< 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.
I MAI la oia ia Mose, E pii mai oe io Iehova nei, o oe, a me Aarona, a me Nadaba, a me Abihu, a me na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela he kanahiku; a e hoomana oukou ma kahi mamao aku.
2 And only Moses will ascend to the Lord, and these shall not approach. Neither shall the people ascend with him.”
A o Mose wale no ka mea hele mai a kokoke io Iehova nei: aka, o lakou aole hele mai a kokoke; aole hoi e pii pu na kanaka me ia.
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.”
Hoi ae la o Mose, a hai aku la i kanaka i na olelo a pau a Iehova, a me na kanawai a pau; hooho mai la na kanaka a pau me ka leo kahi, i mai la, O na olelo a pau a Iehova i olelo mai ai, e hana no makou.
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.
A kahakaha iho la o Mose i na olelo a pau a Iehova, a ala'e la i kakahiaka nui, a kukulu iho la i kuahu malalo o ka mauna, a me na kia he umikumamalua, e like me na ohana he umikumamalua o ka Iseraela.
5 And he sent youths from the sons of Israel, and they offered holocausts, and they immolated calves as peace-offerings to the Lord.
A hoouna ae la ia i mau kanaka ui o na mamo a Iseraela, na lakou i mohai aku i na mahaikuni, no Iehova, a kaumaha aku no hoi lakou i mau bipi kane i mohai hoomalu.
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.
A lawe iho la o Mose i ka hapalua o ke koko, a waiho aku la maloko o na kiaha, a kapipi iho la ia i kekahi hapalua o ke koko maluna o ke kuahu.
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.”
A lawe iho la ia i ka buke o ka berita, a heluhelu ma na pepeiao o na kanaka. Olelo aku la lakou, E hana no makou i na mea a pau a Iehova i olelo mai ai, a e hoolohe no.
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.”
A lawe ae la o Mose i ke koko, a kapipi iho la maluna o na kanaka, olelo mai la, Aia hoi ke koko o ka berita a Iehova i hana mai ai me oukou no keia mau olelo a pau.
9 And Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel ascended.
Alaila, pii aku la o Mose, a me Aarona, a me Nadaba, a me Abihu, a me na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela.
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.
A ike aku la lakou i ke Akua o ka Iseraela, a malalo iho o kona mau wawae he mea me he sapeiro ka aiai, e like hoi me ke kino o na lani ke kalae.
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.
Aole ia i kau mai i kona lima maluna o na luna o na mamo o ka Iseraela. A ike no lakou i ke Akua, a ai no, a inu no hoi.
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.”
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hele mai oe io'u nei i ka mauna, a e noho malaila; a e haawi aku au ia oe i pohaku papa, me ke kanawai, a me na kauoha a'u i palapala ai, i ao aku oe ia mea.
13 Moses rose up, with Joshua his minister. And Moses, ascending on the mountain of God,
Ku ae la o Mose iluna, a me kana kauwa o Iosua: a pii aku la o Mose i ka mauna o ke Akua.
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.”
Olelo iho la ia i na lunakahiko, E kakali oukou no maua, a hoi mai maua ia oukou: aia hoi, me oukou o Aarona haua me Hura; a o ka mea loaa kahi pilikia, e hele ae ia io laua la.
15 And when Moses had ascended, a cloud covered the mountain.
Pii aku la o Mose i ka mauna, a uhi mai la ka ohu i ka mauna.
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.
Puwa mai la ka nani a Iehova maluna o ka mauna i Sinai, a uhi mai la ka ohu maluna iho i na la eono; a i ka hiku o ka la hea mai la oia ia Mose, maloko mai o ka ohu.
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.
I na maka o na mamo a Iseraela, i ka nana ana i ka nani o Iehova, ua like ia me ke ahi e ai ana ma ke poo o ka mauna.
18 And Moses, entering into the midst of the cloud, ascended the mountain. And he was there for forty days and forty nights.
Hele aku la o Mose iloko pono o ka ohu, a pii aku la i ka mauna, a malaila no o Mose ma ka mauna hookahi kanaha ao, hookahi kanaha po.
