Exodus 32
1 Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn rí i pé Mose pẹ́ kí ó tó sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti orí òkè wá, wọn péjọ yí Aaroni ká, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Wá, dá òrìṣà tí yóò máa ṣáájú wa fún wa. Bí ó ṣe ti Mose tí ó mú wa jáde láti Ejibiti wá, àwa kò mọ́ ohun tí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀ sí i.”
When the people saw that Moses delayed in coming down the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said to him, “Come, make us an idol that will go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.”
2 Aaroni dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Ẹ bọ́ òrùka wúrà tí ó wà ní etí àwọn ìyàwó yín, tí àwọn ọmọkùnrin yín, àti tí àwọn ọmọbìnrin yín, kí ẹ sì mú wọn wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi.”
So Aaron said to them, “Take off the golden rings that are on your wives' ears, and the ears of your sons and daughters, and bring them to me.”
3 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn bọ́ òrùka etí wọn, wọn sì kó wọn wá fún Aaroni.
All the people took off the golden rings that were on their ears and brought them to Aaron.
4 Ó sì gbà wọ́n ní ọwọ́ wọn, ó sì fi ṣe ohun ọnà fínfín, ó sì dà á ní àwòrán ẹgbọrọ màlúù. Nígbà náà ni wọn wí pé, “Israẹli, wọ̀nyí ni òrìṣà, ti ó mú un yín jáde wá láti Ejibiti.”
He received the gold from them, fashioned it in a mold, and made it into a molded calf. Then the people said, “Israel, this is your god who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.”
5 Nígbà ti Aaroni rí èyí, ó kọ́ pẹpẹ kan níwájú ẹgbọrọ màlúù náà, ó sì kéde pé, “Lọ́la ni àjọyọ̀ sí Olúwa.”
When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before the calf and made a proclamation; he said, “Tomorrow will be a festival in Yahweh's honor.”
6 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn dìde ní kùtùkùtù ọjọ́ kejì, wọ́n sì rú ẹbọ sísun, wọ́n sì mú ẹbọ àlàáfíà wá. Lẹ́yìn náà wọ́n jókòó láti jẹ àti láti mu, wọ́n sì dìde láti ṣeré.
The people arose early the next day and offered burnt offerings and brought fellowship offerings. Then they sat down to eat and to drink, and then got up to carouse in wild celebration.
7 Olúwa sì wí fún Mose pé, “Sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ, nítorí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, tí ìwọ mú gòkè wá láti Ejibiti, wọ́n ti dẹ́ṣẹ̀.
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, “Go quickly, for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves.
8 Wọ́n ti yí kánkán kúrò nípa ọ̀nà tí mo ti mo pàṣẹ fún wọn, wọ́n sì ti dá ère ẹgbọrọ màlúù fún ara wọn. Wọ́n ti foríbalẹ̀ fún un, wọ́n sì ti rú ẹbọ sí i, wọ́n sì ti sọ pé, ‘Israẹli wọ̀nyí ní òrìṣà tí ó mú un yín jáde láti Ejibiti wá.’”
They have quickly left the way that I commanded them. They have molded for themselves a calf and have worshiped it and sacrificed to it. They have said, 'Israel, this is your god who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.'”
9 Olúwa wí fún Mose pé, “Èmi ti rí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí, wọ́n sì jẹ́ ọlọ́rùn líle ènìyàn.
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “I have seen this people. Look, they are a stiff-necked people.
10 Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí fi mí sílẹ̀, nítorí kí ìbínú mi lè gbóná sí wọn, kí Èmi sì lè pa wọ́n run. Nígbà náà ni Èmi yóò sọ ọ́ di orílẹ̀-èdè ńlá.”
Now then, do not try to stop me. My anger will burn hot against them, so I will destroy them. Then I will make a great nation from you.”
11 Ṣùgbọ́n Mose kígbe fún ojúrere Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀, ó wí pé, “Olúwa, èéṣe tí ìbínú rẹ yóò ṣe gbóná sí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, tí ìwọ mú jáde láti Ejibiti wá pẹ̀lú agbára ńlá àti ọwọ́ agbára?
But Moses tried to calm down Yahweh his God. He said, “Yahweh, why does your anger burn against your people, whom you have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?
