1 Depois disse Deus a Moisés: Subi ao Senhor, tu e Arão, Nadabe e Abiú, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel, e adorai de longe.
2 Só Moisés se chegará ao Senhor; os, outros não se chegarão; nem o povo subirá com ele.
3 Veio, pois, Moisés e relatou ao povo todas as palavras do Senhor e todos os estatutos; então todo o povo respondeu a uma voz: Tudo o que o Senhor tem falado faremos.
4 Então Moisés escreveu todas as palavras do Senhor e, tendo-se levantado de manhã cedo, edificou um altar ao pé do monte, e doze colunas, segundo as doze tribos de Israel,
5 e enviou certos mancebos dos filhos de Israel, os quais ofereceram holocaustos, e sacrificaram ao Senhor sacrifícios pacíficos, de bois.
6 E Moisés tomou a metade do sangue, e a pôs em bacias; e a outra metade do sangue espargiu sobre o altar.
7 Também tomou o livro do pacto e o leu perante o povo; e o povo disse: Tudo o que o Senhor tem falado faremos, e obedeceremos.
8 Então tomou Moisés aquele sangue, e espargiu-o sobre o povo e disse: Eis aqui o sangue do pacto que o Senhor tem feito convosco no tocante a todas estas coisas.
9 Então subiram Moisés e Arão, Nadabe e Abiú, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel,
10 e viram o Deus de Israel, e debaixo de seus pés havia como que uma calçada de pedra de safira, que parecia com o próprio céu na sua pureza.
11 Deus, porém, não estendeu a sua mão contra os nobres dos filhos de Israel; eles viram a Deus, e comeram e beberam.
12 Depois disse o Senhor a Moisés: Sobe a mim ao monte, e espera ali; e dar-te-ei tábuas de pedra, e a lei, e os mandamentos que tenho escrito, para lhos ensinares.
13 E levantando-se Moisés com Josué, seu servidor, subiu ao monte de Deus,
14 tendo dito aos anciãos: Esperai-nos aqui, até que tornemos a vós; eis que Arão e Hur ficam convosco; quem tiver alguma questão, se chegará a eles.
15 E tendo Moisés subido ao monte, a nuvem cobriu o monte.
16 Também a glória do Senhor repousou sobre o monte Sinai, e a nuvem o cobriu por seis dias; e ao sétimo dia, do meio da nuvem, Deus chamou a Moisés.
17 Ora, a aparência da glória do Senhor era como um fogo consumidor no cume do monte, aos olhos dos filhos de Israel.
18 Moisés, porém, entrou no meio da nuvem, depois que subiu ao monte; e Moisés esteve no monte quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
1 And he said to Moses, Go up to Jehovah, thou and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship afar off.
2 And let Moses alone come near Jehovah; but they shall not come near; neither shall the people go up with him.
3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of Jehovah, and all the judgments; and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words that Jehovah has said will we do!
4 And Moses wrote all the words of Jehovah, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the mountain, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 And he sent the youths of the children of Israel, and they offered up burnt-offerings, and sacrificed sacrifices of peace-offering of bullocks to Jehovah.
6 And Moses took half the blood, and put {it} in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read {it} in the ears of the people; and they said, All that Jehovah has said will we do, and obey!
8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled {it} on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant that Jehovah has made with you concerning all these words.
9 And Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up;
10 and they saw the God of Israel; and there was under his feet as it were work of transparent sapphire, and as it were the form of heaven for clearness.
11 And on the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: they saw God, and ate and drank.
12 And Jehovah said to Moses, Come up to me into the mountain, and be there; and I will give thee the tables of stone, and the law, and the commandment that I have written, for their instruction.
13 And Moses rose up, and Joshua his attendant; and Moses went up to the mountain of God.
14 And he said to the elders, Wait here for us, until we return to you; and behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matter, let him come before them.
15 And Moses went up to the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
16 And the glory of Jehovah abode on mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days; and on the seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
17 And the appearance of the glory of Jehovah was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain, before the eyes of the children of Israel.
18 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and ascended the mountain. And Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
