< Exodus 34 >

1 And after this he said: Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the former, and I will write upon them the words which were in the tables, which thou brokest.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Teekateeka ebipande bibiri eby’amayinja nga biri ebyasooka, nange nnaabiwandiikako ebigambo ebyali ku bipande ebyasooka bye wamenya.
2 Be ready in the morning, that thou mayst forthwith go up into mount Sinai, and thou shalt stand with me upon the top of the mount.
Weetegeke mu makya, ojje mu makya ago olinnye waggulu ku lusozi Sinaayi, olyoke onneeyanjulire eyo ku ntikko y’olusozi.
3 Let no man go up with thee: and let not any man be seen throughout all the mount: neither let the oxen nor the sheep feed over against it.
Tewasaana kubaawo muntu ajja naawe, era ku lusozi wonna wonna tewasaana kulabikawo muntu n’omu; era n’amagana n’ebisibo by’endiga tebisaana kuliira mu maaso ga lusozi.”
4 Then he cut out two tables of stone, such as had been before: and rising very early he went up into the mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, carrying with him the tables.
Bw’atyo Musa n’atema mu mayinja ebipande bibiri nga bifaanana nga biri ebyasooka; n’akeera mu makya n’alinnya ku lusozi Sinaayi, nga Mukama bwe yamulagira, ng’asitudde n’ebipande eby’amayinja byombi mu mikono gye.
5 And when the Lord was come down in a cloud, Moses stood with him, calling upon the name of the Lord.
Awo Mukama n’akkira mu kire, n’ayimirira awo ne Musa, n’alangirira erinnya lye, Mukama.
6 And when he passed before him, he said: O the Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, patient and of much compassion, and true,
Mukama n’ayita mu maaso ga Musa n’agamba nti, “Nze Mukama, Mukama Katonda alina ekisa n’okusaasira okungi, atasunguwala mangu, ajjudde obwesigwa n’okwagala okutaggwaawo.
7 Who keepest mercy unto thousands: who takest away iniquity, and wickedness, and sin, and no man of himself is innocent before thee. Who renderest the iniquity of the fathers to the children, and to the grandchildren, unto the third and fourth generation.
Akuuma okwagala eri enkumi n’enkumi asonyiwa ebisobyo byabwe, n’obujeemu bwabwe, n’ebibi byabwe. Talema kubonereza oyo asingiddwa omusango. Abonereza abaana n’abazzukulu olw’ebisobyo bya bakadde baabwe n’ebya bajjajjaabwe, okutuukira ddala ku mulembe ogwokusatu n’ogwokuna.”
8 And Moses making haste, bowed down prostrate unto the earth, and adoring,
Amangwago Musa n’avuunama wansi, n’asinza.
9 Said: If I have found grace in thy sight: O Lord, I beseech thee, that thou wilt go with us, (for it is a stiffnecked people, ) and take away our iniquities and sin, and possess us.
N’agamba nti, “Obanga kaakano nkusanyusizza, Ayi Mukama, jjangu, Mukama, ogende naffe. Newaakubadde ng’abantu bano balina ensingo nkakanyavu, naye tusonyiwe ebyonoono byaffe n’ebibi byaffe, otukkirize tubeere abantu bo ab’obusika bwo.”
10 The Lord answered: I will make a covenant in the sight of all. I will do signs such as were never seen upon the earth, nor in any nation: that this people, in the midst of whom thou art, may see the terrible work of the Lord which I will do.
Awo Mukama n’addamu nti, “Laba, nkola naawe endagaano. Nzija kukolera mu bantu bo ebyamagero ebitakolwangako mu nsi yonna, wadde mu ggwanga lyonna. Abantu bonna b’oli nabo banaalaba eby’ekitalo Mukama by’anaakolera mu ggwe.
11 Observe all things which this day I command thee: I myself will drive out before thy face the Amorrhite, and the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite.
“Gondera bye nkulagira leero. Nange, gye mulaga, nzija kugobayo Abamoli, n’Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abaperezi, n’Abakiivi, n’Abayebusi.
12 Beware thou never join in friendship with the inhabitants of that land, which may be thy ruin:
Kirungi weekuume oleme kukola ndagaano n’abatuuze ab’omu nsi gy’olagamu, kubanga bayinza okubafuukira omutego.
13 But destroy their altars, break their statues, and cut down their groves:
Olimenyaamenya ebyoto byabwe, obetente empagi zaabwe, n’otemaatema ebifaananyi byabwe ebibajje bye basinza.
14 Adore not any strange god. The Lord his name is Jealous, he is a jealous God.
Tosinzanga katonda mulala yenna, kubanga Nze Mukama, ayitibwa Waabuggya, ndi Katonda wa buggya.
15 Make no covenant with the men of those countries lest, when they have committed fornication with their gods, and have adored their idols, some one call thee to eat of the things sacrificed.
“Temukolanga ndagaano ey’okukolagana n’abatuuze b’omu nsi omwo. Kubanga bwe baliba bagoberera bakatonda baabwe, nga bawaayo ssaddaaka, gamba omu ku bo n’abayita, mulirya ku biweebwayo byabwe ebyo.
16 Neither shalt thou take of their daughters a wife for thy son, lest after they themselves have committed fornication, they make thy sons also to commit fornication with their gods.
Era bwe muliwasiza batabani bammwe abamu ku bawala baabwe, abawala abo ne bagoberera bakatonda baabwe, balireetera batabani bammwe nabo okukola bwe batyo.
17 Thou shalt not make to thyself any molten gods.
“Temwekoleranga bakatonda mu byuma ebisaanuuse.
18 Thou shalt keep the feast of the unleavened bread. Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee in the time of the month of the new corn: for in the month of the springtime thou camest out from Egypt.
