¹ And the LORD said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou brakest.

² And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me in the top of the mount.

³ And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.

⁴ And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.

⁵ And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD.

⁶ And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,

⁷ Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.

⁸ And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.

⁹ And he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O LORD, let my LORD, I pray thee, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance.

¹⁰ And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.

¹¹ Observe thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

¹² Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:

¹³ But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:

¹⁴ For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:

¹⁵ Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;

¹⁶ And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.

¹⁷ Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.

¹⁸ The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.

¹⁹ All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male.

²⁰ But the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.

²¹ Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.

²² And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.

²³ Thrice in the year shall all your men children appear before the LORD God, the God of Israel.

²⁴ For I will cast out the nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou shalt go up to appear before the LORD thy God thrice in the year.

²⁵ Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.

²⁶ The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

²⁷ And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.

²⁸ And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.

²⁹ And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him.

³⁰ And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him.

³¹ And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moses talked with them.

³² And afterward all the children of Israel came nigh: and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had spoken with him in mount Sinai.

³³ And till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face.

³⁴ But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak with him, he took the vail off, until he came out. And he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded.

³⁵ And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the vail upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.

¹ And the LORD ^H3068 said ^H559 unto Moses, ^H4872 Hew ^H6458 thee two ^H8147 tables ^H3871 of stone ^H68 like unto the first: ^H7223 and I will write ^H3789 upon these tables ^H3871 the words ^H1697 that were in the first ^H7223 tables, ^H3871 which thou brakest. ^H7665

² And be ready ^H3559 in the morning, ^H1242 and come up ^H5927 in the morning ^H1242 unto mount ^H2022 Sinai, ^H5514 and present ^H5324 thyself there to me in the top ^H7218 of the mount. ^H2022

³ And no man ^H376 shall come up ^H5927 with thee, neither ^H408 let any man ^H376 be seen ^H7200 throughout all the mount; ^H2022 neither let the flocks ^H6629 nor herds ^H1241 feed ^H7462 before ^H4136 that mount. ^H2022

⁴ And he hewed ^H6458 two ^H8147 tables ^H3871 of stone ^H68 like unto the first; ^H7223 and Moses ^H4872 rose up early ^H7925 in the morning, ^H1242 and went up ^H5927 unto mount ^H2022 Sinai, ^H5514 as the LORD ^H3068 had commanded ^H6680 him, and took ^H3947 in his hand ^H3027 the two ^H8147 tables ^H3871 of stone. ^H68

⁵ And the LORD ^H3068 descended ^H3381 in the cloud, ^H6051 and stood ^H3320 with him there, and proclaimed ^H7121 the name ^H8034 of the LORD. ^H3068

⁶ And the LORD ^H3068 passed by ^H5674 before him, ^H6440 and proclaimed, ^H7121 The LORD, ^H3068 The LORD ^H3068 God, ^H410 merciful ^H7349 and gracious, ^H2587 longsuffering, ^{H750 H639} and abundant ^H7227 in goodness ^H2617 and truth, ^H571

⁷ Keeping ^H5341 mercy ^H2617 for thousands, ^H505 forgiving ^H5375 iniquity ^H5771 and transgression ^H6588 and sin, ^H2403 and that will by no means ^H5352 clear ^H5352 the guilty; visiting ^H6485 the iniquity ^H5771 of the fathers ^H1 upon the children, ^H1121 and upon the children's ^H1121 children, unto the third ^H8029 and to the fourth ^H7256 generation.

⁸ And Moses ^H4872 made haste, ^H4116 and bowed his head ^H6915 toward the earth, ^H776 and worshipped. ^H7812

⁹ And he said, ^H559 If now I have found ^H4672 grace ^H2580 in thy sight, ^H5869 O Lord, ^H136 let my Lord, ^H136 I pray thee, go ^H3212 among ^H7130 us; for it is a stiffnecked ^{H7186 H6203} people; ^H5971 and pardon ^H5545 our iniquity ^H5771 and our sin, ^H2403 and take us for thine inheritance. ^H5157

¹⁰ And he said, ^H559 Behold, I make ^H3772 a covenant: ^H1285 before all thy people ^H5971 I will do ^H6213 marvels, ^H6381 such as have not been done ^H1254 in all the earth, ^H776 nor in any nation: ^H1471 and all the people ^H5971 among ^H7130 which thou art shall see ^H7200 the work ^H4639 of the LORD: ^H3068 for it is a terrible thing ^H3372 that I will do ^H6213 with thee.

