MLV(i)
1 And Jehovah said to Moses, Hew two tablets of stone like the first and I will write upon the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.
2 And 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 And no man will come up with you, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mountain, neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mountain.
4 And he hewed two tablets 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 two tablets 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 loving kindness and truth, 7 keeping loving kindness 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 sons and upon the sons' sons, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
8 And Moses made haste and bowed his head toward the earth and worshiped. 9 And he said, If now I have found favor in your sight, O Lord, I beseech you, let the Lord go in the midst of us, because it is a stiff-necked people and pardon our iniquity and our sin and take us for your inheritance.
10 And 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 will see the work of Jehovah, because it is an awesome thing that I do with you.
11 Observe you what I command you this day. Behold, I drive out before you the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite. 12 Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you go, lest it is for a snare in the midst of you.
13 But you* will break down their altars and dash in pieces their pillars and you* will cut down their Asherim, 14 for you will worship no other god. For Jehovah, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. 15 Lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land and they play the prostitute after their gods and sacrifice to their gods and a man calls 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 will make you no molten gods.
18 You will keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you will 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 first-offspring of cow and sheep. 20 And the first-offspring of a donkey you will redeem with a lamb and if you will not redeem it, then you will break its neck. All the firstborn of your sons you will redeem. And none will appear before me empty.
21 Six days you will work, but on the seventh day you will rest; in plowing time and in harvest you will rest. 22 And you will observe the feast of weeks, even of the first-fruits of wheat harvest and the feast of ingathering in the middle of the year. 23 Three times in the year all your males will appear before the lord Jehovah, the God of Israel. 24 For I will cast out nations before you and enlarge your borders. Neither will any man desire your land, when you go up to appear before Jehovah your God three times in the year.
25 You will not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread, nor will the sacrifice of the feast of the Passover be left to the morning.
26 The first of the first-fruits of your ground you will bring to the house of Jehovah your God.
You will not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
27 And Jehovah said to Moses, Write these words, for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.
28 And he was there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights. He neither ate bread, nor drank water and he wrote upon the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
29 And 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 did not know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him.
30 And when Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone and they were afraid to come near him. 31 And Moses called to them. And Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him and Moses spoke to them. 32 And afterward all the sons of Israel came near and he gave them in commandment all that Jehovah had spoken with him on Mount Sinai.
33 And when Moses was 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 spoke to the sons of Israel what he was commanded. 35 And the sons 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.
3 And no man will come up with you, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mountain, neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mountain.
