< Exodus 33 >

1 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Fi ìhín yìí sílẹ̀, ìwọ àti àwọn ènìyàn tí o mú gòkè láti Ejibiti wá, kí ẹ sì gòkè lọ sí ilẹ̀ tí Èmi ti pinnu ní ìbúra fún Abrahamu, Isaaki àti Jakọbu wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò fi fún irú-ọmọ rẹ.’
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, “Go from here, you and the people whom you have brought up out of the land of Egypt. Go to the land about which I made an oath to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, when I said, 'I will give it to your descendants.'
2 Èmi yóò rán angẹli ṣáájú yín, Èmi yóò sì lé àwọn Kenaani, àwọn ará Amori, àwọn ará Hiti, àwọn ará Peresi, àwọn ará Hifi àti àwọn ará Jebusi jáde.
I will send an angel before you, and I will drive out the Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
3 Ẹ gòkè lọ sí ilẹ̀ tí ó ń sàn fún wàrà àti oyin. Ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò ní lọ pẹ̀lú yín, nítorí ènìyàn ọlọ́rùn líle ni ẹ̀yin, kí èmi má ba à run yín ní ọ̀nà.”
Go to that land, which is flowing with milk and honey, but I will not go up with you, because you are a stubborn people. I might destroy you on the way.”
4 Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn náà gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ìparun wọ̀nyí, wọ́n bẹ̀rẹ̀ sì ní kùn, ẹnìkankan kò sì le è wọ ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ rẹ̀.
When the people heard these troubling words, they mourned, and no one put on any jewelry.
5 Nítorí Olúwa ti wí fún Mose pé, “Sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pé, ‘Ènìyàn Ọlọ́rùn líle ní ẹ̀yin, bí Èmi bá lè wá sí àárín yín ni ìṣẹ́jú kan, Èmi lè pa yín run. Nísìnsinyìí, bọ́ ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ rẹ kúrò, Èmi yóò sì gbèrò ohun tí Èmi yóò ṣe pẹ̀lú rẹ.’”
Yahweh had said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, 'You are a stubborn people. If I went among you for even one moment, I would destroy you. So now, take off your jewelry so that I may decide what to do with you.'”
6 Bẹ́ẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli bọ́ ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ wọn kúrò lára wọn ní òkè Horebu.
So the Israelites wore no jewelry from Mount Horeb onward.
7 Mose máa ń gbé àgọ́ náà, ó sì pa á sí ìta ibùdó, ó jìnnà díẹ̀ sí ibùdó, ó pè é ni “Àgọ́ àjọ.” Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ń béèrè Olúwa yóò lọ sí ibi àgọ́ àjọ náà ní ìta ibùdó.
Moses took a tent and pitched it outside the camp, some distance from the camp. He called it the tent of meeting. Everyone who asked Yahweh for anything went out to the tent of meeting, outside the camp.
8 Nígbàkígbà tí Mose bá jáde lọ sí ibi àgọ́, gbogbo ènìyàn á dìde, wọ́n á sì dúró sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ wọn, wọn yóò máa wo Mose títí yóò fi wọ inú àgọ́ náà.
When Moses would go out to the tent, all the people would stand up at their tent entrances and look at Moses until he had gone inside.
9 Bí Mose ṣe wọ inú àgọ́ náà, ọ̀wọ́n àwọsánmọ̀ yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀, yóò sì dúró sí ẹnu ọnà, nígbà tí Olúwa ń sọ̀rọ̀ pẹ̀lú Mose.
Whenever Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would come down and stand at the tent entrance, and Yahweh would speak with Moses.
10 Nígbàkígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn bá rí i ti ọ̀wọ́n àwọsánmọ̀ bá dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́, gbogbo wọn yóò dìde wọn yóò sì sìn, olúkúlùkù ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ rẹ̀.
Whenever all the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at the entrance to the tent, they would get up and worship, every man at his own tent entrance.
11 Olúwa máa ń bá Mose sọ̀rọ̀ lójúkojú, gẹ́gẹ́ bí i pé ènìyàn ń bá ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ sọ̀rọ̀. Nígbà náà ni Mose yóò tún padà lọ sí ibùdó, ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin Joṣua ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ọmọ Nuni kò fi àgọ́ sílẹ̀.