¹¹ Observe ^H8104 thou that which I command ^H6680 thee this day: ^H3117 behold, I drive out ^H1644 before ^H6440 thee the Amorite, ^H567 and the Canaanite, ^H3669 and the Hittite, ^H2850 and the Perizzite, ^H6522 and the Hivite, ^H2340 and the Jebusite. ^H2983

¹² Take heed ^H8104 to thyself, lest thou make ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with the inhabitants ^H3427 of the land ^H776 whither thou goest, ^H935 lest it be for a snare ^H4170 in the midst ^H7130 of thee:

¹³ But ye shall destroy ^H5422 their altars, ^H4196 break ^H7665 their images, ^H4676 and cut down ^H3772 their groves: ^H842

¹⁴ For thou shalt worship ^H7812 no other ^H312 god: ^H410 for the LORD, ^H3068 whose name ^H8034 is Jealous, ^H7067 is a jealous ^H7067 God: ^H410

¹⁵ Lest thou make ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with the inhabitants ^H3427 of the land, ^H776 and they go a whoring ^H2181 after ^H310 their gods, ^H430 and do sacrifice ^H2076 unto their gods, ^H430 and one call ^H7121 thee, and thou eat ^H398 of his sacrifice; ^H2077

¹⁶ And thou take ^H3947 of their daughters ^H1323 unto thy sons, ^H1121 and their daughters ^H1323 go a whoring ^H2181 after ^H310 their gods, ^H430 and make ^H2181 thy sons ^H1121 go a whoring ^H2181 after ^H310 their gods. ^H430

¹⁷ Thou shalt make ^H6213 thee no molten ^H4541 gods. ^H430

¹⁸ The feast ^H2282 of unleavened bread ^H4682 shalt thou keep. ^H8104 Seven ^H7651 days ^H3117 thou shalt eat ^H398 unleavened bread, ^H4682 as I commanded ^H6680 thee, in the time ^H4150 of the month ^H2320 Abib: ^H24 for in the month ^H2320 Abib ^H24 thou camest out ^H3318 from Egypt. ^H4714

¹⁹ All that openeth ^H6363 the matrix ^H7358 is mine; and every firstling ^H6363 among thy cattle, ^H4735 whether ox ^H7794 or sheep, ^H7716 that is male ^H2142.

²⁰ But the firstling ^H6363 of an ass ^H2543 thou shalt redeem ^H6299 with a lamb: ^H7716 and if thou redeem ^H6299 him not, then shalt thou break his neck. ^H6202 All the firstborn ^H1060 of thy sons ^H1121 thou shalt redeem. ^H6299 And none shall appear ^H7200 before ^H6440 me empty. ^H7387

²¹ Six ^H8337 days ^H3117 thou shalt work, ^H5647 but on the seventh ^H7637 day ^H3117 thou shalt rest: ^H7673 in earing time ^H2758 and in harvest ^H7105 thou shalt rest. ^H7673

²² And thou shalt observe ^H6213 the feast ^H2282 of weeks, ^H7620 of the firstfruits ^H1061 of wheat ^H2406 harvest, ^H7105 and the feast ^H2282 of ingathering ^H614 at the year's ^H8141 end. ^H8622

²³ Thrice ^{H6471 H7969} in the year ^H8141 shall all your men children ^H2138 appear ^H7200 before ^H6440 the Lord ^H113 GOD, ^H3068 the God ^H430 of Israel. ^H3478

²⁴ For I will cast out ^H3423 the nations ^H1471 before ^H6440 thee, and enlarge ^H7337 thy borders: ^H1366 neither shall any man ^H376 desire ^H2530 thy land, ^H776 when thou shalt go up ^H5927 to appear ^H7200 before ^H6440 the LORD ^H3068 thy God ^H430 thrice ^{H6471 H7969} in the year. ^H8141

