1 Depois disse a Moisés: Sobe ao SENHOR, tu e Arão, Nadabe e Abiú, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel; e adorai de longe.

2 E só Moisés se chegará ao Senhor; mas eles não se cheguem, nem o povo suba com ele.

3 Veio, pois, Moisés, e contou ao povo todas as palavras do Senhor, e todos os estatutos; então o povo respondeu a uma voz, e disse: Todas as palavras, que o Senhor tem falado, faremos.

4 Moisés escreveu todas as palavras do Senhor, e levantou-se pela manhã de madrugada, e edificou um altar ao pé do monte, e doze monumentos, segundo as doze tribos de Israel;

5 E enviou alguns jovens dos filhos de Israel, os quais ofereceram holocaustos e sacrificaram ao Senhor sacrifícios pacíficos de bezerros.

6 E Moisés tomou a metade do sangue, e a pôs em bacias; e a outra metade do sangue espargiu sobre o altar.

7 E tomou o livro da aliança e o leu aos ouvidos do povo, e eles disseram: 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 da aliança que o Senhor tem feito convosco sobre todas estas palavras.

9 E 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 pavimentação de pedra de safira, que se parecia com o céu na sua claridade.

11 Porém não estendeu a sua mão sobre os escolhidos dos filhos de Israel, mas viram a Deus, e comeram e beberam.

12 Então disse o Senhor a Moisés: Sobe a mim ao monte, e fica lá; e dar-te-ei as tábuas de pedra e a lei, e os mandamentos que tenho escrito, para os ensinar.

13 E levantou-se Moisés com Josué seu servidor; e subiu Moisés ao monte de Deus.

14 E disse aos anciãos: Esperai-nos aqui, até que tornemos a vós; e eis que Arão e Hur ficam convosco; quem tiver algum negócio, se chegará a eles.

15 E, subindo Moisés ao monte, a nuvem cobriu o monte.

16 E a glória do Senhor repousou sobre o monte Sinai, e a nuvem o cobriu por seis dias; e ao sétimo dia chamou a Moisés do meio da nuvem.

17 E o parecer da glória do Senhor era como um fogo consumidor no cume do monte, aos olhos dos filhos de Israel.

18 E Moisés 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, Come up to the Lord, you and Aaron, and Nadab and Abihu and seventy of the chiefs of Israel; and give me worship from a distance.

2 And Moses only may come near to the Lord; but the others are not to come near, and the people may not come up with them.

3 Then Moses came and put before the people all the words of the Lord and his laws: and all the people, answering with one voice, said, Whatever the Lord has said we will do.

4 Then Moses put down in writing all the words of the Lord, and he got up early in the morning and made an altar at the foot of the mountain, with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel.

5 And he sent some of the young men of the children of Israel to make burned offerings and peace-offerings of oxen to the Lord.

6 And Moses took half the blood and put it in basins; draining out half of the blood over the altar.

7 And he took the book of the agreement, reading it in the hearing of the people: and they said, Everything which the Lord has said we will do, and we will keep his laws.

8 Then Moses took the blood and let it come on the people, and said, This blood is the sign of the agreement which the Lord has made with you in these words.

9 Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the chiefs of Israel went up:

10 And they saw the God of Israel; and under his feet there was, as it seemed, a jewelled floor, clear as the heavens.

11 And he put not his hand on the chiefs of the children of Israel: they saw God, and took food and drink.

12 And the Lord said to Moses, Come up to me on the mountain, and take your place there: and I will give you the stones on which I have put in writing the law and the orders, so that you may give the people knowledge of them.

13 Then Moses and Joshua his servant got up; and Moses went up into the mountain of God.

14 And he said to the chiefs, Keep your places here till we come back to you: Aaron and Hur are with you; if anyone has any cause let him go to them.

15 And Moses went up into the mountain, and it was covered by the cloud.

16 And the glory of the Lord was resting on Mount Sinai, and the cloud was over it for six days; and on the seventh day he said Moses' name out of the cloud.

17 And the glory of the Lord was like a flame on the top of the mountain before the eyes of the children of Israel.

18 And Moses went up the mountain, into the cloud, and was there for forty days and forty nights.
