Êxodo 24
1 Depois disse a Moysés: Sobe ao Senhor, tu e Aarão, Nadab e Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos d'Israel; e inclinae-vos de longe.
And he said to Moses: Come up to the Lord, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abiu, and seventy of the ancients of Israel, and you shall adore afar off.
2 E Moysés só se chegará ao Senhor; mas elles não se cheguem, nem o povo suba com elle.
And Moses alone shall come up to the Lord, but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people come up with him.
3 Vindo pois Moysés, e contando ao povo todas as palavras do Senhor, e todos os estatutos, então o povo respondeu a uma voz, e disseram: Todas as palavras, que o Senhor tem fallado, faremos.
So Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice: We will do all the words of the Lord, which he hath spoken.
4 E Moysés escreveu todas as palavras do Senhor, e levantou-se pela manhã de madrugada, e edificou um altar ao pé do monte, e doze monumentos, segundo as doze tribus d'Israel;
And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord: and rising in the morning he built an altar at the foot of the mount, and twelve titles according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 E enviou os mancebos dos filhos d'Israel, os quaes offereceram holocaustos, e sacrificaram ao Senhor sacrificios pacificos de bezerros.
And he sent young men of the children of Israel, and they offered holocausts, and sacrificed pacific victims of calves to the Lord.
6 E Moysés tomou a metade do sangue, e a poz em bacias; e a outra metade do sangue espargiu sobre o altar.
Then Moses took half of the blood, and put it into bowls: and the rest he poured upon the altar.
7 E tomou o livro do concerto e o leu aos ouvidos do povo, e elles disseram: Tudo o que o Senhor tem fallado faremos, e obedeceremos.
And taking the book of the covenant, he read it in the hearing of the people: and they said: All things that the Lord hath spoken we will do, we will be obedient.
8 Então tomou Moysés aquelle sangue, e espargiu-o sobre o povo, e disse: Eis-aqui o sangue do concerto que o Senhor tem feito comvosco sobre todas estas palavras.
And he took the blood and sprinkled it upon the people, and he said: This is the blood of the covenant which the Lord hath made with you concerning all these words.
9 E subiram Moysés e Aarão, Nadab e Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos d'Isrel,
Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abiu, and seventy of the ancients of Israel went up:
10 E viram o Deus d'Israel, e debaixo de seus pés havia como uma obra de pedra de saphira, e como o parecer do céu na sua claridade.
And they saw the God of Israel: and under his feet as it were a work of sapphire stone, and as the heaven, when clear.
11 Porém não estendeu a sua mão sobre os escolhidos dos filhos d'Israel, mas viram a Deus, e comeram e beberam.
Neither did he lay his hand upon those of the children of Israel, that retired afar off, and they saw God, and they did eat and drink.
12 Então disse o Senhor a Moysés: Sobe a mim ao monte, e fica lá: e dar-te-hei taboas de pedra, e a lei, e os mandamentos que tenho escripto, para os ensinar.
And the Lord said to Moses: Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and the law, and the commandments which I have written: that thou mayst teach them.
13 E levantou-se Moysés com Josué seu servidor; e subiu Moysés ao monte de Deus,
Moses rose up, and his minister Josue: and Moses going up into the mount of God,
14 E disse aos anciãos: Esperae-nos aqui, até que tornemos a vós: e eis que Aarão e Hur ficam comvosco; quem tiver algum negocio, se chegará a elles.
Said to the ancients: Wait ye here till we return to you. You have Aaron and Hur with you: if any question shall arise, you shall refer it to them.
15 E, subindo Moysés ao monte, a nuvem cobriu o monte.
And when Moses was gone up, a cloud covered the mount.
16 E habitava a gloria do Senhor sobre o monte de Sinai, e a nuvem o cobriu por seis dias: e ao setimo dia chamou a Moysés do meio da nuvem.
And the glory of the Lord dwelt upon Sinai, covering it with a cloud six days: and the seventh day he called him out of the midst of the cloud.
17 E o parecer da gloria do Senhor era como um fogo consumidor no cume do monte, aos olhos dos filhos d'Israel.
And the sight of the glory of the Lord was like a burning fire upon the top of the mount, in the eyes of the children of Israel.
18 E Moysés entrou no meio da nuvem, depois que subiu ao monte: e Moysés esteve no monte quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
And Moses, entering into the midst of the cloud, went up into the mountain: and he was there forty days, and forty nights.
