Baʼuu 19
1 Israaʼeloonni erga Gibxii baʼanii as jiʼa sadaffaa keessa guyyuma itti Gibxii baʼan sana Gammoojjii Siinaa gaʼan.
In the third month of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in this day they have come into the wilderness of Sinai,
2 Isaanis erga Refiidiimii kaʼanii booddee Gammoojjii Siinaa seenan; sabni Israaʼelis Gammoojjii sana keessa fuullee tulluu sanaa qubatan.
and they journey from Rephidim, and enter the wilderness of Sinai, and encamp in the wilderness; and Israel encamps there before the mountain.
3 Museenis gara Waaqaatti ol baʼe; Waaqayyos tulluu irraa isa waamee akkana jedheen; “Ati mana Yaaqoobiin akkana jetta; saba Israaʼelittis waan kana himi:
And Moses has gone up to God, and YHWH calls to him out of the mountain, saying, “Thus you say to the house of Jacob, and declare to the sons of Israel:
4 ‘Waan ani warra Gibxi godhee fi akka ani itti qoochoo risaa irratti isin baadhee gara kootti isin fide isin mataan keessan iyyuu argitaniirtu.
You have seen that which I have done to the Egyptians, and [how] I carry you on eagles’ wings and bring you to Myself.
5 Ammas isin yoo naaf ajajamtan, yoo kakuu koo eegdan isin saboota hunda keessaa qabeenya addaa naaf taatu. Yoo lafti hundinuu kan koo taʼe illee,
And now, if you really listen to My voice, then you have kept My covenant, and have been a special treasure to Me more than all the peoples, for all the earth [is] Mine;
6 isin mootummaa lubootaatii fi saba qulqulluu naaf taatu.’ Dubbiin ati saba Israaʼelitti himuu qabdus kanuma.”
and you are to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation: these [are] the words which you speak to the sons of Israel.”
7 Museen deebiʼee maanguddoota sabaa walitti waamee, dubbii akka inni dubbatuuf Waaqayyo isa ajaje sana hunda fuula isaanii duratti dhiʼeesse.
And Moses comes, and calls for [the] elderly of the people, and sets before them all these words which YHWH has commanded him;
8 Jarri hundinuus afaan tokkoon, “Nu waan Waaqayyo jedhe hundumaa ni goona” jedhanii deebisan; Museen immoo waan jarri jedhan deebisee Waaqayyotti fide.
and all the people answer together and say, “All that YHWH has spoken we do”; and Moses returns the words of the people to YHWH.
9 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Akka sabni kun anaa si wajjin dubbatu dhagaʼee yeroo hunda si amanatuuf kunoo ani duumessa yabbuu keessaan gara kee nan dhufa.” Ergasiis Museen waan sabni sun jedhe Waaqayyotti hime.
And YHWH says to Moses, “Behold, I am coming to you in the thickness of the cloud, so that the people hear in My speaking with you, and also believe in you for all time”; and Moses declares the words of the people to YHWH.
10 Waaqayyos Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Gara sabaa dhaqiitii harʼaa fi bori isaan qulqulleessi. Akka isaan wayyaa isaanii miiccatanii
And YHWH says to Moses, “Go to the people and you have sanctified them today and tomorrow, and they have washed their garments,
11 guyyaa sadaffaaf qophaaʼan godhi; gaafa sana utuma sabni hundi ilaaluu Waaqayyo Tulluu Siinaa irratti gad ni buʼaatii.
and have been prepared for the third day; for on the third day YHWH comes down on Mount Sinai before the eyes of all the people.
12 Naannoo tullichaatti saba sanaaf daangaa tolchiitii akkana jedhiin; ‘Isin akka tulluu sanatti ol hin baane yookaan akka qarqara isaa illee hin tuqne of eeggadhaa. Namni tulluu sana tuqu kam iyyuu haa ajjeefamu.
