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 the LORD, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship you afar off.

2 And Moses alone shall come near the 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 the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD has said will we do.

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

5 And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to the 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 the LORD has said 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, which the LORD has made with you concerning all these words.

9 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 on 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 to Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give you tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that you may teach them.

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

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

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

16 And the glory of the LORD stayed on mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called to Moses out of the middle 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 middle of the cloud, and got him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.
