< Ekoruhe 24 >

1 Na ka mea ia ki a Mohi, Piki ake ki a Ihowa koutou ko Arona, ko Natapa, ko Apihu, kia whitu tekau ano hoki o nga kaumatua o Iharaira; a me koropiko mai koutou i tawhiti.
And he said to Moses, Come up to the LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off.
2 Ko Mohi anake hoki e whakatata mai ki a Ihowa: ko ratou ia, kaua ratou e whakatata mai; me te iwi hoki, kaua ratou e piki tahi ake me ia.
And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with him.
3 Na ka haere a Mohi, ka korerotia e ia ki te iwi nga kupu katoa a Ihowa, me nga whakariteritenga katoa: a kotahi ano te reo o te iwi katoa ki te whakahoki, ka ki ratou, Ka meatia e matou nga mea katoa i korerotia mai e Ihowa.
And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said will we perform.
4 Na ka tuhituhia e Mohi nga kupu katoa a Ihowa; a ka maranga wawe ia i te ata, a hanga ana e ia tetahi aata ki raro iho i te maunga, me nga pou kotahi tekau ma rua mo nga iwi kotahi tekau ma rua o Iharaira.
And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose early in the morning, and built an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 I unga ano e ia etahi taitama o nga tama a Iharaira, hei whakaeke i nga tahunga tinana, hei patu hoki i nga puru hei patunga mo te pai ki a Ihowa.
And he sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt-offerings, and sacrificed peace-offerings of oxen to the LORD.
6 Na, ka tango a Mohi i tetahi wahi o te toto, a maka ana e ia ki roto ki nga peihana; ko tetahi wahi hoki o te toto i taia atu ki te aata.
And Moses took half of the blood, and put [it] in basins; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 Na ka mau ia ki te pukapuka o te kawenata, a korerotia ana ki nga taringa o te iwi: a ka mea ratou, Ko nga mea katoa i kiia mai na e Ihowa ka meatia e matou, ka rongo ano matou.
And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.
8 Na ka mau a Mohi ki te toto, a taia atu ana e ia ki te iwi, me te ki ano ia, Nana, te toto nei o te kawenata e whakaritea nei e Ihowa ki a koutou mo enei mea katoa.
And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled [it] on the people, and said, Behold, the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words.
9 Na ka piki ake a Mohi ratou ko Arona, ko Natapa, ko Apihu, me nga kaumatua e whitu tekau o Iharaira;
Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
10 Na ka kite i te Atua o Iharaira: kei raro ano i ona waewae me te mea ko te hapira i hanga hei whariki, he rite tonu ano ki te tino rangi te marama.
And they saw the God of Israel: and [there was] under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire-stone, and as it were the body of heaven in [its] clearness.
11 A kihai i totoro tona ringa ki tetahi o nga rangatira o nga tama a Iharaira: heoi, ka titiro atu ratou ki te Atua, ka kai hoki, ka inu.
And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and ate and drank.
12 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Piki ake ki ahau ki te maunga, a hei reira koe noho ai: a ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe nga papa kohatu, me te ture, me te whakahau kua oti nei i ahau te tuhituhi, hei whakaako mau ki a ratou.
And the LORD said to Moses, Come up to me on the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayst teach them.
13 Na ko te whakatikanga ake o Mohi, raua ko tana tangata, ko Hohua: ka piki atu a Mohi ki te maunga o te Atua.
And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up upon the mount of God.
14 I mea ano ia ki nga kaumatua, Taria ake maua i konei, kia hoki mai ra ano maua ki a koutou: na, ko Arona raua ko Huru tena hei hoa mo koutou: ki te whai take tetahi tangata, me haere ia ki a raua.
And he said to the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again to you: and behold, Aaron and Hur [are] with you: if any man hath any matters to do, let him come to them.
15 Na piki ana a Mohi ki te maunga, e taupokina ana hoki te maunga e te kapua:
And Moses went up upon the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
16 A i tau te kororia o Ihowa ki runga ki Maunga Hinai; a e ono nga ra i taupokina ai a reira e te kapua; a i te whitu o nga ra ka karanga ia ki a Mohi i waenganui o te kapua.
And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called to Moses from the midst of the cloud.
17 A i rite te ahua o te kororia o Ihowa ki te ahi e kai ana i runga i te tihi o te maunga, i te tirohanga a nga tama a Iharaira.
And the sight of the glory of the LORD [was] like devouring fire on the top of the mount, in the eyes of the children of Israel.
18 Na ka haere a Mohi ki waenganui o te kapua, a pikitia ana e ia te maunga: a e wha tekau nga ra o Mohi ki runga ki te maunga, e wha tekau hoki nga po.
And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and ascended the mount: and Moses was on the mount forty days and forty nights.
