Exodus 24

1 Ní ìgbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Gòkè tọ Olúwa wá, ìwọ àti Aaroni, Nadabu àti Abihu àti àádọ́rin àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli. Ẹ̀yin kì ó sìn ni òkèèrè réré.

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Come up to the LORD—you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel’s elders—and you are to worship at a distance.

2 Ṣùgbọ́n Mose nìkan ṣoṣo ni yóò súnmọ́ Olúwa; àwọn tókù kò gbọdọ̀ súnmọ́ tòsí ibẹ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn kò gbọdọ̀ gòkè wá pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.”

Moses alone shall approach the LORD, but the others must not come near. And the people may not go up with him.”

3 Nígbà ti Mose lọ láti sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn, gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ àti òfin Olúwa, wọ́n wí ní ohùn kan pé, “Gbogbo ohun ti Olúwa wí ni àwa yóò ṣe.”

When Moses came and told the people all the words and ordinances of the LORD, they all responded with one voice: “All the words that the LORD has spoken, we will do.”

4 Nígbà náà ni Mose kọ gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa sọ sílẹ̀. Ó dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, ó sì mọ pẹpẹ ni ẹsẹ̀ òkè náà. Ó ṣe ọ̀wọ́n òkúta méjìlá. Èyí ti ó dúró fún àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli méjìlá.

And Moses wrote down all the words of the LORD. Early the next morning he got up and built an altar at the base of the mountain, along with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel.

5 Nígbà náà ni ó rán àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin Israẹli, wọ́n sì rú ẹbọ sísun, wọ́n fi ọ̀dọ́ màlúù rú ẹbọ àlàáfíà si Olúwa.

Then he sent out some young men of Israel, and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to the LORD.

6 Mose bu ìlàjì ẹ̀jẹ̀ ẹran sínú abọ́, ó sì fi ìlàjì tókù wọn ara pẹpẹ.

Moses took half of the blood and put it in bowls, and the other half he sprinkled on the altar.

7 Nígbà náà ni ó sì mú ìwé májẹ̀mú, ó sì kà á sí àwọn ènìyàn. Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Àwa yóò ṣe gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa wí. Àwa yóò sì gbọ́rọ̀.”

Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it to the people, who replied, “All that the LORD has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient.”

8 Nígbà náà ni Mose gbé ẹ̀jẹ̀, ó sì wọn sí àwọn ènìyàn náà lára pé, “Èyí ni ẹ̀jẹ̀ májẹ̀mú tí Olúwa ti ṣe pẹ̀lú yín ni ìbámu pẹ̀lú àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí.”

So Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said, “This is the blood of the covenant that the LORD has made with you in accordance with all these words.”

9 Mose àti Aaroni, Nadabu àti Abihu àti àádọ́rin àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli gòkè lọ.

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

10 Wọ́n sì rí Ọlọ́run Israẹli. Ní abẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ ni ohun kan bí i pèpéle ti a fi òkúta safire ṣe wà. Èyí ti ó mọ́ nigínnigín bí àwọ̀ sánmọ̀ fúnra rẹ̀.

and they saw the God of Israel. Under His feet was a work like a pavement made of sapphire, as clear as the sky itself.

11 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kò gbé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sókè sí àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli wọ̀nyí; wọ́n ri Ọlọ́run, wọ́n jẹ, wọ́n sì mu.

But God did not lay His hand on the nobles of Israel; they saw Him, and they ate and drank.

12 Olúwa sì sọ fún Mose pé, “Gòkè wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi, kí o sì dúró níhìn-ín. Èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní wàláà òkúta pẹ̀lú òfin àti ìlànà tí mo ti kọ sílẹ̀ fún ìtọ́sọ́nà wọn.”

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Come up to Me on the mountain and stay here, so that I may give you the tablets of stone, with the law and commandments I have written for their instruction.”

13 Nígbà náà ni Mose jáde lọ pẹ̀lú Joṣua arákùnrin rẹ̀. Mose lọ sí orí òkè Ọlọ́run.

So Moses set out with Joshua his attendant and went up on the mountain of God.

14 Ó sì wí fún àwọn àgbàgbà pé, “Ẹ dúró dè wá níhìn-ín yìí, títí àwa yóò fi tún padà tọ̀ yín wá, sì kíyèsi i, Aaroni àti Huri ń bẹ pẹ̀lú yín, bí ẹnìkan bá ni ọ̀ràn kan, kí ó tọ̀ wọ́n lọ.”

And he said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we return to you. Aaron and Hur are here with you. Whoever has a dispute can go to them.”

15 Nígbà tí Mose gun orí òkè lọ, ìkùùkuu bo orí òkè náà.

When Moses went up on the mountain, the cloud covered it,

16 Ògo Olúwa sì wà ní orí òkè Sinai. Ìkùùkuu bo orí òkè náà fún ọjọ́ mẹ́fà, ni ọjọ́ keje ni Olúwa kọ sí Mose láti inú ìkùùkuu náà wá.

and the glory of the LORD settled on Mount Sinai. For six days the cloud covered it, and on the seventh day the LORD called to Moses from within the cloud.

17 Ni ojú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ògo Olúwa náà dàbí iná ajónirun ni orí òkè.

And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like a consuming fire on the mountaintop in the eyes of the Israelites.

18 Nígbà náà ni Mose wọ inú ìkùùkuu náà bí ó ti ń lọ ní orí òkè. Ó sì wà ni orí òkè náà ni ogójì ọ̀sán àti ogójì òru.

Moses entered the cloud as he went up on the mountain, and he remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
