1In the third month after the children of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, on that same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai.
1 Israyla izey Misira funyaŋo banda, handu hinzanta zaari sintina, han din hane no i furo Sinayi ganjo ra.
2When they had departed from Rephidim, and had come to the wilderness of Sinai, they encamped in the wilderness; and there Israel encamped before the mountain.
2 Saaya kaŋ i tun Refidim, i to Sinayi ganjo ra ka zumbu noodin. Israyla izey na gata te noodin tondo tanjay.
3Moses went up to God, and Yahweh called to him out of the mountain, saying, “This is what you shall tell the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
3 Musa mo kaaru ka koy Irikoy do. Rabbi jinda fun tondo boŋ k'a ce ka ne: «Yaa no ni ga ci Yakuba izey se, ma ne Israyla izey se:
4‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings, and brought you to myself.
4 ‹Araŋ di haŋ kaŋ ay te Misirancey se, mate kaŋ cine ay n'araŋ sambu zeeban fatayaŋ boŋ ka kande araŋ ay do.
5Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice, and keep my covenant, then you shall be my own possession from among all peoples; for all the earth is mine;
5 Sohõ binde, da day daahir araŋ ga hangan ay sanno se, araŋ m'ay sappa haggoy mo, kal araŋ ga ciya ay wane yaŋ, ka goro waani ay se ndunnya dumey kulu ra, zama ndunnya kulu ya ay wane no.
6and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”
6 Araŋ ga ciya alfagayaŋ kunda ay se, dumi hanante.› Sanney kaŋ ni ga ci Israyla izey se nooya.»
7Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which Yahweh commanded him.
7 Musa kaa ka jama arkusey ce, ka sanney din kulu kaŋ Rabbi n'a lordi* nd'a ci i jine.
8All the people answered together, and said, “All that Yahweh has spoken we will do.” Moses reported the words of the people to Yahweh.
8 Jama kulu binde tu me folloŋ ka ne: «Hay kulu kaŋ Rabbi ci, iri g'a te.» Musa mo ye nda jama sanno Rabbi do.
9Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I come to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever.” Moses told the words of the people to Yahweh.
9 Rabbi ne Musa se koyne: «Guna, ay goono ga kaa ni do hirriyaŋ bi ra, zama borey ma maa waati kaŋ ay ga salaŋ da nin, i ma naanay ni gaa mo hal abada.» Musa binde na jama sanney ci Rabbi se.
10Yahweh said to Moses, “Go to the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments,
10 Kala Rabbi ne Musa se: «Ni ma koy jama do k'i hanandi hunkuna nda suba mo, i ma ngey bankaarayey nyuna.
11and be ready against the third day; for on the third day Yahweh will come down in the sight of all the people on Mount Sinai.
11 I ma soola hala zaari hinzanta, zama zaari hinzanta hane Rabbi ga zumbu jama kulu jine Sinayi tondo boŋ.
12You shall set bounds to the people all around, saying, ‘Be careful that you don’t go up onto the mountain, or touch its border. Whoever touches the mountain shall be surely put to death.
12 Kala ni ma hirriyaŋ daŋ jama se ka tondo windi. Ma ne i se: ‹Araŋ ma laakal d'araŋ boŋ, araŋ ma si kaaru tondo boŋ, araŋ ma s'a jabo ham mo. Baafuna kaŋ na tondo ham kulu, sikka si i g'a wi.
13No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether it is animal or man, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come up to the mountain.”
13 Kambe kulu ma si lamb'a gaa bo, amma haciika i g'a catu ka wi nda tondiyaŋ, wala i m'a hay. Da alman no wala boro no, a ma si funa.› Saaya kaŋ hillo ga hẽ, i ma ziji tondo boŋ.»
14Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
14 Musa zumbu ka fun tondo boŋ ka kaa jama do. A na jama hanandi, i na ngey bankaaray nyuna mo.
15He said to the people, “Be ready by the third day. Don’t have sexual relations with a woman.”
15 Kal a ne jama se: «Wa soola hala zaari hinzanta ga to. Araŋ ma si maan wayboro mo.»
16It happened on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain, and the sound of an exceedingly loud trumpet; and all the people who were in the camp trembled.
16 A ciya mo, zaari hinzanta hane kaŋ mo bo, i maa kaatiyaŋ. I di maliyaŋ da hirriyaŋ bi tondo boŋ. I maa hilli jinde kaŋ go ga hẽ da gaabi gumo. Jama kulu binde kaŋ go gatey ra gaahamey jijiri.
17Moses led the people out of the camp to meet God; and they stood at the lower part of the mountain.
17 Musa nda borey mo fatta gata ra zama ngey ma Irikoy kubay, i kay mo tondo caso gaa.
18Mount Sinai, all it, smoked, because Yahweh descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.
18 Sinayi tondo kulu go ga dullu kaa, zama Rabbi zumbu a boŋ danji ra. Dullo binde ciciri danga yaara dullu cine. Tondo kulu jijiri gumo mo.
19When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
19 Hillo jinda go ga tonton da gaabi gumo. Musa go ga salaŋ, Irikoy mo go ga tu a se da jinde.
20Yahweh came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain. Yahweh called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
20 Rabbi zumbu Sinayi tondo yolla gaa. Rabbi na Musa ce a ma kaaru ka kaa tondo yolla gaa. Musa mo kaaru ka koy.
21Yahweh said to Moses, “Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to Yahweh to gaze, and many of them perish.
21 Kala Rabbi ne Musa se: «Koy ka gaabandi borey se, i ma si bisa ka kaa Rabbi do gomdo se, hal i ra boro boobo ma si halaci.
22Let the priests also, who come near to Yahweh, sanctify themselves, lest Yahweh break forth on them.”
22 Alfagey mo kaŋ yaŋ ga koy ka maan Rabbi do ma ngey boŋ hanandi, zama Rabbi ma si firsi i gaa se.»
23Moses said to Yahweh, “The people can’t come up to Mount Sinai, for you warned us, saying, ‘Set bounds around the mountain, and sanctify it.’”
23 Musa ne Rabbi se: «Borey si hin ka kaaru Sinayi tondo boŋ, zama ni jin ka sanno gaabandi iri se ka ne: ‹Ma hirriyaŋ daŋ tondo do haray. M'a hanandi k'a fay waani mo.› »
24Yahweh said to him, “Go down and you shall bring Aaron up with you, but don’t let the priests and the people break through to come up to Yahweh, lest he break forth on them.”
24 Kala Rabbi ne: «Tun ka zumbu ganda. Ma ye ka kaaru koyne, nin da Haruna ni banda. Amma ma si naŋ alfagey da borey ma bisa ka kaaru ka kaa Rabbi do, a ma si firsi i gaa.»
25So Moses went down to the people, and told them.
25 Musa zumbu borey do ka ci i se.
