1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, "Depart, go up from here, you and the people that you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, 'I will give it to your seed.' 2 I will send an angel before you; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite: 3 to a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of you, for you are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume you in the way." 4 When the people heard this evil news, they mourned: and no one put on his jewelry.
5 Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell the children of Israel, 'You
6 The children of Israel stripped themselves of their jewelry from Mount
Horeb onward.
7 Now Moses used to take the tent and to pitch it outside the camp, far
away from the camp, and he called it "The tent of meeting." It happened that
everyone who sought Yahweh went out to the tent of meeting, which was outside
the camp. 8 It happened that when Moses went out to the Tent, that all the
people rose up, and stood, everyone at their tent door, and watched Moses,
until he had gone into the Tent. 9 It happened, when Moses entered into
the Tent, that the pillar of cloud descended, stood at the door of the Tent,
and spoke with Moses. 10 All the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at
the door of the Tent, and all the people rose up and worshiped, everyone at
their tent door. 11 Yahweh spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to
his friend. He turned again into the camp, but his servant Joshua, the son of
Nun, a young man, didn't depart out of the Tent.
12 Moses said to Yahweh, "Behold, you tell me, 'Bring up this people:' and
you haven't let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, 'I
know you by name, and you have also found favor in my sight.' 13 Now
therefore, if I have found favor in your sight, please show me now your ways,
that I may know you, so that I may find favor in your sight: and consider
that this nation is your people."
14 He said, "My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."
15 He said to him, "If your presence doesn't go with me, don't carry us up
from here. 16 For how would people know that I have found favor in your
sight, I and your people? Isn't it in that you go with us, so that we are
separated, I and your people, from all the people who are on the surface of
the earth?"
17 Yahweh said to Moses, "I will do this thing also that you have spoken;
for you have found favor in my sight, and I know you by name."
18 He said, "Please show me your glory."
19 He said, "I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will
proclaim the name of Yahweh before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be
gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy." 20 He said, "You
cannot see my face, for man may not see me and live." 21 Yahweh also said,
"Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand on the rock. 22 It
will happen, while my glory passes by, that I will put you in a cleft of the
rock, and will cover you with my hand until I have passed by; 23 then I
will take away my hand, and you will see my back; but my face shall not be
seen."
