GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Εις τον τριτον μηνα της εξοδου των υιων Ισραηλ εκ της Αιγυπτου, την ημεραν ταυτην ηλθον εις την ερημον Σινα.	1 In the third month of the departure of Israel from the land of Egypt, in that day, they arrived in the wilderness of Sinai.
2 Εσηκωθησαν δε απο Ραφιδειν και ηλθον εις την ερημον Σινα και εστρατοπεδευσαν εν τη ερημω? και εκει κατεσκηνωσεν ο Ισραηλ απεναντι του ορους.	2 Thus, setting out from Raphidim, and going directly to the desert of Sinai, they encamped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents away from the region of the mountain.
3 Ο δε Μωυσης ανεβη προς τον Θεον? και εκαλεσεν αυτον ο Κυριος εκ του ορους, λεγων, Ουτω θελεις ειπει προς τον οικον Ιακωβ, και αναγγειλει προς τους υιους Ισραηλ.	3 Then Moses ascended to God. And the Lord called to him from the mountain, and he said: “This you shall say to the house of Jacob, and announce to the sons of Israel:
4 Σεις ειδετε οσα εκαμα εις τους Αιγυπτιους, και σας εσηκωσα ως επι πτερυγων αετου και σας εφερα προς εμαυτον?	4 ‘You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, in what way I carried you upon the wings of eagles and how I have taken you for myself.
5 τωρα λοιπον εαν τωοντι υπακουσητε εις την φωνην μου, και φυλαξητε την διαθηκην μου, θελετε εισθαι εις εμε ο εκλεκτος απο παντων των λαων? διοτι ιδικη μου ειναι πασα η γη?	5 If, therefore, you will hear my voice, and you will keep my covenant, you will be to me a particular possession out of all people. For all the earth is mine.
6 και σεις θελετε εισθαι εις εμε βασιλειον ιερατευμα και εθνος αγιον. Ουτοι ειναι οι λογοι, τους οποιους θελεις ειπει προς τους υιους Ισραηλ.	6 And you will be to me a priestly kingdom and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you will speak to the sons of Israel.”
7 Και ηλθεν ο Μωυσης και εκαλεσε τους πρεσβυτερους του λαου και εθεσεν εμπροσθεν αυτων παντας εκεινους τους λογους, τους οποιους προσεταξεν εις αυτον ο Κυριος.	7 Moses went, and calling together those greater by birth among the people, he set forth all the words which the Lord had commanded.
8 Και απεκριθη ομοφωνως πας ο λαος, λεγων, Παντα οσα ειπεν ο Κυριος θελομεν πραξει. Και ανεφερεν ο Μωυσης προς τον Κυριον τους λογους του λαου.	8 And all the people responded together: “Everything that the Lord has spoken, we shall do.” And when Moses had related the words of the people to the Lord,
9 Και ειπε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, Ιδου, εγω ερχομαι προς σε εν νεφελη πυκνη, δια να ακουση ο λαος οταν λαλησω προς σε, και ετι να πιστευη εις σε παντοτε. Ανηγγειλε δε ο Μωυσης προς τον Κυριον τους λογους του λαου.	9 the Lord said to him: “Soon now, I will come to you in the mist of a cloud, so that the people may hear me speaking to you, and so that they may believe you continuously.” Therefore, Moses reported the words of the people to the Lord,
10 Και ειπε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, Υπαγε προς τον λαον και αγιασον αυτους σημερον και αυριον, και ας πλυνωσι τα ιματια αυτων?	10 who said to him: “Go to the people, and sanctify them today, and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments.
11 και ας ηναι ετοιμοι εις την ημεραν την τριτην? διοτι εν τη ημερα τη τριτη θελει καταβη ο Κυριος επι το ορος Σινα ενωπιον παντος του λαου?	11 And let them be prepared on the third day. For on the third day, the Lord will descend, in the sight of all the people, over Mount Sinai.
12 και θελεις βαλει εις τον λαον ορια κυκλοθεν, λεγων, Προσεχετε εις εαυτους μη αναβητε εις το ορος η εγγισητε εις τα ακρα αυτου? οστις εγγιση το ορος, θελει εξαπαντος θανατωθη?	12 And you will establish limits for the people all around, and you will say to them: ‘Take care not to ascend to the mountain, and that you do not touch its parts. All who touch the mountain, shall die a death.’
