिधित्व हुने गरी बाह्रवटा ढुङ्गाका वेदी बनाए ।
And Moses writes all the words of YHWH, and rises early in the morning, and builds an altar under the hill, and twelve standing pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel;
5 तिनले परमप्रभुका निम्ति केही इस्राएली जवानहरूलाई गोरुको होमबलि र मेलबलि चढाउन पठाए ।
and he sends the youths of the sons of Israel, and they cause burnt-offerings to ascend, and sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings to YHWH—calves.
6 मोशाले आधा रगत लिएर त्यसलाई कचौरामा हाले । तिनले बाँकी आधा रगत भने वेदीमा छर्के ।
And Moses takes half of the blood and puts [it] in basins, and he has sprinkled half of the blood on the altar;
7 तिनले करारको पुस्तक लिएर मानिसहरूले सुन्‍ने गरी चर्को सोरमा पढे । तिनीहरूले भने, “परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएका सबै कुरा हामी पालन गर्नेछौँ । हामी आज्ञाकारी बन्‍नेछौँ ।”
and he takes the Scroll of the Covenant, and proclaims [it] in the ears of the people, and they say, “All that which YHWH has spoken we do, and we obey.”
8 तब मोशाले रगत लिएर त्यसलाई मानिसहरूमाथि छर्के । तिनले भने, “यी सबै वचनसहित तिमीहरूलाई यो प्रतिज्ञा दिएर यो परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूसित बाँध्‍नुभएको करारको रगत हो ।”
And Moses takes the blood and sprinkles [it] on the people, and says, “Behold, the blood of the covenant which YHWH has made with you, concerning all these things.”
9 तब मोशा, हारून, नादाब, अबीहू र इस्राएलका सत्तरी जना धर्म-गुरु पर्वतमाथि उक्लेर गए ।
And Moses goes up, Aaron also, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy from [the] elderly of Israel,
10 तिनीहरूले इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरलाई देखे । उहाँको पाउमुनि आकाशजस्तै सफा नीरबाट निर्मित बाटो थियो ।
and they see the God of Israel, and under His feet [is] as the work of a pavement of sapphire, and as the substance of the heavens for purity;
11 परमेश्‍वरले इस्राएली अगुवाहरूमाथि आफ्नो हात उठाउनुभएन । तिनीहरूले परमेश्‍वरलाई देखे अनि तिनीहरूले खाए र पिए ।
and He has not put forth His hand to those of the sons of Israel who are near, and they see God, and eat and drink.
12 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो, “माथि पर्तवमा मकहाँ उक्लेर आइज र यहाँ बस् । म तँलाई व्यवस्था र आज्ञाहरू लेखिएका शिला-पाटीहरू दिनेछु अनि तैँले तिनीहरूलाई सिका ।”
And YHWH says to Moses, “Come up to Me [on] the mountain and be there, and I give to you the tablets of stone, and the Law, and the command, which I have written to direct them.”
13 त्यसैले मोशा आफ्ना सहयोगी यहोशूसँगै परमेश्‍वरको पर्वतमा उक्लेर गए ।
And Moses rises—his minister Joshua also—and Moses goes up to the mountain of God;
14 मोशाले धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई भनेका थिए, “यहीँ बस्‍नुहोस् र हामी तपाईंहरूकहाँ नआउञ्‍जेलसम्म पर्खेर बस्‍नुहोस् । हारून र हूर तपाईंहरूसितै छन् । कसैको केही वादविवाद भएमा तिनीहरूकहाँ जानू ।”
and he has said to the elderly, “Abide for us in this [place] until we return to you, and behold, Aaron and Hur [are] with you—he who has matters comes near to them.”
15 त्यसैले मोशा पर्वतमा उक्लेर गए, अनि बादलले पर्वतलाई ढाक्यो ।
And Moses goes up to the mountain, and the cloud covers the mountain;
16 परमप्रभुको महिमा सीनै पर्वतमा आएर बस्यो, र बादलले छ दिनसम्म यसलाई ढाक्यो । सातौँ दिनमा उहाँले बादलभित्रबाट मोशालाई डाक्‍नुभयो ।
and the glory of YHWH dwells on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covers it [for] six days, and He calls to Moses on the seventh day from the midst of the cloud.
17 इस्राएलीहरूको दृष्‍टिमा पर्वतको टुप्पोमा परमप्रभुको महिमाको प्रकटीकरण भस्म गर्ने आगोझैँ देखा पर्‍यो ।
And the appearance of the glory of YHWH [is] as a consuming fire on the top of the mountain, before the eyes of the sons of Israel;
18 मोशा बादलभित्र प्रवेश गरी पर्वतमा उक्ले । तिनी चालिस दिन चालिस रातसम्म पर्वतमा रहे ।
and Moses goes into the midst of the cloud, and goes up to the mountain, and Moses is on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