²⁵ Thou shalt not offer ^H7819 the blood ^H1818 of my sacrifice ^H2077 with leaven; ^H2557 neither shall the sacrifice ^H2077 of the feast ^H2282 of the passover ^H6453 be left ^H3885 unto the morning. ^H1242

²⁶ The first ^H7225 of the firstfruits ^H1061 of thy land ^H127 thou shalt bring ^H935 unto the house ^H1004 of the LORD ^H3068 thy God. ^H430 Thou shalt not seethe ^H1310 a kid ^H1423 in his mother's ^H517 milk. ^H2461

²⁷ And the LORD ^H3068 said ^H559 unto Moses, ^H4872 Write ^H3789 thou these words: ^H1697 for after the tenor ^H6310 of these words ^H1697 I have made ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with thee and with Israel. ^H3478

²⁸ And he was there with the LORD ^H3068 forty ^H705 days ^H3117 and forty ^H705 nights; ^H3915 he did neither eat ^H398 bread, ^H3899 nor drink ^H8354 water. ^H4325 And he wrote ^H3789 upon the tables ^H3871 the words ^H1697 of the covenant, ^H1285 the ten ^H6235 commandments. ^H1697

²⁹ And it came to pass, when Moses ^H4872 came down ^H3381 from mount ^H2022 Sinai ^H5514 with the two ^H8147 tables ^H3871 of testimony ^H5715 in Moses' ^H4872 hand, ^H3027 when he came down ^H3381 from the mount, ^H2022 that Moses ^H4872 wist ^H3045 not that the skin ^H5785 of his face ^H6440 shone ^H7160 while he talked ^H1696 with him.

³⁰ And when Aaron ^H175 and all the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 saw ^H7200 Moses, ^H4872 behold, the skin ^H5785 of his face ^H6440 shone; ^H7160 and they were afraid ^H3372 to come nigh ^H5066 him.

³¹ And Moses ^H4872 called ^H7121 unto them; and Aaron ^H175 and all the rulers ^H5387 of the congregation ^H5712 returned ^H7725 unto him: and Moses ^H4872 talked ^H1696 with them.

³² And afterward ^H310 all the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 came nigh: ^H5066 and he gave them in commandment ^H6680 all that the LORD ^H3068 had spoken ^H1696 with him in mount ^H2022 Sinai. ^H5514

³³ And till Moses ^H4872 had done ^H3615 speaking ^H1696 with them, he put ^H5414 a vail ^H4533 on his face. ^H6440

³⁴ But when Moses ^H4872 went in ^H935 before ^H6440 the LORD ^H3068 to speak ^H1696 with him, he took ^H5493 the vail ^H4533 off, ^H5493 until he came out. ^H3318 And he came out, ^H3318 and spake ^H1696 unto the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 that which he was commanded. ^H6680

³⁵ And the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 saw ^H7200 the face ^H6440 of Moses, ^H4872 that the skin ^H5785 of Moses' ^H4872 face ^H6440 shone: ^H7160 and Moses ^H4872 put ^H7725 the vail ^H4533 upon his face ^H6440 again, ^H7725 until he went ^H935 in to speak ^H1696 with him.

¹ And Jehovah said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon the tables the words that were on the first tables, which thou brakest.

² And be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me on the top of the mount.

³ And no man shall come up with thee; neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.

⁴ And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as Jehovah had commanded him, and took in his hand two tables of stone.

⁵ And Jehovah descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of Jehovah.

⁶ And Jehovah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth,

⁷ keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear `the guilty', visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.

⁸ And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.

⁹ And he said, If now I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, let the Lord, I pray thee, go in the midst of us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance.

¹⁰ And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been wrought in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of Jehovah; for it is a terrible thing that I do with thee.

¹¹ Observe thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

¹² Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:

¹³ but ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and ye shall cut down their Asherim;

¹⁴ for thou shalt worship no other god: for Jehovah, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:

¹⁵ lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they play the harlot after their gods, and sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee and thou eat of his sacrifice;

¹⁶ and thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters play the harlot after their gods, and make thy sons play the harlot after their gods.

