Exodus 19
1 Ní oṣù kẹta tí àwọn Israẹli jáde kúrò ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, ni ọjọ́ náà gan an ni wọ́n dé aginjù Sinai.
In the third month of the departure of Israel from the land of Egypt, in that day, they arrived in the wilderness of Sinai.
2 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n gbéra kúrò ní Refidimu, wọ́n wọ ijù Sinai, wọ́n sì tẹ̀dó síbẹ̀, níbẹ̀ ni Israẹli sì dó sí ní iwájú òkè ńlá.
Thus, setting out from Raphidim, and going directly to the desert of Sinai, they encamped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents away from the region of the mountain.
3 Mose sì gòkè tọ Ọlọ́run lọ. Olúwa sì ké pè é láti orí òkè náà wá pé, “Èyí ni ìwọ yóò sọ fún ilé Jakọbu àti ohun tí ìwọ yóò sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli:
Then Moses ascended to God. And the Lord called to him from the mountain, and he said: “This you shall say to the house of Jacob, and announce to the sons of Israel:
4 ‘Ẹ̀yin ti rí ohun tí mo ti ṣe sí àwọn ará Ejibiti, àti bí mo ti gbé e yín ní apá ìyẹ́ idì.
‘You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, in what way I carried you upon the wings of eagles and how I have taken you for myself.
5 Nísinsin yìí, bí ẹ̀yin bá ṣe ìgbọ́ràn sí mi dé ojú àmì, tí ẹ sì pa májẹ̀mú mi mọ́, nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin ó jẹ́ ìṣúra fún mi ju gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè yòókù lọ. Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé gbogbo ayé ni tèmi.
If, therefore, you will hear my voice, and you will keep my covenant, you will be to me a particular possession out of all people. For all the earth is mine.
6 Ẹ̀yin yóò sì máa jẹ́ ilẹ̀ ọba àwọn àlùfáà fún mi, orílẹ̀-èdè mímọ́.’ Ìwọ̀nyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ ti ìwọ yóò sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.”
And you will be to me a priestly kingdom and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you will speak to the sons of Israel.”
7 Mose sì tọ àwọn ènìyàn wá, ó sí pe àwọn àgbàgbà láàrín àwọn ènìyàn jọ. Ó sì gbé gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ ti Olúwa pàṣẹ fún un láti sọ ní iwájú wọn.
Moses went, and calling together those greater by birth among the people, he set forth all the words which the Lord had commanded.
8 Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà sì pa ohùn wọn pọ̀ wọ́n sì dáhùn wí pé, “Àwa yóò ṣe ohun gbogbo ti Olúwa wí.” Mose sì mú ìdáhùn wọn padà tọ Olúwa lọ.
And all the people responded together: “Everything that the Lord has spoken, we shall do.” And when Moses had related the words of the people to the Lord,
9 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Èmi yóò tọ̀ ọ́ wá nínú ìkùùkuu ṣíṣú dudu, kí àwọn ènìyàn lè gbọ́ ohùn mi nígbà ti mo bá ń bá ọ sọ̀rọ̀, kí wọn kí ó lè máa gbà ọ́ gbọ́.” Nígbà náà ni Mose sọ ohun tí àwọn ènìyàn wí fún Olúwa.
the Lord said to him: “Soon now, I will come to you in the mist of a cloud, so that the people may hear me speaking to you, and so that they may believe you continuously.” Therefore, Moses reported the words of the people to the Lord,
10 Olúwa sì wí fún Mose pé, “Tọ àwọn ènìyàn lọ kí o sì yà wọ́n sí mímọ́ ni òní àti ni ọ̀la. Jẹ́ kí wọn kí ó fọ aṣọ wọn.
who said to him: “Go to the people, and sanctify them today, and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments.
11 Kí wọn kí ó sì múra di ọjọ́ kẹta, nítorí ni ọjọ́ náà ni Olúwa yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí orí òkè Sinai ni ojú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn.
And let them be prepared on the third day. For on the third day, the Lord will descend, in the sight of all the people, over Mount Sinai.
12 Kí ìwọ kí ó ṣe ààlà fún àwọn ènìyàn, kí ìwọ kí ó sì wí fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ kíyèsí ara yín, kí ẹ má ṣe gun orí òkè lọ, kí ẹ má tilẹ̀ fi ọwọ́ ba etí rẹ̀; ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá fi ọwọ́ kan òkè náà, ó dájú, pípa ni a ó pa á.
And you will establish limits for the people all around, and you will say to them: ‘Take care not to ascend to the mountain, and that you do not touch its parts. All who touch the mountain, shall die a death.’
