Izlazak 24
1 I reèe Mojsiju: izaði gore ka Gospodu ti i Aron i Nadav i Avijud i sedamdeset starješina Izrailjevih, i poklonite se izdaleka.
The Lord told Moses, “Come up to the Lord—you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders. You are to worship at a distance.
2 I Mojsije sam neka pristupi ka Gospodu, a oni neka ne pristupe; i narod neka ne ide na gore s njim.
Only Moses may approach the Lord—the others must not come near. The people may not go up the mountain with him.”
3 I doðe Mojsije, i kaza narodu sve rijeèi Gospodnje i sve zakone. I odgovori narod jednijem glasom i rekoše: èiniæemo sve što je rekao Gospod.
Moses went and told the people all the Lord's instructions and regulations. They all responded together: “We will do everything the Lord says!”
4 I napisa Mojsije sve rijeèi Gospodnje, i ustavši rano naèini oltar pod gorom i dvanaest stupova za dvanaest plemena Izrailjevih.
Moses wrote down everything the Lord had said. He got up early the following morning and built an altar at the bottom of the mountain, and set up twelve pillars for each of the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 I posla mladiæe izmeðu sinova Izrailjevih, koji prinesoše žrtve paljenice i prinesoše teoce na žrtve zahvalne Gospodu.
Then he sent out some young Israelite men who went and offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to the Lord.
6 I uzevši Mojsije polovinu krvi, metnu u zdjele, a polovinu krvi izli na oltar.
Moses put half of the blood into bowls, and sprinkled the other half on the altar.
7 I uze knjigu zavjetnu i proèita narodu. A oni rekoše: što je god rekao Gospod èiniæemo i slušaæemo.
Then he picked up the Book of the Agreement and read it to the people. They replied, “We will do everything the Lord says. We will obey.”
8 A Mojsije uze krv, i pokropi njom narod, i reèe: evo krv zavjeta, koji uèini Gospod s vama za sve rijeèi ove.
So Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said, “Look, this is the blood of the agreement that the Lord has made with you following these terms.”
9 Potom otide gore Mojsije i Aron, Nadav i Avijud, i sedamdeset starješina Izrailjevih.
Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders climbed up the mountain,
10 I vidješe Boga Izrailjeva, i pod nogama njegovijem kao djelo od kamena safira i kao nebo kad je vedro.
and they saw the God of Israel. Under his feet was something like a tiled pavement made of lapis lazuli, as clear blue as the sky itself.
11 I ne pruži ruke svoje na izabrane izmeðu sinova Izrailjevih, nego vidješe Boga, pa jedoše i piše.
But God did not harm the leaders of Israel—they saw him, and they ate and drank a sacred meal.
12 I reèe Gospod Mojsiju: popni se k meni na goru, i ostani ovdje, i daæu ti ploèe od kamena, zakon i zapovijesti, koje sam napisao, da ih uèiš.
Then the Lord told Moses, “Come up the mountain to me, and stay here, so I can give you the stone tablets, with the instructions and commands I have written for them to learn.”
13 Tada usta Mojsije s Isusom, koji ga služaše, i izaðe Mojsije na goru Božiju.
So Moses left with Joshua his attendant and climbed up the mountain of God.
14 A starješinama reèe: sjedite tu dok se vratimo k vama; a eto Aron i Or s vama; ko bi imao što, neka ide k njima.
He told the elders, “Stay here and wait for us to return. Aaron and Hur are with you. If anyone has a problem, they can talk with them.”
15 I otide Mojsije na goru, a oblak pokri goru.
As Moses climbed up on the mountain, the cloud covered it
16 I bijaše slava Gospodnja na gori Sinajskoj, i oblak je pokrivaše šest dana; a u sedmi dan viknu Mojsija ispred oblaka.
The Lord's glory came down on Mount Sinai, covering it for six days. On the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from inside the cloud.
17 I slava Gospodnja bješe po viðenju kao oganj koji sažiže na vrh gore pred sinovima Izrailjevim.
To the Israelites the Lord's glory looked like a burning fire on the top of the mountain.
18 I Mojsije uðe usred oblaka, i pope se na goru; i osta Mojsije na gori èetrdeset dana i èetrdeset noæi.
Moses went into the cloud as he climbed up on the mountain, and he stayed on the mountain for forty days and nights.