¹⁷ Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.

¹⁸ The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.

¹⁹ All that openeth the womb is mine; and all thy cattle that is male, the firstlings of cow and sheep.

²⁰ And the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break its neck. All the first-born of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.

²¹ Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in plowing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.

²² And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, `even' of the first-fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.

²³ Three times in the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord Jehovah, the God of Israel.

²⁴ For I will cast out nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou goest up to appear before Jehovah thy God three times in the year.

²⁵ Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.

²⁶ The first of the first-fruits of thy ground thou shalt bring unto the house of Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.

²⁷ And Jehovah said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.

²⁸ And he was there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.

²⁹ And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of the testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses knew not that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him.

³⁰ And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him.

³¹ And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moses spake to them.

³² And afterward all the children of Israel came nigh: and he gave them in commandment all that Jehovah had spoken with him in mount Sinai.

³³ And when Moses had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.

³⁴ But when Moses went in before Jehovah to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded.

³⁵ And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the veil upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.

¹ And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Hew for thyself two tables of stone like the first, and I have written on the tables the words which were on the first tables which thou hast broken;

² and be prepared at morning, and thou hast come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and hast stood before Me there, on the top of the mount,

³ and no man cometh up with thee, and also no man is seen in all the mount, also the flock and the herd do not feed over-against that mount.'

⁴ And he heweth two tables of stone like the first, and Moses riseth early in the morning, and goeth up unto mount Sinai, as Jehovah commanded him, and he taketh in his hand two tables of stone.

⁵ And Jehovah cometh down in a cloud, and stationeth Himself with him there, and calleth in the Name of Jehovah,

⁶ and Jehovah passeth over before his face, and calleth: `Jehovah, Jehovah God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth,

⁷ keeping kindness for thousands, taking away iniquity, and transgression, and sin, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on children's children, on a third `generation', and on a fourth.'

⁸ And Moses hasteth, and boweth to the earth, and doth obeisance,

⁹ and saith, `If, I pray Thee, I have found grace in Thine eyes, O my Lord, let my Lord, I pray Thee, go in our midst (for it `is' a stiff-necked people), and thou hast forgiven our iniquity and our sin, and hast inherited us.'

¹⁰ And He saith, `Lo, I am making a covenant: before all thy people I do wonders, which have not been done in all the earth, or in any nation, and all the people in whose midst thou `art' have seen the work of Jehovah, for it `is' fearful that which I am doing with thee.

¹¹ `Observe for thyself that which I am commanding thee to-day: lo, I am casting out from before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite;

¹² take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitant of the land into which thou art going, lest it become a snare in thy midst;

¹³ for their altars ye break down, and their standing pillars ye shiver, and its shrines ye cut down;

¹⁴ for ye do not bow yourselves to another god -- for Jehovah, whose name `is' Zealous, is a zealous God.

¹⁵ `Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitant of the land, and they have gone a-whoring after their gods, and have sacrificed to their gods, and `one' hath called to thee, and thou hast eaten of his sacrifice,

¹⁶ and thou hast taken of their daughters to thy sons, and their daughters have gone a-whoring after their gods, and have caused thy sons to go a-whoring after their gods;

¹⁷ a molten god thou dost not make to thyself.

¹⁸ `The feast of unleavened things thou dost keep; seven days thou dost eat unleavened things, as I have commanded thee, at an appointed time, the month of Abib: for in the month of Abib thou didst come out from Egypt.

¹⁹ `All opening a womb `are' Mine, and every firstling of thy cattle born a male, ox or sheep;

²⁰ and the firstling of an ass thou dost ransom with a lamb; and if thou dost not ransom, then thou hast beheaded it; every first-born of thy sons thou dost ransom, and they do not appear before Me empty.

²¹ `Six days thou dost work, and on the seventh day thou dost rest; in ploughing-time and in harvest thou dost rest.

²² `And a feast of weeks thou dost observe for thyself; first-fruits of wheat-harvest; and the feast of in-gathering, at the revolution of the year.

