< Exodus 33 >

1 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Fahsr liki acn se inge, kom ac mwet su kom use liki Egypt, ac fahsr nu ke facl se su nga wulela in sang nu sel Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob, ac nu sin fwil natulos.
And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, and go up behind, you and the people which you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I swore unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto your seed will I give it:
2 Nga ac supwaot sie lipufan in pwen kom, ac nga fah lusla mwet Canaan, mwet Amor, mwet Hit, mwet Periz, mwet Hiv, ac mwet Jebus.
And 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 Kom ac som nu in sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we. Tusruktu nga sifacna ac tia wi kowos, mweyen kowos mwet likkeke, sahp nga ac kunauskowosla inkanek lowos.”
Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of you; for you are a stubborn people: lest I consume you in the way.
4 Ke mwet uh lohng kas inge, elos mutawauk in asor ac tung, ac tia sifilpa orekmakin mwe naweyuk.
And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments.
5 Meyen LEUM GOD El tuh sapkin nu sel Moses in fahk nu selos, “Kowos mwet likkeke. Nga fin ac wi kowos, finne ke kitin pacl na, nga ac ku in arulana kunauskowosla. Eisla mwe naweyuk lowos an inge, ac nga fah nunku lah mea nga ac oru nu suwos.”
For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, All of you are a stubborn people: I will come up into the midst of you in a moment, and consume you: therefore now put off your ornaments from you, that I may know what to do unto you.
6 Ouinge tukun mwet Israel elos fahsr liki Eol Sinai, elos tia sifil orekmakin mwe naweyuk.
And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount Horeb.
7 Pacl nukewa mwet Israel elos tulokunak iwen aktuktuk selos uh, Moses el ac usla Lohm Nuknuk Mutal ac tulokunak ke sie acn ma loes kutu liki nien aktuktuk uh. El pangon lohm nuknuk sac Iwen Tukeni Ye Mutun LEUM GOD. Kutena mwet su lungse lolngok yurin LEUM GOD ac illa liki nien aktuktuk ac som nu we.
And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, far off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp.
8 Pacl nukewa Moses el illa in som nu ke Lohm Nuknuk sac, mwet uh ac tu ke nien utyak nu ke lohm nuknuk selos ac ngetla liyal Moses nwe ke el utyak nu loac.
And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tabernacle.
9 Tukun Moses el utyak, sru in pukunyeng uh ac oatui lucng me ac tu ke nien utyak nu in Lohm Nuknuk uh, ac LEUM GOD El ac kaskas nu sel Moses liki pukunyeng uh me.
And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses.
10 Pacl se na mwet uh liye sru in pukunyeng ke acn in utyak nu in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, elos ac pasrla.
And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door.
11 LEUM GOD El ac kaskas nu sel Moses ngetani nu sie, oana ke sie mwet el sramsram nu sin mwet kawuk lal. Toko Moses el ac folokla nu nien aktuktuk uh. Tusruktu Joshua, wen natul Nun, su mwet kasru fusr lal, el mutana in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal.
And the LORD spoke unto Moses face to face, as a man speaks unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.
12 Moses el fahk nu sin LEUM GOD, “Pwaye lah kom fahk nu sik in kolla mwet inge nu ke facl sac, tusruktu kom tiana fahkma nu sik lah su ac wiyu som. Kom fahk mu kom arulana eteyu ac kom insewowo sik.
And Moses said unto the LORD, See, you say unto me, Bring up this people: and you have not let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, I know you by name, and you have also found grace in my sight.
13 Fin pwaye, nga kwafe sum in fahkma nunak lom, tuh ngan ku in kulansupwekom ac oru na ma ac akinsewowoye kom. Esam pac lah kom sulela mutanfahl se inge tuh elos in mwet lom.”
Now therefore, I pray you, if I have found grace in your sight, show me now your way, that I may know you, that I may find grace in your sight: and consider that this nation is your people.
14 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga ac wi kom, ac nga fah sot misla nu sum.”
And he said, My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest.
15 Moses el sifil fahk, “Kom fin tia wi kut, nimet oru kut in som liki acn se inge.
And he said unto him, If your presence go not with me, carry us not up behind.
16 Mwet uh ac etu fuka lah kom insewowo sin mwet lom ac insewowo sik kom fin tia wi kut? Oasr lom yorosr uh pa ac akkalemye lah kut sie liki mutunfacl nukewa saya fin faclu.”
For wherein shall it be known here that I and your people have found grace in your sight? is it not in that you go with us? so shall we be separated, I and your people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth.
17 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Nga ac oru oana ke kom siyuk, mweyen nga arulana etekom ac nga insewowo sum.”
And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that you have spoken: for you have found grace in my sight, and I know you by name.
18 Na Moses el fahk, “Nunak munas, lela nga in liye kalem wolana ma akkalemye lah kom oasr yorosr.”
And he said, I plead to you, show me your glory.
19 LEUM GOD El topuk, “Nga ac oru tuh wolana luk nukewa in fahsr ye motom, ac nga fah fahkak Ine lukma luk yen kom oasr we. Nga pa LEUM GOD, ac nga fah fahkak kulang ac pakoten nu selos su nga sulela in oru nu se.
And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before you; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.
20 Nga ac fah tia lela kom in liye mutuk, mweyen wangin mwet ku in liyeyu ac moul na,
And he said, You can not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
21 tusruktu oasr sie eot inge siskuk ma kom ku in tu fac.
And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand upon a rock:
22 Pacl se kalem wolana luk sun acn inge, nga fah filikomi ke lufin eot uh ac afinkomi ke pouk nwe ke nga alukela.
And it shall come to pass, while my glory passes by, that I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and will cover you with my hand while I pass by:
23 Na nga fah eisla pouk, ac kom fah liye fin tuktuk, a kom fah tia liye mutuk.”
And I will take away mine hand, and you shall see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
