< 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.’
The LORD spoke to Moses, “Depart, go up from here, you and the people that you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’
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 Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
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 a land flowing with milk and honey; but I will not go up amongst you, for you are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume 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 this evil news, they mourned; and no one put on his jewellery.
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.’”
The LORD had said to Moses, “Tell the children of Israel, ‘You are a stiff-necked people. If I were to go up amongst you for one moment, I would consume you. Therefore now take off your jewellery from you, that I may know what to do to you.’”
6 Bẹ́ẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli bọ́ ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ wọn kúrò lára wọn ní òkè Horebu.
The children of Israel stripped themselves of their jewellery 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.
Now Moses used to take the tent and pitch it outside the camp, far away from the camp, and he called it “The Tent of Meeting.” Everyone who sought the LORD went out to the Tent of Meeting, which was 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 went out to the Tent, all the people rose up, and stood, everyone at their tent door, and watched Moses, until he had gone into the Tent.
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.
When Moses entered into the Tent, the pillar of cloud descended, stood at the door of the Tent, and the LORD spoke 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.
All the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at the door of the Tent, and all the people rose up and worshipped, everyone at their tent door.
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.
The LORD spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. He turned again into the camp, but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, didn’t depart from 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 the LORD, “Behold, you tell me, ‘Bring up this people;’ and you haven’t let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have also found favour in my sight.’
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 therefore, if I have found favour in your sight, please show me your way, now, that I may know you, so that I may find favour in your sight; and consider 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.”
He said, “My 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 doesn’t go with me, don’t carry 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 how would people know that I have found favour in your sight, I and your people? Isn’t it that you go with us, so that we are separated, I and your people, from all the people who 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.”
The LORD said to Moses, “I will do this thing also that you have spoken; for you have found favour in my sight, 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.
He said, “I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the LORD’s name before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and 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.”
He said, “You cannot see my face, for man may not see me and live.”
21 Olúwa sì wí pé, “Ibìkan wà lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ ọ̀dọ̀ mi, níbi tí o ti lè dúró lórí àpáta.
The LORD also said, “Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand on the 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.
It will happen, while my glory passes by, that I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and will 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 shall not be seen.”