²³ `Three times in a year do all thy males appear before the Lord Jehovah, God of Israel;

²⁴ for I dispossess nations from before thee, and have enlarged thy border, and no man doth desire thy land in thy going up to appear before Jehovah thy God three times in a year.

²⁵ `Thou dost not slaughter with a fermented thing the blood of My sacrifice; and the sacrifice of the feast of the passover doth not remain till morning:

²⁶ the first of the first-fruits of the land thou dost bring into the house of Jehovah thy God; thou dost not boil a kid in its mother's milk.'

²⁷ And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Write for thyself these words, for, according to the tenor of these words I have made with thee a covenant, and with Israel.'

²⁸ And he is there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights; bread he hath not eaten, and water he hath not drunk; and he writeth on the tables the matters of the covenant -- the ten matters.

²⁹ And it cometh to pass, when Moses is coming down from mount Sinai (and the two tables of the testimony `are' in the hand of Moses in his coming down from the mount), that Moses hath not known that the skin of his face hath shone in His speaking with him,

³⁰ and Aaron seeth -- all the sons of Israel also -- Moses, and lo, the skin of his face hath shone, and they are afraid of coming nigh unto him.

³¹ And Moses calleth unto them, and Aaron and all the princes in the company return unto him, and Moses speaketh unto them;

³² and afterwards have all the sons of Israel come nigh, and he chargeth them with all that Jehovah hath spoken with him in mount Sinai.

³³ And Moses finisheth speaking with them, and putteth on his face a vail;

³⁴ and in the going in of Moses before Jehovah to speak with Him, he turneth aside the vail until his coming out; and he hath come out and hath spoken unto the sons of Israel that which he is commanded;

³⁵ and the sons of Israel have seen the face of Moses that the skin of the face of Moses hath shone, and Moses hath put back the vail on his face until his going in to speak with Him.

¹ And Jehovah said to Moses, Hew for thyself two tables of stone like the first; and I will write upon the tables the words that were upon the first tables, which thou hast broken.

² And be ready for the morning, and go up in the morning to mount Sinai, and stand there before me on the top of the mountain.

³ And let no man go up with thee, neither shall any man be seen on all the mountain; neither shall sheep and oxen feed in front of that mountain.

⁴ And he hewed two tables of stone like the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning and went up to mount Sinai, as Jehovah had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.

⁵ And Jehovah came down in the cloud, and stood beside him there, and proclaimed the name of Jehovah.

⁶ And Jehovah passed by before his face, and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah ùGod merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in goodness and truth,

⁷ keeping mercy unto thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but by no means clearing [the guilty]; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth [generation].

⁸ And Moses made haste, and bowed his head to the earth and worshipped,

⁹ and said, If indeed I have found grace in thine eyes, Lord, let the Lord, I pray thee, go in our midst; for it is a stiff-necked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for an inheritance!

¹⁰ And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels that have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people in the midst of which thou [art] shall see the work of Jehovah; for a terrible thing it shall be that I will do with thee.

¹¹ Observe what I command thee this day: behold, I will drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

¹² Take heed to thyself, that thou make no covenant with the inhabitants of the land to which thou shalt come, lest it be a snare in the midst of thee;

¹³ but ye shall demolish their altars, shatter their statues, and hew down their Asherahs.

¹⁴ For thou shalt worship no other ùGod; for Jehovah -- Jealous is his name -- is a jealous ùGod;

¹⁵ lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and then, when they go a whoring after their gods, and sacrifice unto their gods, thou be invited, and eat of their sacrifice,

¹⁶ and thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.

¹⁷ -- Thou shalt make thyself no molten gods.

¹⁸ -- The feast of the unleavened bread shalt thou keep: seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, as I have commanded thee, at the appointed time of the month Abib; for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.

¹⁹ -- All that openeth the womb [is] mine; and all the cattle that is born a male, the firstling of ox and sheep.

²⁰ But the firstling of an ass thou shalt ransom with a lamb; and if thou ransom [it] not, then shalt thou break its neck. All the first-born of thy sons thou shalt ransom; and none shall appear before me empty.

