EX-34:1 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.
EX-34:2 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.
EX-34:3 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.
EX-34:4 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.
EX-34:5 And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him
there, and
proclaimed the name of the LORD.
EX-34:6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The
LORD, The LORD
God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in
goodness and truth,
EX-34:7 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].
EX-34:8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the
earth, and
worshipped.
EX-34:9 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.
EX-34:10 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.
EX-34:11 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.
EX-34:12 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:
EX-34:13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images,
and cut down
their groves:
EX-34:14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD,
whose name [is]
Jealous, [is] a jealous God:
EX-34:15 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;
EX-34:16 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.
EX-34:17 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
EX-34:18 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.
EX-34:19 All that openeth the matrix [is] mine; and every
firstling among thy
cattle, [whether] ox or sheep, [that is male].
EX-34:20 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.
EX-34:21 Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou
shalt rest: in
earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
EX-34:22 And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the
firstfruits of
wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.
EX-34:23 Thrice in the year shall all your menchildren appear
before the Lord
GOD, the God of Israel.
EX-34:24 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.
EX-34:25 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.
EX-34:26 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.
EX-34:27 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.
EX-34:28 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.
EX-34:29 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.
EX-34:30 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.
EX-34:31 And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the
rulers of the
congregation returned unto him: and Moses talked with them.
EX-34:32 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.
EX-34:33 And [till] Moses had done speaking with them, he put a
veil on his
face.
EX-34:34 But when Moses went in before the LORD 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.
EX-34:35 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.