13 δεν θελει εγγισει εις αυτον χειρ, διοτι με λιθους θελει λιθοβοληθη η με βελη θελει κατατοξευθη? ειτε ζωον ειναι ειτε ανθρωπος, δεν θελει ζησει. Οταν η σαλπιγξ ηχηση, τοτε θελουσιν αναβη επι το ορος.	13 Hands shall not touch him, but he shall be crushed with stones, or he shall be pierced through with darts. Whether it be a beast or a man, he shall not live. For when the trumpet begins to sound, perhaps they might go up toward the mountain.”
14 Και κατεβη ο Μωυσης απο του ορους προς τον λαον και ηγιασε τον λαον? και επλυναν τα ιματια αυτων.	14 And Moses came down from the mountain to the people, and he sanctified them. And when they had washed their garments,
15 Και ειπε προς τον λαον, Γινεσθε ετοιμοι δια την ημεραν την τριτην? μη πλησιασητε εις γυναικα.	15 he said to them, “Be prepared on the third day, and do not draw near to your wives.”
16 Και εν τη ημερα τη τριτη το πρωι εγειναν βρονται και αστραπαι, και νεφελη πυκνη ητο επι του ορους, και φωνη σαλπιγγος δυνατη σφοδρα? και ετρεμε πας ο λαος ο εν τω στρατοπεδω.	16 And now, the third day arrived and the morning dawned. And behold, thunders began to be heard, and also lightning flashed, and a very dense cloud covered the mountain, and the noise of the trumpet resounded vehemently. And the people who were in the camp were fearful.
17 Τοτε εξηγαγεν ο Μωυσης τον λαον εκ του στρατοπεδου εις την συναντησιν του Θεου? και εσταθησαν υπο το ορος.	17 And when Moses had led them out to meet God, from the place of the camp, they stood at the base of the mountain.
18 Το δε ορος Σινα ητο ολον καπνος, διοτι κατεβη ο Κυριος εν πυρι επ' αυτο? ανεβαινε δε ο καπνος αυτου ως καπνος καμινου και ολον το ορος εσειετο σφοδρα.	18 Then all of Mount Sinai was smoking. For the Lord had descended over it with fire, and smoke ascended from it, as from a furnace. And the entire mountain was terrible.
19 Και οτε η φωνη της σαλπιγγος προεβαινεν αυξανομενη σφοδρα, ο Μωυσης ελαλει και ο Θεος απεκρινετο προς αυτον μετα φωνης.	19 And the sound of the trumpet gradually increased to be louder, and extended to be longer. Moses was speaking, and God was answering him.
20 Και κατεβη ο Κυριος επι το ορος Σινα, επι την κορυφην του ορους? και εκαλεσε Κυριος τον Μωυσην επι την κορυφην του ορους, και ανεβη ο Μωυσης.	20 And the Lord descended over Mount Sinai, to the very top of the mountain, and he called Moses to its summit. And when he had ascended there,
21 Και ειπε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, Καταβας, διαμαρτυρηθητι προς τον λαον, μηποτε υπερβωσι τα ορια και αναβωσι προς τον Κυριον δια να περιεργασθωσι και πεσωσι πολλοι εξ αυτων?	21 he said to him: “Descend, and call the people to witness, lest they might be willing to transgress the limits, so as to see the Lord, and a very great multitude of them might perish.
22 και οι ιερεις δε οι πλησιαζοντες προς τον Κυριον ας αγιασθωσι, δια να μη εξορμηση ο Κυριος επ' αυτους.	22 Likewise, the priests who approach toward the Lord, let them be sanctified, lest he strike them down.”
23 Και ειπεν ο Μωυσης προς τον Κυριον, Ο λαος δεν δυναται να αναβη εις το ορος Σινα? διοτι συ προσεταξας εις ημας, λεγων, Βαλε ορια κυκλοθεν του ορους και αγιασον αυτο.	23 And Moses said to the Lord: “The people are not able to ascend to Mount Sinai. For you testified, and you commanded, saying: ‘Set limits around the mountain, and sanctify it.’ ”
24 Και ειπε Κυριος προς αυτον, Υπαγε, καταβα? επειτα θελεις αναβη, συ και ο Ααρων μετα σου? οι ιερεις ομως και ο λαος ας μη υπερβωσι τα ορια δια να αναβωσι προς τον Κυριον, δια να μη εξορμηση επ' αυτους.	24 And the Lord said to him, “Go, descend. And you shall ascend, and Aaron with you. But let not the priests or the people transgress the limits, nor ascend to the Lord, lest perhaps he may put them to death.”
25 Και κατεβη ο Μωυσης προς τον λαον και ωμιλησε προς αυτους.	25 And Moses descended to the people, and he explained everything to them.
