Êxodo 24

SAGRADA BIBLIA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Deus disse a Moisés: "Sobe para o Senhor, com Aarão, Nadab e Abiú e setenta anciãos de Israel, e prostrai-vos à distância.	1 And 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.
2 Só Moisés se aproximará do Senhor, e não os outros, e o povo não subirá com ele."	2 And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with him.
3 Moisés veio referir ao povo todas as palavras do Senhor, e todas as suas leis; e o povo inteiro respondeu a uma voz: "Faremos tudo o que o Senhor disse."	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.
4 E Moisés escreveu todas as palavras do Senhor. No dia seguinte, de manhã, edificou um altar ao pé da montanha e levantou doze estelas para as doze tribos de Israel.	4 And 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.
5 Enviou jovens dentre os israelitas, os quais ofereceram holocaustos e sacrifícios ao Senhor e imolaram touros em sacrifícios pacíficos.	5 And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD.
6 Moisés tomou a metade do sangue para metê-lo em bacias, e derramou a outra metade sobre o altar.	6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 Tomou o livro da aliança e o leu ao povo, que respondeu: "Faremos tudo o que o Senhor disse e seremos obedientes."	7 And 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.
8 Moisés tomou o sangue para aspergir com ele o povo: "Eis, disse ele, o sangue da aliança que o Senhor fez convosco, conforme tudo o que foi dito."	8 And 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 Moisés subiu, com Aarão, Nadab e Abiú, e setenta anciãos de Israel.	9 Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
10 Eles viram o Deus de Israel. Sob os seus pés havia como um lajeado de safiras transparentes, tão límpido como o próprio céu.	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 Sobre os eleitos dos israelitas, Deus não estendeu a mão. Viram Deus, e depois comeram e beberam.	11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.
12 O Senhor disse a Moisés: "Sobe para mim no monte. Ficarás ali para que eu te dê as tábuas de pedra, a lei e as ordenações que escrevi para sua instrução."	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.
13 Moisés levantou-se com Josué, seu auxiliar, e subiu o monte de Deus.	13 And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God.
14 E disse aos anciãos: "Esperai-nos aqui até que voltemos. Tendes convosco Aarão e Hur. Se alguém tiver um litígio, dirigir-se-á a eles."	14 And 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.
15 Moisés subiu ao monte. A nuvem cobriu o monte	15 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
16 e a glória do Senhor repousou sobre o monte Sinai, que ficou envolvido na nuvem durante seis dias. No sétimo dia, o Senhor chamou Moisés do seio da nuvem.	16 And 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.
17 Aos olhos dos israelitas a glória do Senhor tinha o aspecto de um fogo consumidor sobre o cume do monte.	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 Moisés penetrou na nuvem e subiu a montanha. Ficou ali quarenta dias e quarenta noites.	18 And 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.
