Exodo 19
|
| In the third month after the children of Israel went out from Egypt, on the same day, they came into the waste land of Sinai. | Al mes tercero de la salida de los hijos de Israel de la tierra de Egipto, en aquel día vinieron al desierto de Sinaí. |
| And when they had gone away from Rephidim and had come into the waste land of Sinai, they put up their tents in the waste land before the mountain: there Israel put up its tents. | Porque partieron de Rephidim, y llegaron al desierto de Sinaí, y asentaron en el desierto; y acampó allí Israel delante del monte. |
| And Moses went up to God, and the voice of the Lord came to him from the mountain, saying, Say to the family of Jacob, and give word to the children of Israel: | Y Moisés subió á Dios; y Jehová lo llamó desde el monte, diciendo: Así dirás á la casa de Jacob, y denunciarás á los hijos de Israel: |
| You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I took you, as on eagles' wings, guiding you to myself. | Vosotros visteis lo que hice á los Egipcios, y cómo os tomé sobre alas de águilas, y os he traído á mí. |
| If now you will truly give ear to my voice and keep my agreement, you will be my special property out of all the peoples: for all the earth is mine: | Ahora pues, si diereis oído á mi voz, y guardareis mi pacto, vosotros seréis mi especial tesoro sobre todos los pueblos; porque mía es toda la tierra. |
| And you will be a kingdom of priests to me, and a holy nation. These are the words which you are to say to the children of Israel. | Y vosotros seréis mi reino de sacerdotes, y gente santa. Estas son las palabras que dirás á los hijos de Israel. |
| And Moses came and sent for the chiefs of the people and put before them all these words which the Lord had given him orders to say. | Entonces vino Moisés, y llamó á los ancianos del pueblo, y propuso en presencia de ellos todas estas palabras que Jehová le había mandado. |
| And all the people, answering together, said, Whatever the Lord has said we will do. And Moses took back to the Lord the words of the people. | Y todo el pueblo respondió á una, y dijeron: Todo lo que Jehová ha dicho haremos. Y Moisés refirió las palabras del pueblo á Jehová. |
| And the Lord said to Moses, See, I will come to you in a thick cloud, so that what I say to you may come to the ears of the people and they may have belief in you for ever. And Moses gave the Lord word of what the people had said. | Y Jehová dijo á Moisés: He aquí, yo vengo á ti en una nube espesa, para que el pueblo oiga mientras yo hablo contigo, y también para que te crean para siempre. Y Moisés denunció las palabras del pueblo á Jehová. |
| And the Lord said to Moses, Go to the people and make them holy today and tomorrow, and let their clothing be washed. | Y Jehová dijo á Moisés: Ve al pueblo, y santifícalos hoy y mañana, y laven sus vestidos; |
| And by the third day let them be ready: for on the third day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai, before the eyes of all the people. | Y estén apercibidos para el día tercero, porque al tercer día Jehová descenderá, á ojos de todo el pueblo, sobre el monte de Sinaí. |
| And let limits be marked out for the people round the mountain, and say to them, Take care not to go up the mountain or near the sides of it: whoever puts his foot on the mountain will certainly come to his death: | Y señalarás término al pueblo en derredor, diciendo: Guardaos, no subáis al monte, ni toquéis á su término: cualquiera que tocare el monte, de seguro morirá: |
| He is not to be touched by a hand, but is to be stoned or have an arrow put through him; man or beast, he is to be put to death: at the long sounding of a horn they may come up to the mountain. | No le tocará mano, mas será apedreado ó asaeteado; sea animal ó sea hombre, no vivirá. En habiendo sonado largamente la bocina, subirán al monte. |
| Then Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and made the people holy; and their clothing was washed. | Y descendió Moisés del monte al pueblo, y santificó al pueblo; y lavaron sus vestidos. |
| And he said to the people, Be ready by the third day: do not come near a woman. | Y dijo al pueblo: Estad apercibidos para el tercer día; no lleguéis á mujer. |
| And when morning came on the third day, there were thunders and flames and a thick cloud on the mountain, and a horn sounding very loud; and all the people in the tents were shaking with fear. | Y aconteció al tercer día cuando vino la mañana, que vinieron truenos y relámpagos, y espesa nube sobre el monte, y sonido de bocina muy fuerte; y estremecióse todo el pueblo que estaba en el real. |
| And Moses made the people come out of their tents and take their places before God; and they came to the foot of the mountain, | Y Moisés sacó del real al pueblo á recibir á Dios; y pusiéronse á lo bajo del monte. |
| And all the mountain of Sinai was smoking, for the Lord had come down on it in fire: and the smoke of it went up like the smoke of a great burning; and all the mountain was shaking. | Y todo el monte de Sinaí humeaba, porque Jehová había descendido sobre él en fuego: y el humo de él subía como el humo de un horno, y todo el monte se estremeció en gran manera. |
| And when the sound of the horn became louder and louder, Moses' words were answered by the voice of God. | Y el sonido de la bocina iba esforzándose en extremo: Moisés hablaba, y Dios le respondía en voz. |
| Then the Lord came down on to Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and the Lord sent for Moses to come up to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up. | Y descendió Jehová sobre el monte de Sinaí, sobre la cumbre del monte: y llamó Jehová á Moisés á la cumbre del monte, y Moisés subió. |
| And the Lord said to Moses, Go down and give the people orders to keep back, for fear that a great number of them, forcing their way through to see the Lord, may come to destruction. | Y Jehová dijo á Moisés: Desciende, requiere al pueblo que no traspasen el término por ver á Jehová, porque caerá multitud de ellos. |
| And let the priests who come near to the Lord make themselves holy, for fear that the Lord may come on them suddenly. | Y también los sacerdotes que se llegan á Jehová, se santifiquen, porque Jehová no haga en ellos estrago. |
| And Moses said to the Lord, The people will not be able to come up the mountain, for you gave us orders to put limits round the mountain, marking it out and making it holy. | Y Moisés dijo á Jehová: El pueblo no podrá subir al monte de Sinaí, porque tú nos has requerido diciendo: Señala términos al monte, y santifícalo. |
| And the Lord said to him, Go down, and you and Aaron may come up; but let not the priests and the people make their way through to the Lord, or he will come on them suddenly. | Y Jehová le dijo: Ve, desciende, y subirás tú, y Aarón contigo: mas los sacerdotes y el pueblo no traspasen el término por subir á Jehová, porque no haga en ellos estrago. |
| So Moses went down to the people and said this to them. | Entonces Moisés descendió al pueblo y habló con ellos. |
