Chapter 34

1

AND Yahuah said unto Mo­sheh, Hew you two caphire stones like unto the first: and I will write upon these caphires the words that were in the first caphires, which you broke.

2

And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto Mount Ciynai, and present yourself there to me in the top of the Mount.

3

And no man shall come up with you, neither let any man be seen throughout all the Mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.

4

And he hewed two caphire stones like unto the first; and Mosheh rose up early in the morning, and went up unto Mount Ciynai, as Yahuah had commanded him, and took in his hand the two caphire stones.

5

And Yahuah descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of Yahuah.

6

And Yahuah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Yahuah, Yahuah El, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,

7

Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.

8

And Mosheh made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.

9

And he said, If now I have found grace in your sight, O Adonai, let my Adonai, I pray you, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance.

10

And he said, Behold, I cut a covenant: before all your people I will do wonders, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which you are shall see the work of Yahuah: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with you.

11

Guard את that which I command you this day: behold, I drive out before you the Emoriy, and the Kena`aniy, and the Chittiy, and the Perizziy, and the Chivviy, and the Yevuciy.

12

Take heed to yourself, lest you cut a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither you go, lest it be for a snare in the midst of you:

13

But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their Asherah poles:

14

For you shall worship no other el: for Yahuah Qanna is my name; he is a jealous El:

15

Lest you cut a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their elohiym, and do sacrifice unto their elohiym, and one call you, and you eat of his sacrifice;

16

And take of their daughters unto your sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their elohiym, and make your sons go a whoring after their elohiym.

17

You shall make no molten elohai.

18

The Feast of Matstsah shall you guard. Seven days you shall eat matstsah, as I commanded you, in the time of the month Aviyv: for in the month Aviyv you came out from Mitsrayim.

19

All that opens the womb is mine; and every firstling among your cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male.

20

But the firstling of an ass you shall redeem with a lamb: and if you redeem him not, then shall you break his neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.

21

Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in earing time and in harvest you shall rest.

22

And you shall observe the Feast of Qatsiyr, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the Feast of Aciyph at the year's end.

23

Thrice in the year shall all your men children appear before Adonai Yahuah, the Elohai of Yashar'el.

24

For I will cast out the nations before you, and enlarge your borders: neither shall any man desire your land, when you shall go up to appear before Yahuah Elohayka thrice in the year.

25

You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the Feast of the Pecach be left unto the morning.

26

The first of the firstfruits of your land you shall bring unto the house of Yahuah Elohayka. You shall not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

27

And Yahuah said unto Mosheh, Write these words: for after the tenor of these words I have cut a covenant with you and with Yashar'el.

28

And he was there with Yahuah forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the caphires את the words of the covenant, the Ten Devariym.

29

And it came to pass, when Mo­sheh came down from Mount Ciynai with the two caphires of testimony in Mosheh’s hand, when he came down from the Mount, that Mosheh knew not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him.

30

And when Aharon and all the children of Yashar'el saw Mosheh, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him.

31

And Mosheh called unto them; and Aharon and all the rulers of the assembly returned unto him: and Mosheh talked with them.

32

And afterward all the children of Yashar'el came nigh: and he gave them in commandment את all that Yahuah had spoken with him in Mount Ciynai.

33

And till Mosheh had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.

34

But when Mosheh went in before Yahuah to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out. And he came out, and spoke unto the children of Yashar'el את which he was commanded.

35

And the children of Yashar'el saw the face of Mosheh, that the skin of Mosheh's face shone: and Mosheh put the veil upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
