Exodus 33

1 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Fi ìhín yìí sílẹ̀, ìwọ àti àwọn ènìyàn tí o mú gòkè láti Ejibiti wá, kí ẹ sì gòkè lọ sí ilẹ̀ tí Èmi ti pinnu ní ìbúra fún Abrahamu, Isaaki àti Jakọbu wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò fi fún irú-ọmọ rẹ.’

And the Lord said to Moses, Go forward, go up hence, you and your people, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt, into the land which I swore to Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed.

2 Èmi yóò rán angẹli ṣáájú yín, Èmi yóò sì lé àwọn Kenaani, àwọn ará Amori, àwọn ará Hiti, àwọn ará Peresi, àwọn ará Hifi àti àwọn ará Jebusi jáde.

And I will send at the same time my angel before your face, and he shall cast out the Amorite and the Chettite, and the Pherezite and Gergesite, and Evite, and Jebusite, and Chananite.

3 Ẹ gòkè lọ sí ilẹ̀ tí ó ń sàn fún wàrà àti oyin. Ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò ní lọ pẹ̀lú yín, nítorí ènìyàn ọlọ́rùn líle ni ẹ̀yin, kí èmi má ba à run yín ní ọ̀nà.”

And I will bring you into a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up with you, because you are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume you by the way.

4 Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn náà gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ìparun wọ̀nyí, wọ́n bẹ̀rẹ̀ sì ní kùn, ẹnìkankan kò sì le è wọ ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ rẹ̀.

And the people having heard this grievous saying, mourned in mourning apparel.

5 Nítorí Olúwa ti wí fún Mose pé, “Sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pé, ‘Ènìyàn Ọlọ́rùn líle ní ẹ̀yin, bí Èmi bá lè wá sí àárín yín ni ìṣẹ́jú kan, Èmi lè pa yín run. Nísìnsinyìí, bọ́ ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ rẹ kúrò, Èmi yóò sì gbèrò ohun tí Èmi yóò ṣe pẹ̀lú rẹ.’”

For the Lord said to the children of Israel, You are a stiff-necked people; take heed lest I bring on you another plague, and destroy you: now then put off your glorious apparel, and [your] ornaments, and I will show you what I will do to you.

6 Bẹ́ẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli bọ́ ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ wọn kúrò lára wọn ní òkè Horebu.

So the sons of Israel took off their ornaments and their array at the mount of Choreb.

7 Mose máa ń gbé àgọ́ náà, ó sì pa á sí ìta ibùdó, ó jìnnà díẹ̀ sí ibùdó, ó pè é ni “Àgọ́ àjọ.” Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ń béèrè Olúwa yóò lọ sí ibi àgọ́ àjọ náà ní ìta ibùdó.

And Moses took his tabernacle and pitched it without the camp, at a distance from the camp; and it was called the Tabernacle of Testimony: and it came to pass [that] every one that sought the Lord went forth to the tabernacle which was without the camp.

8 Nígbàkígbà tí Mose bá jáde lọ sí ibi àgọ́, gbogbo ènìyàn á dìde, wọ́n á sì dúró sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ wọn, wọn yóò máa wo Mose títí yóò fi wọ inú àgọ́ náà.

And whenever Moses went into the tabernacle without the camp, all the people stood every one watching by the doors of his tent; and when Moses departed, they took notice until he entered into the tabernacle.

9 Bí Mose ṣe wọ inú àgọ́ náà, ọ̀wọ́n àwọsánmọ̀ yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀, yóò sì dúró sí ẹnu ọnà, nígbà tí Olúwa ń sọ̀rọ̀ pẹ̀lú Mose.

And when Moses entered into the tabernacle, the pillar of the cloud descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and [God] talked to Moses.

10 Nígbàkígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn bá rí i ti ọ̀wọ́n àwọsánmọ̀ bá dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́, gbogbo wọn yóò dìde wọn yóò sì sìn, olúkúlùkù ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ rẹ̀.

And all the people saw the pillar of the cloud standing by the door of the tabernacle, and all the people stood and worshipped every one at the door of his tent.

11 Olúwa máa ń bá Mose sọ̀rọ̀ lójúkojú, gẹ́gẹ́ bí i pé ènìyàn ń bá ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ sọ̀rọ̀. Nígbà náà ni Mose yóò tún padà lọ sí ibùdó, ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin Joṣua ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ọmọ Nuni kò fi àgọ́ sílẹ̀.

