24 At kaniyang sinabi kay Moises, Sumampa ka sa kinaroroonan ng Panginoon, ikaw, at si Aaron, si Nadab, at si Abiu, at pitong pu ng mga matanda sa Israel; at sumamba kayo mula sa malayo:

At si Moises lamang ang lalapit sa Panginoon; datapuwa't sila'y hindi lalapit; o ang bayan man ay sasampang kasama niya.

At lumapit si Moises at isinaysay sa bayan ang lahat ng mga salita ng Panginoon, at ang lahat ng mga palatuntunan. At ang buong bayan ay sumagot ng paminsan, at nagsabi, Lahat ng mga salita na sinalita ng Panginoon, ay aming gagawin.

At sinulat ni Moises ang lahat ng mga salita ng Panginoon, at bumangon ng maaga sa kinaumagahan, at nagtayo ng isang dambana sa paanan ng bundok, at ng labing dalawang batong pinakaalaala, ayon sa labing dalawang lipi ng Israel.

At kaniyang sinugo ang mga binata ng mga anak ni Israel, na nagsipaghandog ng mga handog na susunugin at nagsipaghain sa Panginoon ng handog na baka tungkol sa kapayapaan.

At kinuha ni Moises ang kalahati ng dugo, at inilagay sa mga tasa; at ang kalahati ng dugo ay iniwisik sa ibabaw ng dambana.

At kaniyang kinuha ang aklat ng tipan, at binasa sa pakinig ng bayan: at kanilang sinabi, Lahat ng sinalita ng Panginoon ay aming gagawin, at kami ay magmamasunurin.

At kinuha ni Moises ang dugo at iniwisik sa bayan, at sinabi, Narito ang dugo ng tipan, na ipinakipagtipan ng Panginoon sa inyo tungkol sa lahat ng mga salitang ito.

Nang magkagayo'y sumampa si Moises, at si Aaron, si Nadab, at si Abiu, at pitongpu ng mga matanda sa Israel:

10 At kanilang nakita ang Dios ng Israel; at mayroon sa ilalim ng kaniyang mga paa na parang isang yaring lapag na batong zafiro, at paris din ng langit sa kaliwanagan.

11 At sa mga mahal na tao sa mga anak ni Israel ay hindi niya ipinatong ang kaniyang kamay: at sila'y tumingin sa Dios, at kumain at uminom.

12 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Sampahin mo ako sa bundok, at dumoon ka: at ikaw ay bibigyan ko ng mga tapyas na bato, at ng kautusan, at ng utos na aking isinulat, upang iyong maituro sa kanila.

13 At tumindig si Moises, at si Josue na kaniyang tagapangasiwa: at si Moises ay sumampa sa bundok ng Dios.

14 At kaniyang sinabi sa mga matanda, Hintayin ninyo kami rito hanggang sa kami ay bumalik sa inyo: at, narito si Aaron at si Hur ay kasama ninyo: sinomang magkaroon ng usap ay lumapit sa kanila.

15 At sumampa si Moises sa bundok at tinakpan ng ulap ang bundok.

16 At ang kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon ay nanahan sa ibabaw ng bundok ng Sinai, at tinakpan ng ulap na anim na araw: at sa ikapitong araw ay tinawag niya si Moises sa gitna ng ulap.

17 At ang anyo ng kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon ay paris ng apoy na manunupok sa ibabaw ng taluktok ng bundok, sa harap ng mga mata ng mga anak ni Israel.

18 At pumasok si Moises sa gitna ng ulap, at sumampa sa bundok: at si Moises ay natira sa bundok na apat na pung araw at apat na pung gabi.

24 And he said unto Moses, Come up unto the Lord, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off.

And Moses alone shall come near the Lord: but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with him.

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 do.

And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.

And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the Lord.

And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.

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.

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.

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

10 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 his clearness.

11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.

12 And the Lord said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them.

13 And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God.

14 And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come unto them.

15 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.

16 And the glory of the Lord abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.

17 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 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount 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, but Moses alone is to approach(D) the Lord; the others must not come near. And the people may not come up with him.”

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) 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. Then he sent young Israelite men, and they offered burnt offerings(J) and sacrificed young bulls as fellowship offerings(K) to the Lord. Moses(L) took half of the blood(M) and put it in bowls, and the other half he splashed(N) against the altar. 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)

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.”

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)