And you have made a border [for] the people all around, saying, Take heed to yourselves, going up into the mountain or coming against its extremity; whoever is coming against the mountain is certainly put to death;
13 Inni dhagaadhaan haa tumamu yookaan xiyyaan haa waraanamu; harki tokko iyyuu isa hin tuqin; horiis taʼu namni akka jiraatu hin eeyyamamuuf.’ Isaan yeroo malakanni utuu gargar hin citin afuufamu qofa tulluutti ol baʼuu dandaʼu.”
a hand does not come against him, for he is certainly stoned or shot through, whether beast or man—it does not live; in the prolonging of the ram’s horn they go up into the mountain.”
14 Museen tulluu irraa gara sabaatti gad buʼee saba sana qulqulleesse; isaanis uffata isaanii miiccatan.
And Moses comes down from the mountain to the people, and sanctifies the people, and they wash their garments;
15 Innis saba sanaan, “Guyyaa sadaffaaf of qopheessaa; dubartii biras hin gaʼinaa” jedhe.
and he says to the people, “Be prepared for the third day, do not come near to a woman.”
16 Ganama guyyaa sadaffaa sana tulluu sana irra bakakkaa, balaqqeessaa fi duumessa yabbuu, akkasumas sagalee malakataa guddaatu dhagaʼame. Warri iddoo qubataa sana keessa jiraatan hundis ni hollatan.
And it comes to pass, on the third day, while it is morning, that there are voices, and lightnings, and a heavy cloud on the mountain, and the sound of a very strong horn; and all the people who [are] in the camp tremble.
17 Museenis saba sana iddoo qubannaatii baasee gara Waaqaatti fide; jarris miilla tulluu sanaa jala dhadhaabatan.
And Moses brings out the people from the camp to meet God, and they station themselves at the lower part of the mountain,
18 Tulluun Siinaa hundis sababii Waaqayyo ibiddaan irratti gad buʼeef aaraan haguugame. Aarri sunis akkuma aara boolla ibiddaatii baʼuutti ol baʼe; tulluun sunis guutumaan guutuutti akka malee raafame;
and Mount Sinai [is] wholly [in] smoke from the presence of YHWH, who has come down on it in fire, and its smoke goes up as smoke of the furnace, and the whole mountain trembles exceedingly;
19 sagaleen malakataa ittuma guddachaa deeme. Museenis ni dubbate; sagaleen Waaqaas deebii kenneef.
and the sound of the horn is going on, and [is] very strong; Moses speaks, and God answers him with a voice.
20 Waaqayyo fiixee Tulluu Siinaa irratti gad buʼee Musee gara fiixee tulluu sanaatti ol waame. Museenis ol baʼe;
And YHWH comes down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and YHWH calls for Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses goes up.
21 Waaqayyo immoo akkana isaan jedhe; “Akka isaan Waaqayyo ilaaluuf jedhanii daarii hin dabarree fi akka isaan keessaas namni baayʼeen hin duuneef gad buʼiitii isaan akeekkachiisi.
And YHWH says to Moses, “Go down, protest to the people, lest they break through to YHWH to see, and many of them have fallen;
22 Akka Waaqayyo isaan hin balleessineef luboonni Waaqayyotti dhiʼaatan iyyuu of haa qulqulleessan.”
and also the priests who are coming near to YHWH sanctify themselves, lest YHWH break forth on them.”
23 Museen immoo Waaqayyoon, “Sababii ati mataan kee, ‘Naannoo Tullichaatti daangaa dhaabiitii isa qulqulleessiitii addaan baasi’ jettee akeekkachiisa nuu kenniteef sabni kun Tulluu Siinaatti ol baʼuu hin dandaʼu” jedhe.
And Moses says to YHWH, “The people [are] unable to come up to Mount Sinai, for You have protested to us, saying, Make a border [for] the mountain, then you have sanctified it.”
24 Waaqayyos, “Gadi buʼiitii Aroonin fidii kottu. Garuu luboonnii fi uummanni gara Waaqayyootti ol dhufuuf jedhanii daangaa hin darbin; yoo kanaa achii inni isaan balleessa” jedhee deebise.
And YHWH says to him, “Go, descend, then you have come up, you and Aaron with you; and the priests and the people do not break through to come up to YHWH, lest He break forth on them.”
25 Museenis gad buʼee waan kana uummatatti hime.
And Moses goes down to the people and speaks to them.
