Kutoka 34
1 Bwana akamwambia Mose, “Chonga vibao viwili vya mawe kama vile vya kwanza, nami nitaandika juu yake maneno yale yaliyokuwa kwenye vile vibao vya kwanza, ulivyovivunja.
The LORD said to Moses, "Chisel two stone tablets like the first: and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.
2 Uwe tayari asubuhi, kisha upande juu ya Mlima Sinai. Uje mbele zangu kukutana nami huko juu ya mlima.
Be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and station yourself there to me on the top of the mountain.
3 Mtu yeyote asije pamoja nawe, wala asionekane mtu popote juu ya mlima, wala kondoo na mbuzi au ngʼombe wasilishe karibu mbele ya huo mlima.”
No one shall come up with you; neither let anyone be seen throughout all the mountain; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mountain."
4 Kwa hiyo Mose akachonga vibao viwili vya mawe kama vile vya kwanza, naye akapanda juu ya Mlima Sinai asubuhi na mapema, kama Bwana alivyokuwa amemwagiza, akachukua vile vibao viwili vya mawe mikononi mwake.
He chiseled two tablets of stone like the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to Mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand two stone tablets.
5 Kisha Bwana akashuka katika wingu akasimama pamoja naye huko, akalitangaza jina lake, Bwana.
The LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD.
6 Bwana akapita mbele ya Mose, akitangaza, “Bwana, Bwana, Mungu mwenye huruma na neema, asiye mwepesi wa hasira, mwingi wa upendo na uaminifu,
The LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, "The LORD, the LORD, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth,
7 akidumisha upendo kwa maelfu, pia akisamehe uovu, uasi na dhambi. Lakini haachi kuadhibu mwenye hatia; huwaadhibu watoto na watoto wao kwa ajili ya dhambi ya baba zao hata katika kizazi cha tatu na cha nne.”
keeping loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear [the guilty], visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and upon the children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth [generation]."
8 Mara Mose akasujudu na kuabudu.
Moses hurried and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshiped.
9 Mose akasema, “Ee Bwana, kama nimepata kibali mbele zako, basi Bwana uende pamoja nasi. Ingawa watu hawa ni wenye shingo ngumu, samehe uovu wetu na dhambi yetu, tuchukue kuwa urithi wako.”
He said, "If now I have found favor in your sight, please let my Lord go in the midst of us; although this is a stiff-necked people; pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance."
10 Kisha Bwana akasema: “Tazama ninafanya Agano mbele ya watu wako wote. Mbele ya watu wako wote nitafanya maajabu ambayo hayajafanyika katika taifa lolote katika ulimwengu wote. Watu wale mnaoishi miongoni mwao wataona jinsi ilivyo ya kushangaza ile kazi nitakayowafanyia mimi Bwana wenu.
He said, "Look, I make a covenant: before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been worked in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among which you are shall see the work of the LORD; for it is an awesome thing that I do with you.
11 Tii yale ninayokuamuru leo. Tazama nawafukuza mbele yako Waamori, Wakanaani, Wahiti, Waperizi, Wahivi na Wayebusi.
Observe that which I command you this day. Look, I drive out before you the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hethite, and the Girgashite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
12 Uwe mwangalifu, usifanye agano na wale wanaokaa katika nchi ile unayoiendea, la sivyo watakuwa mtego katikati yako.
Be careful, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be for a snare in the midst of you:
13 Bomoa madhabahu yao, vunja mawe yao ya kuabudia na ukatekate nguzo zao za Ashera.
but you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their Asherim;
14 Usiabudu mungu mwingine, kwa kuwa Bwana, ambaye jina lake ni Wivu, ni Mungu mwenye wivu.
for you shall worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
15 “Uwe mwangalifu usifanye agano na wale watu wanaoishi katika nchi, kwa maana wakati wanapojifanyia ukahaba kwa miungu yao na kuwatolea kafara, watakualika wewe nawe utakula sadaka za matambiko yao.
Do not make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, lest they play the prostitute after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and one call you and you eat of his sacrifice;
16 Unapowachagua baadhi ya binti zao kuwa wake wa wana wenu na binti hao wakajifanyia ukahaba kwa miungu yao, watawaongoza wana wenu kufanya vivyo hivyo.
and you take of their daughters to your sons, and their daughters play the prostitute after their gods, and make your sons play the prostitute after their gods.
17 “Usijifanyie sanamu za kusubu.
You shall make no cast idols for yourselves.
