< Êxodo 24 >

1 Depois disse a Moisés: Sobe ao Senhor, tu e Aarão, Nadab e Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel; e inclinai-vos de longe.
And to Moses he said, Go up to the Lord, you and Aaron and Nadab and Abiud, and seventy of the elders of Israel: and they shall worship the Lord from a distance.
2 E Moisés só se chegará ao Senhor; mas eles não se cheguem, nem o povo suba com ele.
And Moses alone shall draw near to God; and they shall not draw near, and the people shall not come up with them.
3 Vindo pois Moisés, 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 falado, faremos.
And Moses went in and related to the people all the words of God and the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, saying, All the words which the Lord has spoken, we will do and be obedient.
4 E Moisés 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 tribos de Israel;
And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the mountain, and [set up] twelve stones for the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 E enviou os mancebos dos filhos de Israel, os quais ofereceram holocaustos, e sacrificaram ao Senhor sacrifícios pacíficos de bezerros.
And he sent forth the young men of the children of Israel, and they offered whole burnt offerings, and they sacrificed young calves as a peace-offering to God.
6 E Moisés tomou a metade do sangue, e a pôs em bacias; e a outra metade do sangue espargiu sobre o altar.
And Moses took half the blood and poured it into bowls, and half the blood he poured out upon the altar.
7 E tomou o livro do concerto e o leu aos ouvidos do povo, e eles disseram: Tudo o que o Senhor tem falado faremos, e obedeceremos.
And he took the book of the covenant and read it in the ears of the people, and they said, All things whatever the Lord has spoken we will do and listen therein.
8 Então tomou Moisés aquele sangue, e espargiu-o sobre o povo, e disse: eis aqui o sangue do concerto que o Senhor tem feito convosco sobre todas estas palavras.
And Moses took the blood and sprinkled it upon the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has made with you concerning all these words.
9 E subiram Moisés e Aarão, Nadab e Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel,
And Moses went up, and Aaron, and Nadab and Abiud, and seventy of the elders of Israel.
10 E viram o Deus de Israel, e debaixo de seus pés havia como uma obra de pedra de safira, e como o parecer do céu na sua claridade.
And they saw the place where the God of Israel stood; and under his feet was as it were a work of sapphire slabs, and as it were the appearance of the firmament of heaven in its purity.
11 Porém não estendeu a sua mão sobre os escolhidos dos filhos de Israel, mas viram a Deus, e comeram e beberam.
And of the chosen ones of Israel there was not even one missing, and they appeared in the place of God, and did eat and drink.
12 Então disse o Senhor a Moisés: Sobe a mim ao monte, e fica lá: e dar-te-ei tábuas de pedra, e a lei, e os mandamentos que tenho escrito, para os ensinar.
And the Lord said to Moses, Come up to me into the mountain, and be there; and I will give you the tables of stone, the law and the commandments, which I have written to give them laws.
13 E levantou-se Moisés com Josué seu servidor; e subiu Moisés ao monte de Deus,
And Moses rose up and Joshua his attendant, and they went up into the mount of God.
14 E disse aos anciãos: esperai-nos aqui, até que tornemos a vós: e eis que Aarão e Hur ficam convosco; quem tiver algum negócio, se chegará a eles.
And to the elders they said, Rest there till we return to you; and behold, Aaron and Or are with you: if any man have a cause to be tried, let them go to them.
15 E, subindo Moisés ao monte, a nuvem cobriu o monte.
And Moses and Joshua went up to the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
16 E habitava a glória do Senhor sobre o monte de Sinai, e a nuvem o cobriu por seis dias: e ao sétimo dia chamou a Moisés do meio da nuvem.
And the glory of God came down upon the mount Sina, and the cloud covered it six days; and the Lord called Moses on the seventh day out of the midst of the cloud.
17 E o parecer da glória do Senhor era como um fogo consumidor no cume do monte, aos olhos dos filhos de Israel.
And the appearance of the glory of the Lord was as burning fire on the top of the mountain, before the children of Israel.
18 E Moisés entrou no meio da nuvem, depois que subiu ao monte: e Moisés esteve no monte quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and went up to the mountain, and was there in the mountain forty days and forty nights.
