< Exodus 34 >

1 The LORD said to Moses, “Chisel two stone tablets like the first. I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.
Ac deinceps: Praecide, ait, tibi duas tabulas lapideas instar priorum, et scribam super eas verba, quae habuerunt tabulae, quas fregisti.
2 Be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and present yourself there to me on the top of the mountain.
Esto paratus mane, ut ascendas statim in montem Sinai, stabisque mecum super verticem montis.
3 No one shall come up with you or be seen anywhere on the mountain. Do not let the flocks or herds graze in front of that mountain.”
Nullus ascendat tecum, nec videatur quispiam per totum montem: boves quoque et oves non pascantur econtra.
4 He chiseled two tablets of stone like the first; then Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to Mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand two stone tablets.
Excidit ergo duas tabulas lapideas, quales antea fuerant: et de nocte consurgens ascendit in montem Sinai, sicut praeceperat ei Dominus, portans secum tabulas.
5 The LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the LORD’s name.
Cumque descendisset Dominus per nubem, stetit Moyses cum eo, invocans nomen Domini.
6 The LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, “The LORD! The LORD, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth,
Quo transeunte coram eo, ait: Dominator Domine Deus, misericors et clemens, patiens et multae miserationis, ac verax,
7 keeping loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and disobedience and sin; and who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the children’s children, on the third and on the fourth generation.”
qui custodis misericordiam in millia: qui aufers iniquitatem, et scelera, atque peccata, nullusque apud te per se innocens est. Qui reddis iniquitatem patrum filiis, ac nepotibus in tertiam et quartam progeniem.
8 Moses hurried and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshiped.
Festinusque Moyses, curvatus est pronus in terram, et adorans
9 He said, “If now I have found favor in your sight, Lord, please let the Lord go among us, even though this is a stiff-necked people; pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance.”
ait: Si inveni gratiam in conspectu tuo Domine, obsecro ut gradiaris nobiscum (populus enim durae cervicis est) et auferas iniquitates nostras atque peccata, nosque possideas.
10 He said, “Behold, I make a covenant: before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been worked in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the LORD; for it is an awesome thing that I do with you.
Respondit Dominus: Ego inibo pactum videntibus cunctis, signa faciam quae numquam visa sunt super terram, nec in ullis gentibus: ut cernat populus iste, in cuius es medio, opus Domini terribile quod facturus sum.
11 Observe that which I command you today. Behold, I will drive out before you the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
Observa cuncta quae hodie mando tibi: ego ipse eiiciam ante faciem tuam Amorrhaeum, et Chananaeum, et Hethaeum, Pherezaeum quoque, et Hevaeum, et Iebusaeum.
12 Be careful, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be for a snare among you;
Cave ne umquam cum habitatoribus terrae illius iungas amicitias, quae sint tibi in ruinam:
13 but you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their Asherah poles;
sed aras eorum destrue, confringe statuas, lucosque succide:
14 for you shall worship no other god; for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
noli adorare deum alienum. Dominus zelotes nomen eius, Deus est aemulator.
15 “Do not make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, lest they play the prostitute after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and one call you and you eat of his sacrifice;
Ne ineas pactum cum hominibus illarum regionum: ne, cum fornicati fuerint cum diis suis, et adoraverint simulachra eorum, vocet te quispiam ut comedas de immolatis.
16 and you take of their daughters to your sons, and their daughters play the prostitute after their gods, and make your sons play the prostitute after their gods.
Nec uxorem de filiabus eorum accipies filiis tuis: ne, postquam ipsae fuerint fornicatae, fornicari faciant et filios tuos in deos suos.
17 “You shall make no cast idols for yourselves.
Deos conflatiles non facies tibi.
18 “You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out of Egypt.
Sollemnitatem azymorum custodies. Septem diebus vesceris azymis, sicut praecepi tibi, in tempore mensis novorum: mense enim verni temporis egressus es de Aegypto.
19 “All that opens the womb is mine; and all your livestock that is male, the firstborn of cow and sheep.
Omne, quod aperit vulvam generis masculini, meum erit. De cunctis animantibus tam de bobus, quam de ovibus, meum erit.
20 You shall redeem the firstborn of a donkey with a lamb. If you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. You shall redeem all the firstborn of your sons. No one shall appear before me empty.
Primogenitum asini redimes ove: sin autem nec pretium pro eo dederis, occidetur. Primogenitum filiorum tuorum redimes: nec apparebis in conspectu meo vacuus.
21 “Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest.
Sex diebus operaberis, die septimo cessabis arare, et metere.
22 “You shall observe the feast of weeks with the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of harvest at the year’s end.
Sollemnitatem hebdomadarum facies tibi in primitiis frugum messis tuae triticeae, et sollemnitatem, quando redeunte anni tempore cuncta conduntur.
23 Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.
Tribus temporibus anni apparebit omne masculinum tuum in conspectu omnipotentis Domini Dei Israel.
24 For I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire your land when you go up to appear before the LORD, your God, three times in the year.
Cum enim tulero gentes a facie tua, et dilatavero terminos tuos, nullus insidiabitur terrae tuae, ascendente te, et apparente in conspectu Domini Dei tui ter in anno.
25 “You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread. The sacrifice of the feast of the Passover shall not be left to the morning.
Non immolabis super fermento sanguinem hostiae meae: neque residebit mane de victima sollemnitatis Phase.
26 “You shall bring the first of the first fruits of your ground to the house of the LORD your God. “You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.”
Primitias frugum terrae tuae offeres in domo Domini Dei tui. Non coques hoedum in lacte matris suae.
27 The LORD said to Moses, “Write these words; for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.”
Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen: Scribe tibi verba haec, quibus et tecum et cum Israel pepigi foedus.
28 He was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread, nor drank water. He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
Fuit ergo ibi cum Domino quadraginta dies et quadraginta noctes: panem non comedit, et aquam non bibit, et scripsit in tabulis verba foederis decem.
29 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant in Moses’ hand, when he came down from the mountain, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him.
Cumque descenderet Moyses de monte Sinai, tenebat duas tabulas testimonii, et ignorabat quod cornuta esset facies sua ex consortio sermonis Domini.
30 When Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him.
Videntes autem Aaron et filii Israel cornutam Moysi faciem, timuerunt prope accedere.
31 Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him; and Moses spoke to them.
Vocatique ab eo, reversi sunt tam Aaron, quam principes synagogae. Et postquam locutus est ad eos,
32 Afterward all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them all the commandments that the LORD had spoken with him on Mount Sinai.
venerunt ad eum etiam omnes filii Israel: quibus praecepit cuncta quae audierat a Domino in monte Sinai.
33 When Moses was done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.
Impletisque sermonibus, posuit velamen super faciem suam.
34 But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spoke to the children of Israel that which he was commanded.
Quod ingressus ad Dominum, et loquens cum eo, auferebat donec exiret, et tunc loquebatur ad filios Israel omnia quae sibi fuerant imperata.
35 The children of Israel saw Moses’ face, that the skin of Moses’ face shone; so Moses put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
Qui videbant faciem egredientis Moysi esse cornutam, sed operiebat ille rursus faciem suam, si quando loquebatur ad eos.
