1 Depois disse a Moisés: Sobe ao SENHOR, tu e Arão, Nadabe e Abiú, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel; e adorai de longe.
2 E só Moisés se chegará ao Senhor; mas eles não se cheguem, nem o povo suba com ele.
3 Veio, pois, Moisés, e contou ao povo todas as palavras do Senhor, e todos os estatutos; então o povo respondeu a uma voz, e disse: Todas as palavras, que o Senhor tem falado, faremos.
4 Moisés escreveu todas as palavras do Senhor, e levantou-se pela manhã de madrugada, e edificou um altar ao pé do monte, e doze monumentos, segundo as doze tribos de Israel;
5 E enviou alguns jovens dos filhos de Israel, os quais ofereceram holocaustos e sacrificaram ao Senhor sacrifícios pacíficos de bezerros.
6 E Moisés tomou a metade do sangue, e a pôs em bacias; e a outra metade do sangue espargiu sobre o altar.
7 E tomou o livro da aliança e o leu aos ouvidos do povo, e eles disseram: Tudo o que o Senhor tem falado faremos, e obedeceremos.
8 Então tomou Moisés aquele sangue, e espargiu-o sobre o povo, e disse: Eis aqui o sangue da aliança que o Senhor tem feito convosco sobre todas estas palavras.
9 E subiram Moisés e Arão, Nadabe e Abiú, e setenta dos anciãos de Israel.
10 E viram o Deus de Israel, e debaixo de seus pés havia como que uma pavimentação de pedra de safira, que se parecia com o céu na sua claridade.
11 Porém não estendeu a sua mão sobre os escolhidos dos filhos de Israel, mas viram a Deus, e comeram e beberam.
12 Então disse o Senhor a Moisés: Sobe a mim ao monte, e fica lá; e dar-te-ei as tábuas de pedra e a lei, e os mandamentos que tenho escrito, para os ensinar.
13 E levantou-se Moisés com Josué seu servidor; e subiu Moisés ao monte de Deus.
14 E disse aos anciãos: Esperai-nos aqui, até que tornemos a vós; e eis que Arão e Hur ficam convosco; quem tiver algum negócio, se chegará a eles.
15 E, subindo Moisés ao monte, a nuvem cobriu o monte.
16 E a glória do Senhor repousou sobre o monte Sinai, e a nuvem o cobriu por seis dias; e ao sétimo dia chamou a Moisés do meio da nuvem.
17 E o parecer da glória do Senhor era como um fogo consumidor no cume do monte, aos olhos dos filhos de Israel.
18 E Moisés entrou no meio da nuvem, depois que subiu ao monte; e Moisés esteve no monte quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
1 And he said to Moses, Come up to LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship ye afar off.
2 And Moses alone shall come near to LORD, but they shall not come near, neither shall the people go up with him.
3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of LORD, and all the ordinances. And all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which LORD has spoken will we do.
4 And Moses wrote all the words of LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar below the mount, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 And he sent young men of the sons of Israel, who offered burnt-offerings, and sacrificed peace-offerings of oxen to LORD.
6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people. And they said, All that LORD has spoken will we do, and be obedient.
8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant that LORD has made with you concerning all these words.
9 Then Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up.
10 And they saw the God of Israel. And there was under his feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and as it were the very heaven for clearness.
11 And he laid not his hand upon the nobles of the sons of Israel. And they beheld God, and ate and drank.
12 And LORD said to Moses, Come up to me onto the mount, and be there, and I will give thee the tablets of stone, and the law and the commandment, which I have written, that thou may teach them.
13 And Moses rose up, and Joshua his minister, and Moses went up onto the mount of God.
14 And he said to the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again to you. And, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever has a case, let him come near to them.
15 And Moses went up onto the mount, and the cloud covered the mount.
16 And the glory of LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And the seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
17 And the appearance of the glory of LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the sons of Israel.
18 And Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up onto the mount. And Moses was on the mount forty days and forty nights.
