12 And Moses said to YAHUVEH, Behold, You are saying to me, Cause this people to
go up. And You, You have not told me whom You will send with me. And yet You
have said, I know you by name, and also you have found favor in My eyes.3 13 And now, if I have found favor in Your eyes, please make me see Your ways,
and let me know You, so that I may find favor in Your eyes; and consider that
this nation is Your people. 14 And He said, My presence4 will go with you, and I will give you rest. 15 And they said to Him, If Your presence does not go, do not cause us to go up
from here. 16 And now by what can it be known that I and Your people have found favor in
Your eyes? Is it not in Your going with us? And we are distinguished, I and Your
people, from all the nations which are on the face of the earth? 17 And YAHUVEH said to Moses, This thing which you have spoken I will do. For
you have found favor in My eyes, and I know you by name. 18 And he said, I pray, let me see Your glory. (Luk 9:23-35) 19 And He said, I will cause all My goodness to pass before your face. And I
will call out the name of YAHUVEH before your face. And I will be gracious to
whom I will be gracious, and I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy. 20 And He said, You are not able to see My face; for no man can see Me and live. 21 And YAHUVEH said, Behold, a place by Me! And you shall stand on a rock. 22 And as My glory is passing it will be that I will put you in a cleft of the
rock; and I will cover My hand over you during My passing. 23 And I will remove My hand, and you shall see My back1; but My face cannot be
seen.
Chapter 34
1 And YAHUVEH said to Moses, Cut out for yourself two tablets of stone, like the
former. And I will write on the tablets the words which were on the former
tablet, which you broke. 2 And be prepared in the morning, and go up in the morning to Mount Sinai. And
place yourself there by Me, on the top of the mountain. 3 And a man shall not go up with you. And also let no man be seen on all the
mountain. Also do not allow the flocks and the herds to feed before that
mountain. 4 And he cut out two tablets of stone like the former. And Moses rose early in
the morning and went up into Mount Sinai, as YAHUVEH had commanded him. And he
took in his hand the two tablets of stone. 5 And YAHUVEH came down in the cloud. And he placed himself there with Him, and
he called on the name of YAHUVEH. 6 And YAHUVEH passed by before his face and called out: YAHUVEH! YAHUVEH ELOHIM!
Merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and great in goodness and truth, 7 keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and
not leaving entirely unpunished, visiting the iniquity of fathers on sons, and
on sons of sons, to the third and to the fourth generation. 8 And Moses hurried and bowed to the earth and worshiped. 9 And he said, If now I have found favor in Your eyes, O YAHUVEH, please let my
Adonai go in our midst, for it is a stiffnecked people; and You forgive our
iniquity and our sin, and take us as a possession. 10 And He said, Behold, I am cutting a covenant;2 I will do wonderful things
before all your people which not have been done in all the earth, and among all
nations. And all the people in whose midst you are shall see the work of
YAHUVEH, for that which I am about to do is awesome. 11 Take heed for yourself what I am commanding you today. Behold, I am about to
drive out from before your face the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite,
and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite. 12 Take heed to yourself, that you not cut a covenant with the people of the
land to which you are going in, that it not be a snare in your midst. 13 But you shall cut down their altars, break their pillars, and you shall cut
off their Asherahs. 14 For you shall not bow to another elohim, for YAHUVEH whose Name is Jealous,
He is a jealous ELOHIM; 15 that you not cut a covenant with the people of the land, and they fornicate
with their Elohims, and they call to you, and you eat from his sacrifice; 16 and you take from their daughters for your sons, and their daughters
fornicate with their elohims, and they lead your sons to fornicate with their
elohims. 17 You shall not make for yourself casted elohims. 18 You shall keep the Feast of Unleavened; seven days you shall eat unleavened
things, which I commanded you, at the time appointed, the month of Abib; for in
the month of Abib you went out from Egypt. 19 Every one opening the womb is Mine, and all your male livestock, a firstling
of ox or sheep, 20 and a firstling of a donkey, you shall redeem with a lamb. And if you do not
redeem, you shall break its neck. You shall redeem every firstborn of your sons,
and they shall not be seen before My face empty. 21 You may work six days, and on the seventh day you shall rest. In plowing time
and in harvest you shall rest. 22 And you shall observe a Feast of Weeks for yourself, the first-fruits of the
harvest of wheat; also the Feast of Ingathering after the turn of the year3. 23 Three times in the year every male of yours shall be seen before the face of
Adonai YAHUVEH, the ELOHIM of Israel. 24 For I will expel nations from before your face and will make broad your
territory; and no one shall covet your land, as you go up to appear before
YAHUVEH your ELOHIM three times in the year. 25 You shall not slaughter the blood of my sacrifice with leaven, nor shall the
sacrifice of the Passover Feast pass the night until morning. 26 You shall bring the first of the first-fruits of your ground to the house of
YAHUVEH your ELOHIM. You shall not boil a kid in the milk of its mother.