And the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as if one should speak to his friend; and he retired into the camp: but his servant Joshua the son of Naue, a young man, departed not forth from the tabernacle.

12 Mose sọ fún Olúwa pé, “Ìwọ ti ń sọ fún mi, ‘Darí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí,’ ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò jẹ́ kí ń mọ ẹni tí ìwọ yóò rán pẹ̀lú mi. Ìwọ ti wí pé, ‘Èmi mọ̀ ọ́n nípa orúkọ, ìwọ sì ti rí ojúrere mi pẹ̀lú.’

And Moses said to the Lord, Behold! you say to me, Lead on this people; but you have not showed me whom you will send with me, but you have said to me, I know you above all, and you have favour with me.

13 Bí ìwọ bá ní inú dídùn pẹ̀lú mi, kọ́ mi ní ọ̀nà rẹ, kí èmi kí ó lè mọ̀ ọ́n, kí n sì le máa wá ojúrere rẹ pẹ̀lú. Rántí wí pé orílẹ̀-èdè yìí ènìyàn rẹ ni.”

If then I have found favour in your sight, reveal yourself to me, that I may evidently see you; that I may find favour in your sight, and that I may know that this great nation [is] your people.

14 Olúwa dáhùn wí pé, “Ojú mi yóò máa bá ọ lọ, Èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní ìsinmi.”

And he says, I myself will go before you, and give you rest.

15 Nígbà náà ni, Mose wí fún un pé, “Bí ojú rẹ kò bá bá wa lọ, má ṣe rán wa gòkè láti ìhín lọ.

And he says to him, If you go not up with us yourself, bring me not up hence.

16 Báwo ni ẹnikẹ́ni yóò ṣe mọ̀ pé inú rẹ dùn pẹ̀lú mi àti pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ àyàfi ti o bá bá wa lọ? Kí ni yóò lè yà mí àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ kúrò lára gbogbo ènìyàn tí ó wà ní ayé?”

And how shall it be surely known, that both I and this people have found favour with you, except only if you go with us? So both I and your people shall be glorified beyond all the nations, as many as are upon the earth.

17 Olúwa sì sọ fún Mose pé, “Èmi yóò ṣe ohun gbogbo tí ìwọ ti béèrè, nítorí inú mi dún sí o, Èmi sì mọ̀ ọ́n nípa orúkọ rẹ̀.”

And the Lord said to Moses, I will also do for you this thing, which you have spoken; for you have found grace before me, and I know you above all.

18 Mose sì wí pé, “Nísinsin yìí fi ògo rẹ hàn mí.”

And [Moses] says, Manifest yourself to me.

19 Olúwa sì wí pé, “Èmi yóò sì mú gbogbo ìre mí kọjá níwájú rẹ, Èmi yóò sì pòkìkí orúkọ Olúwa níwájú rẹ. Èmi yóò ṣàánú fún ẹni tí Èmi yóò ṣàánú fún, Èmi yóò sì ṣoore-ọ̀fẹ́ fún ẹni tí Èmi yóò ṣoore-ọ̀fẹ́ fún.

And [God] said, I will pass by before you with my glory, and I will call by my name, the Lord, before you; and I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and will have pity on whom I will have pity.

20 Ṣùgbọ́n,” ó wí pé, “Ìwọ kò le è rí ojú mi, nítorí kò sí ènìyàn kan tí ń rí mi, tí ó lè yè.”

And [God] said, You shall not be able to see my face; for no man shall see my face, and live.

21 Olúwa sì wí pé, “Ibìkan wà lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ ọ̀dọ̀ mi, níbi tí o ti lè dúró lórí àpáta.

And the Lord said, Behold, [there is] a place by me: you shall stand upon the rock;

22 Nígbà tí ògo mi bá kọjá, Èmi yóò gbé ọ sínú pàlàpálá àpáta, Èmi yóò sì bò ọ́ pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ mi títí Èmi yóò fi rékọjá.

and when my glory shall pass by, then I will put you into a hole of the rock; and I will cover you over with my hand, until I shall have passed by.

23 Nígbà tí Èmi yóò mú ọwọ́ mi kúrò, ìwọ yóò sì rí ẹ̀yìn mi; ṣùgbọ́n ojú mi ni o kò ní rí.”

And I will remove my hand, and then shall you see my back parts; but my face shall not appear to you.
