Exo
24:1 He said to Moses, "Come up to Yahweh, you, and Aaron,
Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship
from a distance.
Exo
24:2 Moses alone shall come near to Yahweh, but they shall not come
near, neither shall the people go up with him."
Exo
24:3 Moses came and told the people all the words of Yahweh, and all
the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, and said,
"All the words which Yahweh has spoken will we do."
Exo
24:4 Moses wrote all the words of Yahweh, and rose up early in the
morning, and built an altar under the mountain, and twelve pillars
for the twelve tribes of Israel.
Exo
24:5 He sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt
offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of cattle to Yahweh.
Exo
24:6 Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of
the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
Exo
24:7 He took the book of the covenant and read it in the hearing of
the people, and they said, "All that Yahweh has spoken will we
do, and be obedient."
Exo
24:8 Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said,
"Look, this is the blood of the covenant, which Yahweh has made
with you concerning all these words."
Exo
24:9 Then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of the elders of
Israel went up.
Exo
24:10 They saw the God of Israel. Under his feet was like a paved
work of sapphire stone, like the skies for clearness.
Exo
24:11 He didn't lay his hand on the nobles of the children of
Israel. They saw God, and ate and drank.
Exo
24:12 Yahweh said to Moses, "Come up to me on the mountain, and
stay here, and I will give you the tables of stone with the law and
the commands that I have written, that you may teach them."
Exo
24:13 Moses rose up with Joshua, his servant, and Moses went up onto
God's Mountain.
Exo
24:14 He said to the elders, "Wait here for us, until we come
again to you. Behold, Aaron and Hur are with you. Whoever is involved
in a dispute can go to them."
Exo
24:15 Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the
mountain.
Exo
24:16 The glory of Yahweh settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud
covered it six days. The seventh day he called to Moses out of the
midst of the cloud.
Exo
24:17 The appearance of the glory of Yahweh was like devouring fire
on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.
Exo
24:18 Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up on the
mountain; and Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
