Basic HTML Version
out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite:
3
Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou
art
a
stiffnecked people: lest I consume thee in the way.
4
And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put on him his
ornaments.
5
For the L
ORD
had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, Ye
are
a stiffnecked
people: I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee: therefore now put
off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do unto thee.
6
And the children of Israel
stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount Horeb.
7
And Moses took the tabernacle, and
pitched it without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation.
And it came to pass,
that
every one which sought the L
ORD
went out unto the tabernacle of the
congregation, which
was
without the camp.
8
And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the
tabernacle,
that
all the people rose up, and stood every man
at
his tent door, and looked after Moses,
until he was gone into the tabernacle.
9
And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle,
the cloudy pillar descended, and stood
at
the door of the tabernacle, and
the
L
ORD
talked with Moses.
10
And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand
at
the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up
and worshipped, every man
in
his tent door.
11
And the L
ORD
spake unto Moses face to face, as a
man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son
of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.
12
And Moses said unto the L
ORD
, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast
not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou
hast also found grace in my sight.
13
Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight,
shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that
this nation
is
thy people.
14
And he said, My presence shall go
with thee,
and I will give thee rest.
15
And he said unto him, If thy presence go not
with me,
carry us not up hence.
16
For wherein shall
it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight?
is it
not in that thou goest
with us? so shall we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people that
are
upon the face of
the earth.
17
And the L
ORD
said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou
hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name.
18
And he said, I beseech thee, shew me
thy glory.
19
And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the
name of the L
ORD
before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shewmercy
on whom I will shew mercy.
20
And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man
see me, and live.
21
And the L
ORD
said, Behold,
there is
a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon
a rock:
22
And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the
rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by:
23
And I will take away mine hand, and
thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