12 Èéṣe tí àwọn ará Ejibiti yóò ṣe wí pé, ‘Nítorí ibi ni ó ṣe mọ̀ ọ́n mọ̀ mú wọn jáde, láti pa wọ́n ní orí òkè àti láti gbá wọn kúrò lórí ayé’? Yípadà kúrò nínú ìbínú rẹ tí ó múná, yí ọkàn padà, kí o má sì ṣe mú ìparun wá sórí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ.
Why should the Egyptians say, 'He led them out with evil intent, to kill them in the mountains and to destroy them from the face of the earth?' Turn from your burning anger and relent from this punishment on your people.
13 Rántí àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ Abrahamu, Isaaki àti Israẹli, ẹni tí ìwọ búra fún fúnra rẹ̀, ‘Tí o wí fún wọn pé, Èmi yóò mú irú-ọmọ rẹ pọ̀ bí ìràwọ̀ ojú ọ̀run, Èmi yóò sì fún irú-ọmọ rẹ ní gbogbo ilẹ̀ tí mo ti pinnu fún wọn, yóò sì jẹ́ ogún ìní wọn láéláé.’”
Call to mind Abraham and Isaac and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self and said to them, 'I will make your descendants as many as the stars in the heavens, and I will give to your descendants all this land of which I have spoken. They will inherit it forever.'”
14 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa dáwọ́ ìbínú rẹ̀ dúró, kò sì mú ìparun náà tí ó sọ wá sórí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ mọ́.
Then Yahweh relented from the punishment that he had said he would inflict on his people.
15 Mose sì yípadà, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti orí òkè náà pẹ̀lú òkúta wàláà ẹ̀rí méjì ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀. Wọ́n kọ ìwé síhà méjèèjì, iwájú àti ẹ̀yin.
Then Moses turned around and went down the mountain, carrying the two tablets of the covenant decrees in his hand. The tablets were written on both their sides, on both the front and the back.
16 Iṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run sì ni wàláà náà; ìkọ̀wé náà jẹ́ ìkọ̀wé Ọlọ́run, a fín in sára àwọn òkúta wàláà náà.
The tablets were God's own work, and the writing was God's own writing, engraved on the tablets.
17 Nígbà tí Joṣua gbọ́ ariwo àwọn ènìyàn tí wọ́n ń kígbe, ó sọ fún Mose pé, “Ariwo ogun wà nínú àgọ́.”
When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, “There is the noise of combat in the camp.”
18 Mose dáhùn pé, “Kì í ṣe ariwo fún ìṣẹ́gun, kì í ṣe ariwo fún aṣẹ́gun; ohùn àwọn tí ń kọrin ni mo gbọ́.”
But Moses said, “It is not the sound of a victor, and not the sound of defeated people, but the sound of singing that I hear.”
19 Nígbà tí Mose dé àgọ́, ó sì rí ẹgbọrọ màlúù náà àti ijó, ìbínú rẹ gbóná, ó sì sọ wàláà ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ó sì fọ́ wọn sí wẹ́wẹ́ ní ìsàlẹ̀ òkè náà.
When Moses approached the camp, he saw the calf and the people dancing. He became very angry. He threw the tablets out of his hands and broke them at the bottom of the mountain.
20 Ó sì gbé ẹgbọrọ màlúù tí wọ́n ṣe, ó sì fi iná jó wọn; ó sì lọ̀ wọ́n kúnná, ó dà á sínú omi, ó sì mú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli mu ún.
He took the calf that the people had made, burned it, ground it to powder, and poured it into the water. Then he made the people of Israel drink it.
21 Mose sọ fún Aaroni pé, “Kí ni àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ṣe sí ọ, tí ìwọ ṣe mú wọn dá ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ńlá yìí?”
Then Moses said to Aaron, “What did this people do to you, that you have brought such a great sin on them?”
22 Aaroni dáhùn wí pé, “Má ṣe bínú olúwa mi. Ìwọ mọ bí àwọn ènìyàn yìí ṣe burú tó.
Aaron said, “Do not let your anger burn hot, my master. You know these people, how they are set on doing evil.
23 Wọ́n sọ fún mi pé, ‘Ṣe òrìṣà fún wa, tí yóò máa ṣáájú wa. Bí ó ṣe ti Mose ẹni tí ó mú wa jáde láti Ejibiti wá àwa kò mọ ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ sí i.’
