¹He said to Moses, “Come up to Yahweh, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship from a distance.

¹In Mojzesu je rekel: Pridi gori h GOSPODU, ti in Aron, Nadab in Abihu in sedemdeset izmed starejšin Izraelovih, in molite oddaleč.

²Moses alone shall come near to Yahweh, but they shall not come near, neither shall the people go up with him.”

²In Mojzes sam naj pristopi h GOSPODU, oni pa naj ne pristopijo, in tudi ljudstvo naj ne hodi gori ž njim.

³Moses came and told the people all the words of Yahweh, and all the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, and said, “All the words which Yahweh has spoken will we do.”

³In Mojzes gre in pove ljudstvu vse besede GOSPODOVE in vse sodne pravice; in vse ljudstvo odgovori z enim glasom, rekoč: Storiti hočemo vse besede, ki jih je govoril GOSPOD.

⁴Moses wrote all the words of Yahweh, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the mountain, and twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel.

⁴In Mojzes je napisal vse besede GOSPODOVE. In vstane zgodaj zjutraj in sezida oltar pod goro in dvanajst kamenenih spomenikov po številu dvanajstih rodov Izraelovih.

⁵He sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of cattle to Yahweh.

⁵In pošlje izmed Izraelovih otrok mladeniče, ki so darovali žgalne daritve in klali mirovne daritve juncev GOSPODU.

⁶Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.

⁶In Mojzes vzame polovico krvi in jo dene v medenice, z drugo polovico krvi pa poškropi oltar.

⁷He took the book of the covenant and read it in the hearing of the people, and they said, “All that Yahweh has spoken will we do, and be obedient.”

⁷In vzame knjigo zaveze in bere, da sliši ljudstvo. In rekli so: Storiti hočemo vse, kar je govoril GOSPOD, in pokorni bodemo.

⁸Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, “Look, this is the blood of the covenant, which Yahweh has made with you concerning all these words.”

⁸In Mojzes vzame kri in poškropi ž njo ljudstvo in reče: Glejte, kri zaveze, ki jo je GOSPOD z vami sklenil na podlagi vseh teh besed.

⁹Then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up.

⁹Tedaj so šli gori Mojzes in Aron, Nadab in Abihu in sedemdeset izmed starejšin Izraelovih.

¹⁰They saw the God of Israel. Under his feet was like a paved work of sapphire or, lapis lazuli stone, like the skies for clearness.

¹⁰In videli so Boga Izraelovega: in pod njegovimi nogami je bilo kakor tla iz safirovih plošč in kakor nebo, kadar je jasno.

¹¹He didn’t lay his hand on the nobles of the children of Israel. They saw God, and ate and drank.

¹¹In ni iztegnil roke svoje zoper plemenitnike Izraelovih sinov, in videli so Boga in so jedli in pili.

¹²Yahweh said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain, and stay here, and I will give you the tables of stone with the law and the commands that I have written, that you may teach them.”

¹²In GOSPOD reče Mojzesu: Stopi k meni na goro in bodi tukaj; in dam ti kameniti plošči ter postavo in zapoved, katero sem napisal, da jih učiš.

¹³Moses rose up with Joshua, his servant, and Moses went up onto God’s Mountain.

¹³Mojzes torej vstane in Jozue, strežnik njegov, in Mojzes stopi na goro Božjo.

¹⁴He said to the elders, “Wait here for us, until we come again to you. Behold, Aaron and Hur are with you. Whoever is involved in a dispute can go to them.”

¹⁴Starejšinam pa je bil rekel: Ostanite tukaj, dokler se k vam ne povrneva; in glejte, Aron in Hur sta pri vas: če ima kdo kako reč, naj pride k njima.

¹⁵Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.

¹⁵In Mojzes stopi na goro, in oblak pokrije goro.

¹⁶The glory of Yahweh settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. The seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud.

¹⁶In slava GOSPODOVA je počivala na gori Sinajski, in oblak jo je pokrival šest dni; in sedmi dan je poklical Mojzesa iz sredi oblaka.

¹⁷The appearance of the glory of Yahweh was like devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.

¹⁷In kazala se je slava GOSPODOVA kakor požirajoč ogenj na vrhu gore pred očmi sinov Izraelovih.In Mojzes je šel v sredo oblaka in stopil na goro; in bil je Mojzes na gori štirideset dni in štirideset noči.

¹⁸Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up on the mountain; and Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.

¹⁸In Mojzes je šel v sredo oblaka in stopil na goro; in bil je Mojzes na gori štirideset dni in štirideset noči.