Yahweh would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his servant Joshua son of Nun, a young man, would stay in the tent.
12 Mose sọ fún Olúwa pé, “Ìwọ ti ń sọ fún mi, ‘Darí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí,’ ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò jẹ́ kí ń mọ ẹni tí ìwọ yóò rán pẹ̀lú mi. Ìwọ ti wí pé, ‘Èmi mọ̀ ọ́n nípa orúkọ, ìwọ sì ti rí ojúrere mi pẹ̀lú.’
Moses said to Yahweh, “See, you have been saying to me, 'Take this people on their journey,' but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, 'I know you by name, and you have also found favor in my eyes.'
13 Bí ìwọ bá ní inú dídùn pẹ̀lú mi, kọ́ mi ní ọ̀nà rẹ, kí èmi kí ó lè mọ̀ ọ́n, kí n sì le máa wá ojúrere rẹ pẹ̀lú. Rántí wí pé orílẹ̀-èdè yìí ènìyàn rẹ ni.”
Now if I have found favor in your eyes, show me your ways so that I may know you and continue to find favor in your eyes. Remember that this nation is your people.”
14 Olúwa dáhùn wí pé, “Ojú mi yóò máa bá ọ lọ, Èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní ìsinmi.”
Yahweh answered, “My own presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
15 Nígbà náà ni, Mose wí fún un pé, “Bí ojú rẹ kò bá bá wa lọ, má ṣe rán wa gòkè láti ìhín lọ.
Moses said to him, “If your presence does not go with us, do not take us up from here.
16 Báwo ni ẹnikẹ́ni yóò ṣe mọ̀ pé inú rẹ dùn pẹ̀lú mi àti pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ àyàfi ti o bá bá wa lọ? Kí ni yóò lè yà mí àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ kúrò lára gbogbo ènìyàn tí ó wà ní ayé?”
For otherwise, how will it be known that I have found favor in your eyes, I and your people? Will it not only be if you go with us so that I and your people are different from all the other peoples that are on the surface of the earth?”
17 Olúwa sì sọ fún Mose pé, “Èmi yóò ṣe ohun gbogbo tí ìwọ ti béèrè, nítorí inú mi dún sí o, Èmi sì mọ̀ ọ́n nípa orúkọ rẹ̀.”
Yahweh said to Moses, “I will also do this thing that you have requested, for you have found favor in my eyes, and I know you by name.”
18 Mose sì wí pé, “Nísinsin yìí fi ògo rẹ hàn mí.”
Moses said, “Please show me your glory.”
19 Olúwa sì wí pé, “Èmi yóò sì mú gbogbo ìre mí kọjá níwájú rẹ, Èmi yóò sì pòkìkí orúkọ Olúwa níwájú rẹ. Èmi yóò ṣàánú fún ẹni tí Èmi yóò ṣàánú fún, Èmi yóò sì ṣoore-ọ̀fẹ́ fún ẹni tí Èmi yóò ṣoore-ọ̀fẹ́ fún.
Yahweh said, “I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim my name 'Yahweh' before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and I will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.”
20 Ṣùgbọ́n,” ó wí pé, “Ìwọ kò le è rí ojú mi, nítorí kò sí ènìyàn kan tí ń rí mi, tí ó lè yè.”
But Yahweh said, “You may not see my face, for no one can see me and live.”
21 Olúwa sì wí pé, “Ibìkan wà lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ ọ̀dọ̀ mi, níbi tí o ti lè dúró lórí àpáta.
Yahweh said, “See, here is a place by me; you will stand on this rock.
22 Nígbà tí ògo mi bá kọjá, Èmi yóò gbé ọ sínú pàlàpálá àpáta, Èmi yóò sì bò ọ́ pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ mi títí Èmi yóò fi rékọjá.
While my glory passes by, I will put you in a crevice of the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by.
23 Nígbà tí Èmi yóò mú ọwọ́ mi kúrò, ìwọ yóò sì rí ẹ̀yìn mi; ṣùgbọ́n ojú mi ni o kò ní rí.”
Then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back, but my face will not be seen.”
