1And Yehovah said to Moses, Hew two tables of stone like the first: and I will write upon the tables the words that were on the first tables, which you broke. 2And 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 mount. 3And no man shall come up with you; nor let any man be seen throughout all the mount; nor let the flocks or herds feed before that mount. 4And he hewed two tables of stone like the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to mount Sinai, as Yehovah had commanded him, and took in his hand two tables of stone. 5And Yehovah descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of Yehovah. 6And Yehovah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Yehovah, Yehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth; 7keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and who 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. 8And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped. 9And he said, If now I have found favor in your sight, O Lord, please let the Lord go in the midst of us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance. 10And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of Yehovah; for it is a terrible thing that I do with you. 11Observe what I command you this day: behold, I am driving out before you the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite. 12Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it become a snare in the midst of you: 13but you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their Asherim; 14(for you shall bow down to no other god: for Yehovah, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God); 15lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they play the prostitute after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and one invites you and you eat of his sacrifice; 16and 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. 17You shall make for yourself no molten gods. 18The feast of unleavened bread you shall keep. 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. 19All that opens the womb is mine; and all your cattle that are male, the firstlings of cow and sheep. 20And the firstling of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb: and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. All the first-born of your sons you shall redeem. And none shall appear before me empty. 21Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest. 22And you shall observe the feast of weeks, even of the first-fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year’s end. 23Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord Yehovah, the God of Israel. 24For I will cast out nations before you, and enlarge your borders: nor shall any man desire your land, when you go up to appear before Yehovah your God three times in the year. 25You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; nor shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left to the morning. 26The first of the first-fruits of your ground you shall bring to the house of Yehovah your God. You shall not boil a kid in its mother’s milk. 27And Yehovah said to Moses, Write these words: for according to the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel. 28And he was there with Yehovah forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread, nor drank water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments. 29And it happened, 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 did not know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him. 30And 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. 31And Moses called to them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him: and Moses spoke to them. 32And afterward all the children of Israel came near: and he gave them in commandment all that Yehovah had spoken with him in mount Sinai. 33And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. 34But when Moses went in before Yehovah 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. 35And 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.