“Embaga ey’Emigaati Egitali Mizimbulukuse ogikwatanga. Munaamalanga ennaku musanvu nga mulya emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse, mu kiseera ekyategekebwa mu mwezi gwa Abibu nga bwe nabalagira; kubanga mu mwezi gwa Abibu mwe mwaviira mu Misiri.
19 All of the male kind, that openeth the womb, shall be mine. Of all beasts, both of oxen and of sheep, it shall be mine.
“Ebiggulanda byonna byange, n’ennume zonna mu magana go embereberye, oba nte oba ndiga.
20 The firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a sheep: but if thou wilt not give a price for it, it shall be slain. The firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem: neither shalt thou appear before me empty.
Endogoyi embereberye onoozinunulanga n’endiga, naye nga toginunudde ogimenyanga ensingo n’ogitta. Abaana bo abaggulanda bonna obanunulanga. Era tewabanga ajja gye ndi engalo ensa.
21 Six days shalt thou work, the seventh day thou shalt cease to plough, and to reap.
“Onookolanga okumala ennaku mukaaga, naye ku lunaku olw’omusanvu n’owummula; ne mu biseera eby’okukabala n’ebyokukungula onoowummulanga.
22 Thou shalt keep the feast of weeks with the firstfruits of the corn of thy wheat harvest, and the feast when the time of the year returneth that all things are laid in.
“Onookwatanga Embaga eya Wiiki, n’Embaga ey’Amakungula g’Ebibala Ebibereberye eby’Eŋŋaano, n’Embaga ey’Okuyingiza Amakungula ku nkomerero y’omwaka.
23 Three times in a year all thy males shall appear in the sight of the Almighty Lord the God of Israel.
Abasajja bonna mu mmwe banaalabikanga awali Mukama Katonda, Katonda wa Isirayiri, emirundi esatu mu buli mwaka.
24 For when I shall have taken away the nations from thy face, and shall have enlarged thy borders, no man shall lie in wait against thy land when thou shalt go up, and appear in the sight of the Lord thy God thrice in a year.
Amawanga ŋŋenda kugagobawo wonna we muli, era ndigaziya n’ensalo zammwe. So tewalibaawo ayagala kutwala nsi yammwe nga mwambuse okulabika awali Mukama Katonda wammwe emirundi egyo esatu mu mwaka.
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice upon leaven: neither shall there remain in the morning any thing of the victim of the solemnity of the Lord.
“Temuwangayo kintu kyonna gye ndi ekirimu ekizimbulukusa nga mundeetedde ssaddaaka erimu omusaayi; era ennyama ya ssaddaaka ey’Embaga y’Okuyitako tesigalangawo kutuusa nkeera.
26 The first of the fruits of thy ground thou shalt offer in the house of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in the milk of his dam.
“Ebibala ebisinga obulungi mu ebyo ebisoose okuva mu ttaka lyo obitwalanga mu nnyumba ya Mukama Katonda wo. “Omwana gw’embuzi togufumbiranga mu mata ga nnyina waagwo.”
27 And the Lord said to Moses: Write these words by which I have made a covenant both with thee and with Israel.
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Wandiika ebigambo ebyo; kubanga nkoze endagaano naawe era ne Isirayiri ng’ebigambo ebyo bwe bigamba.”
28 And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights: he neither ate bread nor drank water, and he wrote upon the tables the ten words of the covenant.
Musa n’abeera eyo ne Mukama, n’amalayo emisana amakumi ana n’ebiro amakumi ana, nga talya mmere wadde okunywa amazzi. N’awandiika ku bipande ebigambo eby’Endagaano, ge Mateeka Ekkumi.
29 And when Moses came down from the mount Sinai, he held the two tables of the testimony, and he knew not that his face was horned from the conversation of the Lord.
Musa bwe yaserengeta okuva ku lusozi Sinaayi ng’akutte mu ngalo ze ebipande byombi eby’Endagaano, teyakimanya ng’obwenyi bwe bwali bumasamasa kubanga yali ayogedde ne Mukama.
30 And Aaron and the children of Israel seeing the face of Moses horned, were afraid to come near.
Era Alooni n’abaana ba Isirayiri bonna bwe baatunula ku Musa, ne balaba ng’obwenyi bwe bumasamasa; ne batya okumusemberera.
31 And being called by him, they returned, both Aaron and the rulers of the congregation. And after that he spoke to them.
Naye Musa n’abayita; bw’atyo Alooni n’abakulembeze b’abantu ne bajja gy’ali, Musa n’ayogera nabo.
32 And all the children of Israel came to him: and he gave them in commandment all that he had heard of the Lord in mount Sinai.
Oluvannyuma abaana ba Isirayiri bonna ne basembera, n’abategeeza amateeka gonna Mukama ge yamulagira ku lusozi Sinaayi.
33 And having done speaking, he put a veil upon his face.
Awo Musa bwe yamala okwogera nabo, n’abikka obwenyi bwe olugoye.
34 But when he went in to the Lord, and spoke with him, he took it away until he came forth, and then he spoke to the children of Israel all things that had been commanded him.
Naye Musa bwe yabanga agenda awali Mukama okwogera naye, ng’olugoye olubikka obwenyi bwe alwebikkula okutuusa lwe yavangayo. Bwe yakomangawo okutegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri Mukama by’amulagidde,
35 And they saw that the face of Moses when he came out was horned, but he covered his face again, if at any time he spoke to them.
baalabanga obwenyi bwe nga bumasamasa. Bw’atyo Musa ne yezzaako olugoye olubikka obwenyi bwe, okutuusa lwe yaddangayo eri Mukama okwogera naye.