²¹ -- Six days shalt thou work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest; in ploughing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.

²² -- And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the first-fruits of wheat-harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the turn of the year.

²³ Thrice in the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord Jehovah, the God of Israel.

²⁴ For I will dispossess the nations before thee, and enlarge thy border, and no man shall desire thy land, when thou goest up to appear before the face of Jehovah thy God thrice in the year.

²⁵ -- Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left over night until the morning.

²⁶ -- The first of the first-fruits of thy land shalt thou bring into the house of Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.

²⁷ And Jehovah said to Moses, Write thee these words; for after the tenor of these words have I made a covenant with thee and with Israel.

²⁸ -- And he was there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights; he ate no bread, and drank no water. -- And he wrote on the tables the words of the covenant, the ten words.

²⁹ And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai -- and the two tables of testimony were in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mountain -- that Moses knew not that the skin of his face shone through his talking with him.

³⁰ And Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, and behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him.

³¹ And Moses called to them; and they turned to him, -- Aaron and all the principal men of the assembly; and Moses talked with them.

³² And afterwards, all the children of Israel came near; and he gave them in commandment all that Jehovah had spoken with him on mount Sinai.

³³ And Moses ended speaking with them; and he had put on his face a veil.

³⁴ And when Moses went in before Jehovah to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spoke to the children of Israel what he was commanded.

³⁵ And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone; and Moses put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.

¹ Yahweh said to Moses, "Chisel two stone tablets like the first: and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.

² Be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and present yourself there to me on the top of the mountain.

³ No one shall come up with you; neither let anyone be seen throughout all the mountain; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mountain."

⁴ He chiseled two tablets of stone like the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to Mount Sinai, as Yahweh had commanded him, and took in his hand two stone tablets.

⁵ Yahweh descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of Yahweh.

⁶ Yahweh passed by before him, and proclaimed, "Yahweh! Yahweh, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth,

⁷ keeping loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and disobedience and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the children's children, on the third and on the fourth generation."

⁸ Moses hurried and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshiped.

⁹ He said, "If now I have found favor in your sight, Lord, please let the Lord go in the midst of us; although this is a stiff-necked people; pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance."

¹⁰ He said, "Behold, I make a covenant: before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been worked in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among which you are shall see the work of Yahweh; for it is an awesome thing that I do with you.

¹¹ Observe that which I command you this day. Behold, I drive out before you the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

¹² Be careful, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be for a snare in the midst of you:

¹³ but you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their Asherim;

¹⁴ for you shall worship no other god: for Yahweh, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

¹⁵ Don't make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, lest they play the prostitute after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and one call you and you eat of his sacrifice;

¹⁶ and you take of their daughters to your sons, and their daughters play the prostitute after their gods, and make your sons play the prostitute after their gods.

¹⁷ You shall make no cast idols for yourselves.

¹⁸ "You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out from Egypt.

¹⁹ All that opens the womb is mine; and all your cattle that is male, the firstborn of cow and sheep.

²⁰ The firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb: and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. No one shall appear before me empty.

²¹ Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest.

²² You shall observe the feast of weeks with the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of harvest at the year's end.

²³ Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord Yahweh, the God of Israel.

²⁴ For I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire your land when you go up to appear before Yahweh, your God, three times in the year.

²⁵ "You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the Passover be left to the morning.

²⁶ You shall bring the first of the first fruits of your ground to the house of Yahweh your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother's milk."

²⁷ Yahweh said to Moses, "Write you these words: for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel."

²⁸ He was there with Yahweh forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread, nor drank water. He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.

²⁹ It happened, when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mountain, that Moses didn't know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him.

³⁰ When Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him.

³¹ Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him; and Moses spoke to them.

³² Afterward all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them all of the commandments that Yahweh had spoken with him on Mount Sinai.

³³ When Moses was done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.

³⁴ But when Moses went in before Yahweh to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spoke to the children of Israel that which he was commanded.

³⁵ The children of Israel saw Moses' face, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.

¹ And the Lord said to Moses, Make two other stones like the first two; and I will put on them the words which were on the first stones, which were broken by you.