18 “Utaadhimisha Sikukuu ya Mikate Isiyotiwa Chachu. Kwa siku saba mtakula mikate isiyotiwa chachu, kama nilivyokuamuru. Fanya hivi kwa wakati ulioamriwa, katika mwezi wa Abibu, ndio mwezi wa nne, kwa kuwa katika mwezi huo ndipo wewe ulipotoka Misri.
"You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out from Egypt.
19 “Mzaliwa wa kwanza wa kila tumbo ni mali yangu, pamoja na wazaliwa wa kwanza wote wa kiume wa mifugo yako, ikiwa ni wa ngʼombe au wa kondoo au mbuzi.
All firstborn of the womb are mine, and all your male cattle, the firstborn of ox or sheep.
20 Utakomboa mzaliwa wa kwanza wa punda kwa mwana-kondoo, lakini kama humkomboi, utavunja shingo yake. Utakomboa wazaliwa wako wa kwanza wote wa kiume. “Mtu yeyote asije mbele zangu mikono mitupu.
The firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb: and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. No one shall appear before me empty.
21 “Kwa siku sita utafanya kazi, lakini siku ya saba utapumzika, hata ikiwa ni majira ya kulima au ya kuvuna lazima upumzike.
"Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest.
22 “Utaadhimisha Sikukuu ya Majuma kwa malimbuko ya mavuno ya ngano, na Sikukuu ya Mavuno mwishoni mwa mwaka.
You shall observe the feast of weeks with the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of harvest at the year's end.
23 Mara tatu kwa mwaka wanaume wako wote watakuja mbele za Bwana Mwenyezi, Mungu wa Israeli.
Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.
24 Nitawafukuza mataifa mbele yako na kupanua mipaka ya nchi yako, wala hakuna mtu yeyote atakayeitamani nchi yako wakati unapokwenda mara tatu kila mwaka kuonana na Bwana Mungu wako.
For I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire your land when you go up to appear before the LORD, your God, three times in the year.
25 “Usinitolee damu ya dhabihu pamoja na kitu chochote chenye chachu, wala usibakize dhabihu yoyote ya Sikukuu ya Pasaka mpaka asubuhi.
"You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the Passover be left to the morning.
26 “Leta matunda ya kwanza yaliyo bora zaidi ya ardhi yako katika nyumba ya Bwana Mungu wako. “Usimchemshe mwana-mbuzi katika maziwa ya mama yake.”
You shall bring the first of the first fruits of your ground to the house of the LORD your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother's milk."
27 Kisha Bwana akamwambia Mose, “Andika maneno haya, kwa maana kulingana na maneno haya, nimefanya Agano na wewe pamoja na Israeli.”
The LORD said to Moses, "Write you these words: for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel."
28 Mose alikuwa huko pamoja na Bwana kwa siku arobaini usiku na mchana bila kula chakula wala kunywa maji. Naye akaandika juu ya vibao maneno ya Agano, yaani zile Amri Kumi.
He was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread, nor drank water. He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
29 Mose alipoteremka kutoka Mlima Sinai akiwa na vile vibao viwili vya Ushuhuda mikononi mwake, hakujua kuwa uso wake ulikuwa ukingʼaa, kwa sababu alikuwa amezungumza na Bwana.
It happened, when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mountain, that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him.
30 Aroni na Waisraeli wote walipomwona Mose, kuwa uso wake unangʼaa, waliogopa kumkaribia.
When Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, look, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him.
31 Lakini Mose akawaita, kwa hiyo Aroni na viongozi wote wa jumuiya wakarudi, naye akazungumza nao.
Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the leaders of the congregation returned to him; and Moses spoke to them.
32 Baadaye Waisraeli wote wakamkaribia, naye akawapa amri zote Bwana alizompa katika Mlima wa Sinai.
Afterward all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them all of the commandments that the LORD had spoken with him on Mount Sinai.
33 Mose alipomaliza kuzungumza nao, akaweka utaji kwenye uso wake.
When Moses was done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.
34 Lakini kila wakati Mose alipoingia mbele za Bwana kuzungumza naye, aliondoa ule utaji mpaka alipotoka nje. Naye alipotoka nje na kuwaambia Waisraeli lile ambalo ameagizwa,
But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spoke to the children of Israel that which he was commanded.
35 waliona kuwa uso wake unangʼaa. Kisha Mose angeliweka tena utaji juu ya uso wake mpaka alipokwenda kuzungumza na Bwana.
The children of Israel saw Moses' face, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
