1One day the Lord said to Moses, “Cut two flat stones like the first ones I made, and I will write on them the same commandments that were on the two you broke.
2Be ready tomorrow morning to come up Mount Sinai and meet me at the top.
3No one is to come with you or to be on the mountain at all. Don't even let the sheep and cattle graze at the foot of the mountain.”
4So Moses cut two flat stones like the first ones, and early the next morning he carried them to the top of Mount Sinai, just as the Lord had commanded.
5The Lord God came down in a cloud and stood beside Moses there on the mountain. God spoke his holy name, “the Lord .”[#34.5 See the note at 3.14,15.]
6Then he passed in front of Moses and called out, “I am the Lord God. I am merciful and very patient with my people. I show great love, and I can be trusted.[#Ex 20.5,6; Nu 14.18; Dt 5.9,10; 7.9,10.]
7I keep my promises to my people forever, but I also punish anyone who sins. When people sin, I punish them and their children, and also their grandchildren and great-grandchildren.”
8Moses quickly bowed down to the ground and worshiped the Lord .
9He prayed, “Lord , if you really are pleased with me, I pray that you will go with us. It is true that these people are sinful and rebellious, but forgive our sin and let us be your people.”
10The Lord said:
27The Lord told Moses to put these laws in writing, as part of his agreement with Israel.
28Moses stayed on the mountain with the Lord for 40 days and nights, without eating or drinking. And he wrote down the Ten Commandments, the most important part of God's agreement with his people.
29Moses came down from Mount Sinai, carrying the Ten Commandments. His face was shining brightly because the Lord had been speaking to him. But Moses did not know at first that his face was shining.[#2 Co 3.7-16.]
30When Aaron and the others looked at Moses, they saw this, and they were afraid to go near him.
31Moses called out for Aaron and the leaders to come to him, and he spoke with them.
32Then the rest of the people of Israel gathered around Moses, and he gave them the laws that the Lord had given him on Mount Sinai.
33The face of Moses kept shining, and after he had spoken with the people, he covered his face with a veil.
34Moses would always remove the veil when he went into the sacred tent to speak with the Lord . And when he came out, he would tell the people everything the Lord had told him to say.
35They could see that his face was still shining. So after he had spoken with them, he would put the veil back on and leave it on until the next time he went to speak with the Lord .