13 A ó sọ ọ́ ní òkúta tàbí kí a ta á ní ọfà, ọwọ́kọ́wọ́ kò gbọdọ̀ kàn án. Ìbá à ṣe ènìyàn tàbí ẹranko, òun kì yóò wà láààyè.’ Nígbà ti ìpè bá dún nìkan ni kí wọn ó gun òkè wá.”
Hands shall not touch him, but he shall be crushed with stones, or he shall be pierced through with darts. Whether it be a beast or a man, he shall not live. For when the trumpet begins to sound, perhaps they might go up toward the mountain.”
14 Mose sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti orí òkè náà wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn, ó yà wọ́n sí mímọ́, wọ́n sì fọ aṣọ wọn.
And Moses came down from the mountain to the people, and he sanctified them. And when they had washed their garments,
15 Ó sì sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ẹ múra sílẹ̀ di ọjọ́ kẹta; ẹ má ṣe bá aya yín lòpọ̀.”
he said to them, “Be prepared on the third day, and do not draw near to your wives.”
16 Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kẹta, àrá àti mọ̀nàmọ́ná sì wà pẹ̀lú ìkùùkuu tí ó ṣú dudu ní orí òkè, ìpè ńlá sì dún kíkankíkan tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà ni ibùdó wárìrì.
And now, the third day arrived and the morning dawned. And behold, thunders began to be heard, and also lightning flashed, and a very dense cloud covered the mountain, and the noise of the trumpet resounded vehemently. And the people who were in the camp were fearful.
17 Mose sì kó àwọn ènìyàn tí ó jáde láti ibùdó wá pàdé Ọlọ́run, wọ́n dúró nítòsí òkè.
And when Moses had led them out to meet God, from the place of the camp, they stood at the base of the mountain.
18 Èéfín sì bo òkè Sinai nítorí Olúwa sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí orí rẹ̀ nínú iná. Èéfín náà sì ń ru sókè bí èéfín iná ìléru, gbogbo òkè náà sì mì tìtì.
Then all of Mount Sinai was smoking. For the Lord had descended over it with fire, and smoke ascended from it, as from a furnace. And the entire mountain was terrible.
19 Ohùn ìpè sì ń rinlẹ̀ dòdò. Mose sọ̀rọ̀, Ọlọ́run sì fi àrá dá a lóhùn.
And the sound of the trumpet gradually increased to be louder, and extended to be longer. Moses was speaking, and God was answering him.
20 Olúwa sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí orí òkè Sinai, o sì pe Mose wá sí orí òkè náà. Mose sì gun orí òkè.
And the Lord descended over Mount Sinai, to the very top of the mountain, and he called Moses to its summit. And when he had ascended there,
21 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Sọ̀kalẹ̀, kí ó sì kìlọ̀ fún àwọn ènìyàn, kí wọn má ṣe fi tipátipá wá ọ̀nà láti wo Olúwa, bí wọn bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ọ̀pọ̀ wọn yóò ṣègbé.
he said to him: “Descend, and call the people to witness, lest they might be willing to transgress the limits, so as to see the Lord, and a very great multitude of them might perish.
22 Kódà àwọn àlùfáà tí ó ń wá síwájú Olúwa gbọdọ̀ ya ara wọn sí mímọ́ bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́. Olúwa yóò kọlù wọ́n.”
Likewise, the priests who approach toward the Lord, let them be sanctified, lest he strike them down.”
23 Mose wí fún Olúwa pé, “Àwọn ènìyàn kì yóò lè wá sí orí òkè Sinai, nítorí ìwọ fúnra rẹ̀ ti kìlọ̀ fún wa pé, ‘Ṣe ààlà yí òkè ká, kí o sì yà á sí mímọ́.’”
And Moses said to the Lord: “The people are not able to ascend to Mount Sinai. For you testified, and you commanded, saying: ‘Set limits around the mountain, and sanctify it.’”
24 Olúwa sì wí fún Mose pé, “Sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ, mú Aaroni gòkè wá pẹ̀lú rẹ. Ṣùgbọ́n kí àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ènìyàn má ṣe fi tipátipá gòkè tọ Olúwa. Bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́ yóò kọlù wọ́n.”
And the Lord said to him, “Go, descend. And you shall ascend, and Aaron with you. But let not the priests or the people transgress the limits, nor ascend to the Lord, lest perhaps he may put them to death.”
25 Mose sọ̀kalẹ̀ tọ àwọn ènìyàn lọ. Ó sì sọ ohun tí Olúwa wí fún wọn.
And Moses descended to the people, and he explained everything to them.
