Êxodo 24

1 Ele disse a Moisés: “Suba a Yahweh, você e Arão, Nadab, e Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel; e adore à distância”.

And he said to Moses, Come up to the LORD, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship you afar off.

2 Somente Moisés se aproximará de Iavé, mas eles não se aproximarão. O povo não subirá com ele”.

And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall not come near; neither shall the people go up with him.

3 Moisés veio e disse ao povo todas as palavras de Javé, e todas as ordenanças; e todo o povo respondeu com uma só voz, e disse: “Todas as palavras que Javé disse, nós faremos”.

And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD has said will we do.

4 Moisés escreveu todas as palavras de Javé, depois levantou-se de manhã cedo e construiu um altar na base da montanha, com doze pilares para as doze tribos de Israel.

And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.

5 Ele enviou jovens das crianças de Israel, que ofereceram holocaustos e sacrificaram ofertas pacíficas de gado a Iavé.

And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to the LORD.

6 Moisés tomou metade do sangue e o colocou em bacias, e metade do sangue que aspergiu sobre o altar.

And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basins; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.

7 Ele pegou o livro do pacto e o leu na audiência do povo, e eles disseram: “Faremos tudo o que Javé disse, e seremos obedientes”.

And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD has said will we do, and be obedient.

8 Moisés tomou o sangue, aspergiu-o sobre o povo e disse: “Olha, este é o sangue do pacto, que Javé fez contigo a respeito de todas estas palavras”.

And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD has made with you concerning all these words.

9 Então Moisés, Arão, Nadab, Abihu, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel subiram.

Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:

10 Eles viram o Deus de Israel. Sob seus pés era como uma obra pavimentada de pedra de safira, como os céus para a claridade.

And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.

11 Ele não colocou sua mão sobre os nobres dos filhos de Israel. Eles viram Deus, e comeram e beberam.

And on the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.

12 Yahweh disse a Moisés: “Vem até mim na montanha, e fica aqui, e eu te darei as tábuas de pedra com a lei e os mandamentos que escrevi, para que tu as ensines”.

And the LORD said to Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give you tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that you may teach them.

13 Moisés se levantou com Josué, seu servo, e Moisés subiu à Montanha de Deus.

And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God.

14 Ele disse aos anciãos: “Esperem aqui por nós, até voltarmos a vocês”. Eis que Aarão e Hur estão com vocês”. Quem estiver envolvido em uma disputa pode ir até eles”.

And he said to the elders, Tarry you here for us, until we come again to you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come to them.

15 Moisés subiu na montanha, e a nuvem cobriu a montanha.

And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.

16 A glória de Yahweh assentou no Monte Sinai, e a nuvem a cobriu durante seis dias. No sétimo dia ele chamou Moisés para fora do meio da nuvem.

And the glory of the LORD stayed on mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called to Moses out of the middle of the cloud.

17 A aparência da glória de Javé era como devorar fogo no topo da montanha aos olhos dos filhos de Israel.

And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel.

18 Moisés entrou no meio da nuvem e subiu na montanha; e Moisés estava na montanha por quarenta dias e quarenta noites.

And Moses went into the middle of the cloud, and got him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.
