Exodus 24
1 He also said to Moses: “Ascend to the Lord, you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy elders out of Israel, and adore from a distance.
Mojzesu je rekel: »Pridite gor h Gospodu, ti in Aron, Nadáb in Abihú ter sedemdeset Izraelovih starešin in obožujte daleč stran.«
2 And only Moses will ascend to the Lord, and these shall not approach. Neither shall the people ascend with him.”
Samo Mojzes pa bo prišel blizu Gospodu, toda oni naj ne pridejo blizu; niti ne bo ljudstvo z njim šlo gor.
3 Therefore, Moses went and explained to the people all the words of the Lord, as well as the judgments. And all the people responded with one voice: “We will do all the words of the Lord, which he has spoken.”
Mojzes je prišel in ljudstvu povedal vse Gospodove besede in vse sodbe, in vse ljudstvo je odgovorilo z enim glasom ter reklo: »Vse besede, ki jih je povedal Gospod, bomo izpolnjevali.«
4 Then Moses wrote all the words of the Lord. And rising up in the morning, he built an altar at the base of the mountain, with twelve titles according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
Mojzes je zapisal vse Gospodove besede in vstal zgodaj zjutraj in pod hribom zgradil oltar in dvanajst stebrov, glede na dvanajst Izraelovih rodov.
5 And he sent youths from the sons of Israel, and they offered holocausts, and they immolated calves as peace-offerings to the Lord.
Poslal je mladeniče izmed Izraelovih otrok, ki so darovali žgalne daritve in žrtvovali mirovne daritve volov Gospodu.
6 And so Moses took one half part of the blood, and he put it into bowls. Then the remaining part he poured over the altar.
Mojzes je vzel polovico od krvi ter jo dal v umivalnike, polovico od krvi pa je poškropil na oltar.
7 And taking up the book of the covenant, he read it in the hearing of the people, who said: “All that the Lord has spoken, we will do, and we will be obedient.”
Vzel je knjigo zaveze in bral v občinstvu ljudstva, in rekli so: »Vse, kar je rekel Gospod, bomo izpolnjevali in bomo poslušni.«
8 In truth, taking up the blood, he sprinkled it on the people, and he said, “This is the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has formed with you concerning all these words.”
Mojzes je vzel kri in jo poškropil na ljudstvo ter rekel: »Poglejte kri zaveze, ki jo je Gospod z vami sklenil glede vseh teh besed.«
9 And Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel ascended.
Potem so šli gor Mojzes in Aron, Nadáb in Abihú ter sedemdeset izmed Izraelovih starešin,
10 And they saw the God of Israel. And under his feet was something like a work of sapphire stone, or like the sky, when it is serene.
in videli so Izraelovega Boga in pod njegovimi stopali je bilo kakor bi bilo to tlakovano delo iz kamna safirja in kakor bi bilo to nebeško telo v svoji jasnosti.
11 Neither did he lay his hand upon those of the sons of Israel who were at a distance. And they saw God, and they ate and drank.
Na plemiče Izraelovih otrok pa ni položil svoje roke; tudi oni so videli Boga in so jedli ter pili.
12 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Ascend to me on the mountain, and be there. And I will give to you tablets of stone, and the law and the commandments that I have written. So may you teach them.”
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Pridi gor k meni na goro in bodi tam, jaz pa ti bom dal kamniti plošči, postavo in zapovedi, ki sem jih zapisal, da jih boš lahko učil.«
13 Moses rose up, with Joshua his minister. And Moses, ascending on the mountain of God,
Mojzes je vstal ter njegov strežnik Józue in Mojzes je šel gor na goro Boga.
14 said to the elders: “Wait here, until we return to you. You have Aaron and Hur with you. If any question arises, you shall refer it to them.”
Starešinam pa je rekel: »Čakajte tukaj na naju, dokler ponovno ne prideva k vam. Glejte, Aron in Hur sta z vami. Če ima katerikoli človek za urediti kakršnekoli zadeve, naj pride k njima.«
15 And when Moses had ascended, a cloud covered the mountain.
Mojzes je odšel gor na goro in goro je pokril oblak.
16 And the glory of the Lord dwelt upon Sinai, covering it with a cloud for six days. And on the seventh day, he called to him from the middle of the mist.
Gospodova slava je ostala na gori Sinaj in oblak jo je pokrival šest dni. Sedmi dan pa je iz srede oblaka zaklical k Mojzesu.
17 Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a burning fire over the summit of the mountain in the sight of the sons of Israel.
Prizor Gospodove slave na vrhu gore je bil v očeh Izraelovih otrok podoben požirajočemu ognju.
18 And Moses, entering into the midst of the cloud, ascended the mountain. And he was there for forty days and forty nights.
Mojzes je odšel v sredo oblaka in se povzpel na goro. Mojzes je bil na gori štirideset dni in štirideset noči.
