Moïse sur la montagne de Sinaï
24 Dieu dit à Moïse: Monte vers l’Eternel, toi et Aaron, Nadab et Abihu, et soixante-dix des anciens d’Israël, et vous vous prosternerez de loin. 2 Moïse s’approchera seul de l’Eternel; les autres ne s’approcheront pas, et le peuple ne montera point avec lui.
3 Moïse vint rapporter au peuple toutes les paroles de l’Eternel et toutes les lois. Le peuple entier répondit d’une même voix: Nous ferons tout ce que l’Eternel a dit.
4 Moïse écrivit toutes les paroles de l’Eternel. Puis il se leva de bon matin; il bâtit un autel au pied de la montagne, et dressa douze pierres pour les douze tribus d’Israël. 5 Il envoya des jeunes hommes, enfants d’Israël, pour offrir à l’Eternel des holocaustes, et immoler des taureaux en sacrifices d’actions de grâces. 6 Moïse prit la moitié du sang, qu’il mit dans des bassins, et il répandit l’autre moitié sur l’autel. 7 Il prit le livre de l’alliance, et le lut en présence du peuple; ils dirent: Nous ferons tout ce que l’Eternel a dit, et nous obéirons. 8 Moïse prit le sang, et il le répandit sur le peuple, en disant: Voici le sang de l’alliance que l’Eternel a faite avec vous[a] selon toutes ces paroles.
9 Moïse monta avec Aaron, Nadab et Abihu, et soixante-dix anciens d’Israël. 10 Ils virent le Dieu d’Israël; sous ses pieds, c’était comme un ouvrage de saphir transparent, comme le ciel lui-même dans sa pureté. 11 Il n’étendit point sa main sur l’élite des enfants d’Israël. Ils virent Dieu, et ils mangèrent et burent.
12 L’Eternel dit à Moïse: Monte vers moi sur la montagne, et reste là; je te donnerai des tables de pierre, la loi et les ordonnances que j’ai écrites pour leur instruction. 13 Moïse se leva, avec Josué qui le servait, et Moïse monta sur la montagne de Dieu. 14 Il dit aux anciens: Attendez-nous ici, jusqu’à ce que nous revenions auprès de vous. Voici, Aaron et Hur resteront avec vous; si quelqu’un a un différend, c’est à eux qu’il s’adressera.
15 Moïse monta sur la montagne, et la nuée couvrit la montagne. 16 La gloire de l’Eternel reposa sur le mont Sinaï, et la nuée le couvrit pendant six jours. Le septième jour, l’Eternel appela Moïse du milieu de la nuée. 17 L’aspect de la gloire de l’Eternel était comme un feu dévorant sur le sommet de la montagne, aux yeux des enfants d’Israël. 18 Moïse entra au milieu de la nuée, et il monta sur la montagne. Moïse demeura sur la montagne quarante jours et quarante nuits.

The Blood of the Covenant
24 Then he said to Moses, “Come up to the Lord, you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship at a distance.(A) 2 Moses alone shall come near the Lord, but the others shall not come near, and the people shall not come up with him.”
3 Moses went and told the people all the words of the Lord and all the ordinances, and all the people answered with one voice and said, “All the words that the Lord has spoken we will do.”(B) 4 And Moses wrote down all the words of the Lord. He rose early in the morning, built an altar at the foot of the mountain, and set up twelve pillars, corresponding to the twelve tribes of Israel.(C) 5 He sent young men of the Israelites, who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed oxen as offerings of well-being to the Lord. 6 Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he dashed against the altar.(D) 7 Then he took the book of the covenant and read it in the hearing of the people, and they said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient.”(E) 8 Moses took the blood and dashed it on the people, and said, “Here is the blood of the covenant that the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words.”(F)
On the Mountain with God
9 Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up,(G) 10 and they saw the God of Israel. Under his feet there was something like a pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness.(H) 11 God[a] did not lay his hand on the chief men of the Israelites; they beheld God, and they ate and drank.
12 The Lord said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain and wait there; I will give you the tablets of stone, with the law and the commandment, which I have written for their instruction.” 13 So Moses set out with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up onto the mountain of God. 14 To the elders he had said, “Wait here for us, until we come back to you. Look, Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever has a dispute may go to them.”
15 Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.(I) 16 The glory of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days; on the seventh day he called to Moses out of the cloud.(J) 17 Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the Israelites.(K) 18 Moses entered the cloud and went up on the mountain. Moses was on the mountain for forty days and forty nights.(L)

