(Exodus 34:1–9)
1
At that time Yahweh said to me, ’Carve two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to me on the mountain, and make an ark of wood.
2
I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets that you broke, and you will put them in the ark.’
3
So I made an ark of acacia wood, and I carved two tablets of stone like the first, and I went up the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.
4
He wrote on the tablets, like the first writing, the Ten Commandments which Yahweh had spoken to you on the mountain out of the middle of the fire on the day of the assembly; then Yahweh gave them to me.
5
I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the ark that I had made; there they are, as Yahweh commanded me.”
6
The people of Israel journeyed from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; Eleazar, his son, served in the priest’s office in his place.
7
From there they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of streams of water.
8
At that time Yahweh chose the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, to stand before Yahweh to serve him, and to bless people in his name, as today.
9
Therefore, Levi has no portion nor inheritance of land with his brothers; Yahweh is his inheritance, as Yahweh your God spoke to him.
10
“I stayed on the mountain as at the first time, forty days and forty nights. Yahweh listened to me that time also; Yahweh did not wish to destroy you.
11
Yahweh said to me, ‘Arise, go before the people to lead them on their journey; they will go in and possess the land that I swore to their ancestors to give to them.’

A Call to Obedience

(Joshua 24:14–28)
12
Now, Israel, what does Yahweh your God require of you, except to fear Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, and to worship Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
13
to keep the commandments of Yahweh, and his statutes, which I am commanding you today for your own good?
14
Behold, to Yahweh your God belongs heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is in them.
15
Only Yahweh took pleasure in your fathers so as to love them, and he chose you, their descendants, after them, more than any of the other peoples, as he does today.
16
Therefore, circumcise the foreskin of your heart, and be stubborn no longer.
17
For Yahweh your God, he is God of gods and Lord of masters, the great God, the mighty one and the fearsome one, who favors no one and takes no bribes.
18
He executes justice for the fatherless and widow, and he shows love for the foreigner by giving him food and clothing.
19
Therefore, love the foreigner; for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
20
You will fear Yahweh your God; him will you worship. To him you must cling, and by his name will you swear.
21
He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and fearsome things, which your eyes have seen.
22
Your fathers went down into Egypt as seventy persons; now Yahweh your God has made you as many as the stars of the heavens.
(Exodus 34:1–9)
1
At that time the LORD said to me, “Cut two stone tablets like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood.
2
I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark.”
3
So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut two stone tablets like the first, and went up onto the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.
4
He wrote on the tablets, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the LORD spoke to you on the mountain out of the middle of the fire in the day of the assembly; and the LORD gave them to me.
5
I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the ark which I had made; and there they are as the LORD commanded me.
6
(The children of Israel traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest’s office in his place.
7
From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
8
At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi to bear the ark of the LORD’s covenant, to stand before the LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.
9
Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD your God spoke to him.)
10
I stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the LORD listened to me that time also. The LORD would not destroy you.
11
The LORD said to me, “Arise, take your journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land which I swore to their fathers to give to them.”

A Call to Obedience

(Joshua 24:14–28)
12
Now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
13
to keep the LORD’s commandments and statutes, which I command you today for your good?
14
Behold, to the LORD your God belongs heaven, the heaven of heavens, and the earth, with all that is therein.
15
Only the LORD had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their offspring after them, even you above all peoples, as it is today.
16
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.
17
For the LORD your God, he is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn’t respect persons or take bribes.
18
He executes justice for the fatherless and widow and loves the foreigner in giving him food and clothing.
19
Therefore love the foreigner, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
20
You shall fear the LORD your God. You shall serve him. You shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name.
21
He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things which your eyes have seen.
22
Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now the LORD your God has made you as the stars of the sky for multitude.
