1And the Lord said to Moses, Go forward, go up hence, you and your people, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt, into the land which I swore to Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed.
1And the Lord said unto Moses, Depart, and go up hence, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it:
2And I will send at the same time my angel before your face, and he shall cast out the Amoriteand the Chettite, and the Pherezite and Gergesite, and Evite, and Jebusite, and Chananite.
2And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite:
3And I will bring you into a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up with you, because you are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume you by the way.
3Unto 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.
4And the people having heard this grievous saying, mourned in mourning apparel.
4And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments.
5For the Lord said to the children of Israel, You⌃ are a stiff-necked people; take heed lest I bring on you another plague, and destroy you: now then put off your glorious apparel, and [your] ornaments , and I will show you what I will do to you.
5For the Lord 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.
6So the sons of Israel took off their ornaments and their array at the mount of Choreb.
6And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount Horeb.
7And Moses took his tabernacleand pitched it without the camp, at a distance from the camp; and it was called the Tabernacle of Testimony: and it came to pass [that] every one that sought the Lord went forth to the tabernacle which was without the camp.
7And 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 went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp.
8And whenever Moses went into the tabernacle without the camp, all the people stood every one watching by the doors of his tent; and when Moses departed, they took notice until he entered into the tabernacle.
8And 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.
9And when Moses entered into the tabernacle, the pillar of the cloud descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and [God] talked to Moses.
9And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses.
10And all the people saw the pillar of the cloud standing by the door of the tabernacle, and all the people stood and worshippedevery one at the door of his tent .
10And 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.
11And the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as if one should speak to his friend; and he retired into the camp: but his servant Joshuathe son of Naue, a young man, departed not forth from the tabernacle.
11And the Lord 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.
12And Moses said to the Lord, Behold! you say to me, Lead on this people; but you have not showed me whom you will send with me, but you have said to me, I know you above all, and you have favor with me.
12And Moses said unto the Lord, 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.
13If then I have found favor in your sight, reveal yourself to me , that I may evidently see you; that I may find favor in your sight, and that I may know that this great nation [is] your people.
13Now 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.
14And he says, I myself will go before you, and give you rest.
14And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.
15And he says to him, If you go not up with us yourself, bring menot up hence.
15And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.
16And how shall it be surely known, that both I and this people have found favor with you, except only if you go with us? So both I and your people shall be glorified beyond all the nations, as many as are upon the earth.
16For 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.
17And the Lord said to Moses, I will also do for you this thing, which you have spoken; for you have found grace before me, and I know you above all.
17And the Lord 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.
18And [Moses] says, Manifest yourself to me .
18And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.
19And [God] said, I will pass by before you with my glory, and I will call by my name, the Lord, before you; and I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and will have pity on whom I will have pity.
19And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.
20And [God] said, You shall not be able to see my face; for no man shall see my face, and live.
20And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
21And the Lord said, Behold, [there is] a place by me: you shall stand upon the rock;
21And the Lord said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock:
22and when my glory shall passby, then I will put you into a hole of the rock; and I will cover you over with my hand, until I shall have passed by.
22And 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:
23And I will remove my hand, and then shall you see my back parts; but my face shall not appear to you.
23And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
