EX-24:1  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.

EX-24:2  And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall

not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with him.

EX-24:3  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.

EX-24:4  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.

EX-24:5  And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which

offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen

unto

the LORD.

EX-24:6  And Moses took half of the blood, and put [it] in

basins;

and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.

EX-24:7  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.

EX-24:8  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.

EX-24:9  Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and

seventy of the elders of Israel:

EX-24:10  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.

EX-24:11  And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid

not

his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.

EX-24:12  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.

EX-24:13  And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses

went

up into the mount of God.

EX-24:14  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.

EX-24:15  And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered

the

mount.

EX-24:16  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.

EX-24:17  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.

EX-24:18  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.
