2 Mose 24

1 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Wo ne Aaron, Nadab, Abihu ne Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ aduɔson mforo mmra ha. Mo nyinaa, momma me ne mo ntam ntwe na monsom me.

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

2 Mose nko ara na ɔbɛbɛn Awurade; na monkae nso sɛ, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔn a wɔaka no twe bɛn bepɔ no koraa.”

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

3 Mose kaa mmara a Awurade hyɛɛ no no nyinaa kyerɛɛ nnipa no ma wɔn nyinaa bɔ gyee so sɛ, “Yɛbɛdi ne nyinaa so.”

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 hath said will we perform.

4 Mose twerɛɛ Awurade mmara no nyinaa guu hɔ. Adeɛ kyee anɔpa no, ɔsii afɔrebukyia wɔ bepɔ no ase. Ɔde adum dumienu twaa ho hyiaeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, na Israel mmusuakuo no yɛ dumienu.

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

5 Afei, ɔsomaa mmabunu a wɔwɔ wɔn mu no bi sɛ wɔnkɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ mma Awurade.

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

6 Mose sɔnee mmoa no mogya no fa de guu nkankyee mu, ɛnna ɔtoo ɛfa a aka no petee afɔrebukyia no so.

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

7 Ɔkan nwoma a watwerɛ a ɛyɛ Apam Nwoma a Awurade akwankyerɛ ne ne mmara wɔ mu no kyerɛɛ nnipa no. Nnipa no bɔ gyee so bio sɛ, “Yɛhyɛ bɔ sɛ, yɛbɛdi mmara no nyinaa so.”

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

8 Afei, Mose de mogya a ɛwɔ nkankyee no mu no petee nnipa no so kaa sɛ, “Saa mogya yi hyɛ apam a mo ne Awurade apam ne mmara a ɔde ama mo no mu den.”

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

9 Afei Mose, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu ne Israelfoɔ mpanimfoɔ aduɔson no foro kɔɔ bepɔ no so.

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

10 Wɔhunuu Israel Onyankopɔn. Na ne nan ntiasoɔ hyerɛn te sɛ aboɔdemmoɔ a ne hyerɛn te sɛ ɔsoro hyerɛn.

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 [its] clearness.

11 Ɛwom sɛ mpanimfoɔ no hunuu Onyankopɔn deɛ, nanso wansɛe wɔn. Nokorɛm, wɔn nyinaa bɔɔ mu didii wɔ Awurade anim.

And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and ate and drank.

12 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose sɛ, “Foro bra me nkyɛn wɔ bepɔ so ha na tena ha kɔsi sɛ mede mmaransɛm a matwerɛ agu ɛboɔ so no bɛma wo, na wonam so akyerɛkyerɛ nnipa no.”

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

13 Enti, Mose ne ne ɔboafoɔ Yosua foro kɔɔ Onyankopɔn bepɔ no so.

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

14 Ɔka kyerɛɛ mpanimfoɔ no sɛ, “Montena ha ntwɛn yɛn kɔsi sɛ yɛbɛba. Merekɔ yi, sɛ asɛm bi kyere mo so a, monka nkyerɛ Aaron ne Hur.”

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

15 Mose foro kɔɔ bepɔ no so hɔ na ɔyeraa wɔ omununkum mu.

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

16 Na Awurade animuonyam hyɛɛ Sinai bepɔ no so ma. Na omununkum sii bepɔ no so nnansia. Ne nnanson so no, ɔfrɛɛ Mose firii omununkum no mu.

And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called to Moses from the midst of the cloud.

17 Wɔn a wɔwɔ bepɔ no ase no hunuu anwanwadeɛ no. Na Awurade animuonyam a ɛwɔ bepɔ no so no te sɛ ogya a ɛrederɛ.

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 Na Mose yeraa wɔ bepɔ no so wɔ omununkum no mu. Ɔdii bepɔ no so adaduanan.

And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and ascended the mount: and Moses was on the mount forty days and forty nights.
