King James Version with Apocrypha
1Pea pehē ʻe ia kia Mōsese, “ʻAlu hake koe kia Sihova, ʻa koe mo ʻElone, mo Natapi, mo ʻApiu, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli ʻe toko fitungofulu; pea punou hifo ʻakimoutolu mei he mamaʻo ʻo hū.
1And 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.
2Pea ko Mōsese tokotaha pe ʻe haʻu ʻo ofi kia Sihova: kaeʻoua te nau haʻu ʻo ofi; pea ʻoua naʻa ʻalu hake ʻae kakai mo ia.”
2And Moses alone shall come near the LORD : but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with him.
3¶ Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Mōsese ʻo ne tala ki he kakai ʻae ngaahi folofola kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, mo e ngaahi fono kotoa pē; pea tali lea taha pe ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻonau pehē, “Ko e ngaahi lea kotoa pē kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova te mau fai.”
3¶ 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.
4Pea naʻe tohi ʻe Mōsese ʻae ngaahi folofola kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, pea tuʻu hengihengi hake ia ʻi he pongipongi, ʻo ne langa ʻae feilaulauʻanga ʻi he lalo moʻunga, mo e maka ʻe hongofulu ma ua, ʻo fakatatau ki he faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu ma ua ʻo ʻIsileli.
4And 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.
5Pea fekau ʻe ia ʻae kau talavou ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea naʻa nau ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu kia Sihova, mo e ngaahi feilaulau ʻoe melino, ko e fanga pulu.
5And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD .
6Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Mōsese hono vaeua mālieʻanga ʻoe toto, ʻo ne lingi ia ki he ngaahi ipu; pea ko hono vahe ʻe taha ʻoe toto naʻa ne luluku ʻaki ʻae feilaulauʻanga.
6And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7Pea toʻo ʻe ia ʻae tohi ʻoe fuakava, ʻo ne lau ia ke ongoʻi ʻe he kakai: pea naʻa nau tala, ‘Ko e meʻa kotoa pē kuo folofola ki ai ʻa Sihova te mau fai, pea te mau talangofua.”
7And 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.
8Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Mōsese ʻae toto, ʻo ne luluku ia ki he kakai, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai, ko e toto ʻoe fuakava, ʻaia kuo fai ʻe Sihova mo kimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi folofola ni kotoa pē.”
8And 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.
9¶ Pea toki ʻalu hake ai ʻa Mōsese, mo ʻElone, mo Natapi, mo ʻApiu, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli ʻe toko fitungofulu.
9¶ Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
10Pea naʻa nau mamata ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻe ʻi hono lalo vaʻe ʻae ngāue ʻo hangē ha faliki maka ko e safaia, pea naʻe tatau mo e langi maʻa ʻa hono malama.
10And 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.
11Pea naʻe ʻikai hili hono nima ki he kau mātuʻa ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli; pea naʻa nau mamata ki he ʻOtua foki, ʻonau kai mo inu.
11And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.
12¶ Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, “ʻAlu hake koe kiate au ʻi he moʻunga, pea nofo ai: pea te u tuku kiate koe ʻae maka lafalafa ʻe ua, pea mo e fono, mo e ngaahi fekau kuo u tohi; koeʻuhi ke ke ako ʻaki ia.”
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.
13Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Mōsese mo hono tauhi ko Siosiua: pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Mōsese ki he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua.
13And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God.
14Pea naʻe tala ʻe ia ki he kau mātuʻa, “Mou tatali ʻi heni kiate kimaua, ke ʻoua ke ma toe ʻomi kiate kimoutolu: pea vakai, ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa ʻElone, mo Hua: kapau ʻe ai ha meʻa ʻi ha tangata ke fai, ke haʻu ia kiate kinaua.”
14And 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.
15Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Mōsese ki he moʻunga, pea naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻae moʻunga ʻe he ʻao.
15And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
16Pea naʻe nofo mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ki he moʻunga ko Sainai, pea naʻe ʻuʻufi ia ʻe he ʻao ʻi he ʻaho ʻe ono: pea naʻe folofola ia kia Mōsese ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho mei he loto ʻao.
16And 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.
17Pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ʻo hangē ko e afi fakaʻauha ʻi he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
17And 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.
18Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese ki he loto ʻao, ʻo ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga: pea naʻe ʻi he moʻunga ʻa Mōsese ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu mo e pō ʻe fāngofulu.
18And 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.
