Exodus 24

Now He said to Moses, “Come up to the Lord, you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship from afar. 2 And Moses alone shall come near the Lord, but they shall not come near; nor shall the people go up with him.”

3 So 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 we will do.” 4 And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord. And he rose early in the morning, and built an altar at the foot of the mountain, and twelve pillars according to the twelve tribes of Israel. 5 Then he sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to the Lord. 6 And Moses took half the blood and put it in basins, and half the blood he sprinkled on the altar. 7 Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read in the hearing of the people. And they said, “All that the Lord has said we will do, and be obedient.” 8 And Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said, “This is the blood of the covenant which the Lord has made with you according to all these words.”

9 Then Moses went up, also 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 sapphire stone, and it was like the very heavens in its clarity. 11 But on the nobles of the children of Israel He did not lay His hand. So they saw God, and they ate and drank.

12 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Come up to Me on the mountain and be there; and I will give you tablets of stone, and the law and commandments which I have written, that you may teach them.”

13 So Moses arose with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up to the mountain of God. 14 And he said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we come back to you. Indeed, Aaron and Hur are with you. If any man has a difficulty, let him go to them.” 15 Then Moses went up into the mountain, and a cloud covered the mountain.

16 Now the glory of the Lord rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the seventh day He called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud. 17 The sight of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel. 18 So Moses went into the midst of the cloud and went up into the mountain. And Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.

出埃及記 24

耶和華對摩西說：「你和亞倫、拿答、亞比戶，並以色列長老中的七十人，都要上到我這裡來，遠遠地下拜。 2 唯獨你可以親近耶和華，他們卻不可親近，百姓也不可和你一同上來。」 3 摩西下山，將耶和華的命令、典章都述說於百姓聽，眾百姓齊聲說：「耶和華所吩咐的，我們都必遵行。」 4 摩西將耶和華的命令都寫上。清早起來，在山下築一座壇，按以色列十二支派立十二根柱子， 5 又打發以色列人中的少年人去獻燔祭，又向耶和華獻牛為平安祭。 6 摩西將血一半盛在盆中，一半灑在壇上。 7 又將約書念給百姓聽，他們說：「耶和華所吩咐的，我們都必遵行。」 8 摩西將血灑在百姓身上，說：「你看，這是立約的血，是耶和華按這一切話與你們立約的憑據。」

9 摩西、亞倫、拿答、亞比戶，並以色列長老中的七十人，都上了山。 10 他們看見以色列的神，他腳下彷彿有平鋪的藍寶石，如同天色明淨。 11 他的手不加害在以色列的尊者身上。他們觀看神，他們又吃又喝。

12 耶和華對摩西說：「你上山到我這裡來，住在這裡，我要將石版並我所寫的律法和誡命賜給你，使你可以教訓百姓。」 13 摩西和他的幫手約書亞起來，上了神的山。 14 摩西對長老說：「你們在這裡等著，等到我們再回來。有亞倫、戶珥與你們同在，凡有爭訟的，都可以就近他們去。」 15 摩西上山，有雲彩把山遮蓋。 16 耶和華的榮耀停於西奈山，雲彩遮蓋山六天，第七天他從雲中召摩西。 17 耶和華的榮耀在山頂上，在以色列人眼前，形狀如烈火。 18 摩西進入雲中上山，在山上四十晝夜。
