1 And the LORD [Yahweh] said to Moses, Depart, [and] leave here, you and the people which you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, To your seed will I give it: 2 And 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: but I will not go with you; for you [are] a stiffnecked people: in case I consume you in the way. 4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man put on him his ornaments. 5 For the LORD [Yahweh] had said to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, You [are] a stiffnecked people: I will come up into the midst of you in a moment, and consume you: therefore now put off your ornaments from you, that I may know what to do to you. 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 LORD [Yahweh] went out to the tabernacle of the congregation, which [was] without the camp. 8 And it came to pass, when Moses went out to 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 happened, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood [at] the door of the tabernacle, and [the LORD [Yahweh]] talked with Moses. 10 And all the people saw the cloudy pillar standing [at] the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man [in] his tent door. 11 And the LORD [Yahweh] spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. And he returned again to the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, did not leave the tabernacle. 12 And Moses said to the LORD [Yahweh], See, you say to me, Bring up this people: and you have not let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, I know you by name, and you have also found grace in my sight. 13 Now therefore, I pray you, if I have found grace in your sight, show me now your way, that I may know you, that I may find grace in your sight: and consider that this nation [is] your people. 14 And he said, My presence will go with you personally, and I will cause you to settle down and take it easy. 15 But he answered, If your presence does not go with us [both], then let us rather not leave here. 16 For how can it be known then, that I and your people have found grace in your sight unless you go with us? In this way we will be set apart and distinguished, I and your people, from all the nations that [are] upon the face of the earth. 17 And the LORD [Yahweh] said to Moses, I will indeed do this thing that you have spoken: for you have found grace in my sight, and I know you by name. 18 And he said, I beseech you, show me your glory. 19 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD [Yahweh] before you; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy. 20 And he said, You can not look upon my presence: for nobody can look at me and continue to live. 21 And the LORD [Yahweh] said, There is a spot close to me where you can stand on a pillar of rock: 22 And what will happen is that while my glory passes by, I will put you in a crevice in this rock, and I will screen you with my hand while I pass by: 23 Then I will remove my hand, and you will see my rear (the afterglow of my presence): but my presence will not be visible.