24 The Lord now instructed Moses, “Come up here with Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel. All of you except Moses are to worship at a distance. 2 Moses alone shall come near to the Lord; and remember, none of the ordinary people are permitted to come up into the mountain at all.”
3 Then Moses announced to the people all the laws and regulations God had given him; and the people answered in unison, “We will obey them all.”
4 Moses wrote down the laws; and early the next morning he built an altar at the foot of the mountain, with twelve pillars around the altar because there were twelve tribes of Israel. 5 Then he sent some of the young men to sacrifice the burnt offerings and peace offerings to the Lord. 6 Moses took half of the blood of these animals and drew it off into basins. The other half he splashed against the altar.
7 And he read to the people the Book he had written—the Book of the Covenant—containing God’s directions and laws. And the people said again, “We solemnly promise to obey every one of these rules.”
8 Then Moses threw the blood from the basins toward the people and said, “This blood confirms and seals the covenant the Lord has made with you in giving you these laws.”
9 Then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up into the mountain. 10 And they saw the God of Israel; under his feet there seemed to be a pavement of brilliant sapphire stones, as clear as the heavens.
11 Yet, even though the elders saw God, he did not destroy them; and they had a meal together before the Lord.
12 And the Lord said to Moses, “Come up to me into the mountain, and remain until I give you the laws and commandments I have written on tablets of stone, so that you can teach the people from them.” 13 So Moses and Joshua, his assistant, went up into the mountain of God.
14 He told the elders, “Stay here and wait for us until we come back; if there are any problems while I am gone, consult with Aaron and Hur.”
15 Then Moses went up the mountain and disappeared into the cloud at the top. 16 And the glory of the Lord rested upon Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days; the seventh day he called to Moses from the cloud. 17 Those at the bottom of the mountain saw the awesome sight: the glory of the Lord on the mountaintop looked like a raging fire. 18 And Moses disappeared into the cloud-covered mountaintop, and was there for forty days and forty nights.

The Covenant Confirmed
24 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Come up to the Lord, you and Aaron,(A) Nadab and Abihu,(B) and seventy of the elders(C) of Israel. You are to worship at a distance, 2 but Moses alone is to approach(D) the Lord; the others must not come near. And the people may not come up with him.”
3 When Moses went and told the people all the Lord’s words and laws,(E) they responded with one voice, “Everything the Lord has said we will do.”(F) 4 Moses then wrote(G) down everything the Lord had said.
He got up early the next morning and built an altar(H) at the foot of the mountain and set up twelve stone pillars(I) representing the twelve tribes of Israel. 5 Then he sent young Israelite men, and they offered burnt offerings(J) and sacrificed young bulls as fellowship offerings(K) to the Lord. 6 Moses(L) took half of the blood(M) and put it in bowls, and the other half he splashed(N) against the altar. 7 Then he took the Book of the Covenant(O) and read it to the people. They responded, “We will do everything the Lord has said; we will obey.”(P)
8 Moses then took the blood, sprinkled it on the people(Q) and said, “This is the blood of the covenant(R) that the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words.”
9 Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and the seventy elders(S) of Israel went up 10 and saw(T) the God of Israel. Under his feet was something like a pavement made of lapis lazuli,(U) as bright blue as the sky.(V) 11 But God did not raise his hand against these leaders of the Israelites; they saw(W) God, and they ate and drank.(X)
12 The Lord said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain and stay here, and I will give you the tablets of stone(Y) with the law and commandments I have written for their instruction.”
13 Then Moses set out with Joshua(Z) his aide, and Moses went up on the mountain(AA) of God. 14 He said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we come back to you. Aaron and Hur(AB) are with you, and anyone involved in a dispute(AC) can go to them.”
15 When Moses went up on the mountain, the cloud(AD) covered it, 16 and the glory(AE) of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai.(AF) For six days the cloud covered the mountain, and on the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from within the cloud.(AG) 17 To the Israelites the glory of the Lord looked like a consuming fire(AH) on top of the mountain. 18 Then Moses entered the cloud as he went on up the mountain. And he stayed on the mountain forty(AI) days and forty nights.(AJ)