They said to me, 'Make us a god who will go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.'
24 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni mo sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ní òrùka wúrà, kí ó bọ́ ọ wá.’ Nígbà náà ni wọ́n fún mi ní wúrà, mo sì jù ú sínú iná, a sì fi ṣe ẹgbọrọ màlúù yìí!”
So I said to them, 'Whoever has any gold, let him take it off.' They gave me the gold and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf.”
25 Mose rí pé àwọn ènìyàn náà kò ṣe ṣàkóso àti pé Aaroni ti sọ wọ́n di aláìlákóṣo láàrín àwọn ọ̀tá tí ó dìde sí wọn.
Moses saw that the people were running wild (for Aaron had let them get out of control, causing their enemies to mock them).
26 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Mose dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́, ó sì wí pé, “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá wà fún Olúwa, kí ó wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi.” Gbogbo àwọn ará Lefi sì péjọ yí i ká.
Then Moses stood at the entrance to the camp and said, “Whoever is on Yahweh's side, come to me.” All the Levites gathered around him.
27 Nígbà náà ni ó sọ fún wọn pé, “Èyí ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, wí pé, ‘Kí olúkúlùkù ọkùnrin kí ó kọ idà rẹ̀ sí ẹ̀gbẹ́ rẹ̀. Ẹ lọ padà, kí ẹ jà láti àgọ́ kan dé òmíràn, olúkúlùkù kí ó pa arákùnrin rẹ̀ ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ àti aládùúgbò rẹ.’”
He said to them, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says this: 'Let each man fasten his sword on his side and go back and forth from entrance to entrance throughout the camp, and kill his brother, his companion, and his neighbor.'”
28 Àwọn ará Lefi ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Mose ṣe pàṣẹ, àti ní ọjọ́ náà àwọn tí ó kú tó ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ènìyàn.
The Levites did what Moses ordered. That day about three thousand of the people died.
29 Nígbà náà ni Mose wí pé, “Ẹ ti ya ara yín sọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa lónìí, nítorí ìwọ ti dìde sí àwọn ọmọ rẹ àti arákùnrin rẹ, ó sì ti bùkún fún ọ lónìí.”
Moses said to the Levites, “You have been placed into Yahweh's service today, for each of you has taken action against his son and his brother, so Yahweh might give you a blessing today.”
30 Ní ọjọ́ kejì Mose sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Ẹ̀yin ti dá ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí ó pọ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí èmi yóò gòkè lọ bá Olúwa; bóyá èmi lè ṣe ètùtù fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín.”
The next day Moses said to the people, “You have committed a very great sin. Now I will go up to Yahweh. Perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.”
31 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Mose padà tọ Olúwa lọ, ó sì wí pé, “Yé, kí ni ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ńlá tí àwọn ènìyàn ti dá yìí! Wọ́n ti ṣe òrìṣà wúrà fún ara wọn.
Moses returned to Yahweh and said, “Oh, these people have committed a great sin and made themselves an idol of gold.
32 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, jọ̀wọ́ dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn jì wọ́n ṣùgbọ́n tí kò bá sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, pa orúkọ mi rẹ́ kúrò nínú ìwé tí ìwọ ti kọ.”
But now, please forgive their sin; but if you do not, blot me out of the book that you have written.”
33 Olúwa dá Mose lóhùn pé, “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí mi, Èmi yóò pa á rẹ́ kúrò nínú ìwé mi.
Yahweh said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, that person I will blot out of my book.
34 Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí lọ, máa darí àwọn ènìyàn yìí lọ sí ibi ti mo sọ, angẹli mi yóò sì máa lọ ṣáájú yín. Ìgbà ń bọ̀ fún mi tì Èmi yóò ṣe ìbẹ̀wò, Èmi yóò fi yà jẹ wọ́n fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.”
So now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. See, my angel will go before you. But on the day that I punish them, I will punish them for their sin.”
35 Olúwa sì yọ àwọn ènìyàn náà lẹ́nu, pẹ̀lú ààrùn nítorí ohun tí wọ́n ṣe ní ti ẹgbọrọ màlúù tí Aaroni ṣe.
Yahweh sent a plague on the people because they had made the calf, the one that Aaron made.
