< Êxodo 19 >

1 Ao terceiro mez da saida dos filhos de Israel da terra do Egypto, no mesmo dia vieram ao deserto de Sinai,
In the third month of the departure of Israel out of the land of Egypt, on this day they came into the wilderness of Sinai:
2 Porque partiram de Rephidim e vieram ao deserto de Sinai, e acamparam-se no deserto: Israel pois ali acampou-se defronte do monte.
For departing out of Raphidim, and coming to the desert of Sinai, they camped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents over against the mountain.
3 E subiu Moysés a Deus, e o Senhor o chamou do monte, dizendo: Assim fallarás á casa de Jacob, e annunciarás aos filhos de Israel:
And Moses went up to God: and the Lord called unto him from the mountain, and said: Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
4 Vós tendes visto o que fiz aos egypcios, como vos levei sobre azas d'aguias, e vos trouxe a mim;
You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, how I have carried you upon the wings of eagles, and have taken you to myself.
5 Agora pois, se diligentemente ouvirdes a minha voz, e guardardes o meu concerto, então sereis a minha propriedade peculiar d'entre todos os povos: porque toda a terra é minha.
If therefore you will hear my voice, and keep my covenant, you shall be my peculiar possession above all people: for all the earth is mine.
6 E vós me sereis um reino sacerdotal e o povo sancto. Estas são as palavras que fallarás aos filhos de Israel.
And you shall be to me a priestly kingdom, and a holy nation. Those are the words thou shalt speak to the children of Israel.
7 E veiu Moysés, e chamou os anciãos do povo, e expoz diante d'elles todas estas palavras, que o Senhor lhe tinha ordenado.
Moses came, and calling together the elders of the people, he declared all the words which the Lord had commanded.
8 Então todo o povo respondeu a uma voz, e disseram: Tudo o que o Senhor tem fallado, faremos. E relatou Moysés ao Senhor as palavras do povo.
And all the people answered together: All that the Lord hath spoken, we will do. And when Moses had related the people’s words to the Lord,
9 E disse o Senhor a Moysés; Eis que eu virei a ti n'uma nuvem espessa, para que o povo ouça, fallando eu comtigo, e para que tambem te creiam eternamente. Porque Moysés tinha annunciado as palavras do seu povo ao Senhor.
The Lord said to him: Lo, now will I come to thee in the darkness of a cloud, that the people may hear me speaking to thee, and may believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
10 Disse tambem o Senhor a Moysés: Vae ao povo, e sanctifica-os hoje e ámanhã, e lavem elles os seus vestidos,
And he said to him: Go to the people, and sanctify them today, and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments.
11 E estejam promptos para o terceiro dia: porquanto no terceiro dia o Senhor descerá ante dos olhos de todo o povo sobre o monte de Sinai.
And let them be ready against the third day: for on the third day the Lord will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.
12 E marcarás limites ao povo em redor, dizendo: Guardae-vos que não subaes ao monte, nem toqueis o seu termo; todo aquelle, que tocar o monte, certamente morrerá.
And thou shalt appoint certain limits to the people round about, and thou shalt say to them: Take heed you go not up into the mount, and that ye touch not the borders thereof: every one that toucheth the mount dying he shall die.
13 Nenhuma mão tocará n'elle: porque certamente será apedrejado ou asseteado; quer seja animal, quer seja homem, não viverá; soando a buzina longamente, então subirão ao monte.
No hands shall touch him, but he shall be stoned to death, or shall be shot through with arrows: whether it be beast, or man, he shall not live. When the trumpet shall begin to sound, then let them go up into the mount.
14 Então Moysés desceu do monte ao povo, e sanctificou o povo; e lavaram os seus vestidos.
And Moses came down from the mount to the people, and sanctified them. And when they had washed their garments,
15 E disse ao povo: Estae promptos ao terceiro dia; e não chegueis a mulher.
He said to them: Be ready against the third day, and come not near your wives.
16 E aconteceu ao terceiro dia, ao amanhecer, que houve trovões e relampagos sobre o monte, e uma espessa nuvem, e um sonido de buzina mui forte, de maneira que estremeceu todo o povo que estava no arraial.
And now the third day was come, and the morning appeared: and behold thunders began to be heard, and lightning to flash, and a very thick cloud to cover the mount, and the noise of the trumpet sounded exceeding loud, and the people that was in the camp, feared.
17 E Moysés levou o povo fóra do arraial ao encontro de Deus; e puzeram-se ao pé do monte.
And when Moses had brought them forth to meet God from the place of the camp, they stood at the bottom of the mount.
18 E todo o monte de Sinai fumegava, porque o Senhor descera sobre elle em fogo: e o seu fumo subiu como fumo d'um forno, e todo o monte tremia grandemente.
And all mount Sinai was on a smoke: because the Lord was come down upon it in fire, and the smoke arose from it as out of a furnace: and all the mount was terrible.
19 E o sonido da buzina ia esforçando-se em grande maneira: Moysés fallava, e Deus lhe respondia em voz alta.
And the sound of the trumpet grew by degrees louder and louder, and was drawn out to a greater length: Moses spoke, and God answered him.
20 E, descendo o Senhor sobre o monte de Sinai, sobre o cume do monte, chamou o Senhor a Moysés ao cume do monte; e Moysés subiu.
And the Lord came down upon mount Sinai, in the very top of the mount, and he called Moses unto the top thereof. And when he was gone up thither,
21 E disse o Senhor a Moysés: Desce, protesta ao povo que não trespassem o termo, para ver o Senhor, e muitos d'elles perecerem.
He said unto him: Go down, and charge the people: lest they should have a mind to pass the limits to see the Lord, and a very great multitude of them should perish.
22 E tambem os sacerdotes, que se chegam ao Senhor, se hão de sanctificar, para que o Senhor não se lance sobre elles.
The priests also that come to the Lord, let them be sanctified, lest he strike them.
23 Então disse Moysés ao Senhor: O povo não poderá subir ao monte de Sinai, porque tu nos tens protestado, dizendo: Marca termos ao monte, e sanctifica-o.
And Moses said to the Lord: The people cannot come up to mount Sinai: for thou did charge, and command, saying: Set limits about the mount, and sanctify it.
24 E disse-lhe o Senhor: Vae, desce: depois subirás tu, e Aarão comtigo: os sacerdotes, porém, e o povo não trespassem o termo para subir ao Senhor, para que não se lance sobre elles.
And the Lord said to him: Go, get thee down: and thou shalt come up, thou and Aaron with thee: but let not the priests and the people pass the limits, nor come up to the Lord, lest he kill them.
25 Então Moysés desceu ao povo, e disse-lhes isto.
And Moses went down to the people and told them all.