² And be ready by the morning, and come up on Mount Sinai, and come before me there in the morning, on the top of the mountain.

³ No one is to come up with you, and let no man be seen anywhere on the mountain; let no flocks or herds come near to get their food at its foot.

⁴ So Moses got two stones cut like the first; and early in the morning he went up Mount Sinai, as the Lord had said, with the two stones in his hand.

⁵ And the Lord came down in the cloud and took his place by the side of Moses, and Moses gave worship to the name of the Lord.

⁶ And the Lord went past before his eyes, saying, The Lord, the Lord, a God full of pity and grace, slow to wrath and great in mercy and faith;

⁷ Having mercy on thousands, overlooking evil and wrongdoing and sin; he will not let wrongdoers go free, but will send punishment on children for the sins of their fathers, and on their children's children to the third and fourth generation.

⁸ Then Moses quickly went down on his face in worship.

⁹ And he said, If now I have grace in your eyes, let the Lord go among us, for this is a stiff-necked people, and give us forgiveness for our wrongdoing and our sin, and take us for your heritage.

¹⁰ And the Lord said, See, this is what I will undertake: before the eyes of your people I will do wonders, such as have not been done in all the earth or in any nation: and all your people will see the work of the Lord, for what I am about to do for you is greatly to be feared.

¹¹ Take care to do the orders which I give you today; I will send out from before you the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite.

¹² But take care, and do not make any agreement with the people of the land where you are going, for it will be a cause of sin to you.

¹³ But their altars are to be overturned and their pillars broken and their images cut down:

¹⁴ For you are to be worshippers of no other god: for the Lord is a God who will not give his honour to another.

¹⁵ So see that you make no agreement with the people of the land, and do not go after their gods, or take part in their offerings, or be guests at their feasts,

¹⁶ Or take their daughters for your sons; for when their daughters give worship before their gods, they will make your sons take part with them.

¹⁷ Make for yourselves no gods of metal.

¹⁸ Keep the feast of unleavened bread; for seven days your food is to be bread without leaven, as I gave you orders, at the regular time in the month Abib; for in that month you came out of Egypt.

¹⁹ Every first male child is mine; the first male birth of your cattle, the first male of every ox and sheep.

²⁰ A lamb may be given in payment for the young of an ass, but if you will not make payment for it, its neck will have to be broken. For all the first of your sons you are to make payment. No one is to come before me without an offering.

²¹ Six days let work be done, but on the seventh day take your rest: at ploughing time and at the grain-cutting you are to have a day for rest.

²² And you are to keep the feast of weeks when you get in the first-fruits of the grain, and the feast at the turn of the year when you take in the produce of your fields.

²³ Three times in the year let all your males come before the Lord, the God of Israel.

²⁴ For I will send out the nations before you and make wide the limits of your land; and no man will make an attempt to take your land while you go up to give worship to the Lord, three times in the year.

²⁵ No leaven is to be offered with the blood of my offering, and the offering of the Passover feast may not be kept till the morning.

²⁶ Take the first-fruits of your land as an offering to the house of the Lord your God. Let not the young goat be cooked in its mother's milk

²⁷ And the Lord said to Moses, Put all these words in writing; for on them is based the agreement which I will make with you.

²⁸ And for forty days and forty nights Moses was there with the Lord, and in that time he had no food or drink. And he put in writing on the stones the words of the agreement, the ten rules of the law.

²⁹ Now when Moses came down from Mount Sinai, with the two stones in his hand, he was not conscious that his face was shining because of his talk with God.

³⁰ But when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, and the shining of his face, they would not come near him for fear.

³¹ Then Moses sent for them; and Aaron, with the chiefs of the people, came to him; and Moses had talk with them.

³² And later, all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them all the orders which the Lord had given him on Mount Sinai.

³³ And at the end of his talk with them, Moses put a veil over his face.

³⁴ But whenever Moses went in before the Lord to have talk with him, he took off the veil till he came out. And whenever he came out he said to the children of Israel what he had been ordered to say;

³⁵ And the children of Israel saw that the face of Moses was shining: so Moses put the veil over his face again till he went to the Lord.
