So Moses cut two tablets of stone like the first ones. Then Moses rose up early in the morning and went up to Mount Sinai, just as Jehovah had commanded him; and he took two tablets of stone in his hand.

And Jehovah descended in the cloud and took His place there with him and proclaimed the name of Jehovah.

Then Jehovah passed by before him and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah, God compassionate and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth,

Keeping lovingkindness with thousands of generations, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; but He will by no means clear the guilty, but visits the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and upon the grandchildren, to the third and fourth generations.

And Moses made haste and bowed to the ground and worshipped.

And he said, If now I have found favor in Your sight, O Lord, let the Lord please go in our midst; although they are a stiff-necked people, pardon our iniquity and our sin and take us for Your inheritance.

And He said, Now I hereby make a covenant: Before all your people I will perform wonders such as have not been produced in all the earth, nor among any of the nations; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of Jehovah, for it is an awesome thing that I will do with you.

Observe what I am commanding you today. I will drive out before you the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites.

Be careful that you do not make any covenant with the inhabitants of the land against which you are going, lest they become a snare in your midst.

But their altars you shall tear down, and their pillars you shall shatter, and their Asherahs you shall cut down

(For you shall not worship any other god; for Jehovah, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God),

Lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go as harlots after their gods and sacrifice to their gods, and someone invites you, and you eat of his sacrifice;

And you take some of his daughters for your sons, and his daughters go as harlots after their gods, and make your sons go as harlots after their gods.

You shall not make for yourself any molten gods.

You shall keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the appointed time in the month of Abib, for in the month of Abib you came out from Egypt.

All that opens the womb is Mine, even the first male produced by all your livestock, of cattle or sheep.

And the first offspring of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; but if you do not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem, and they shall not appear before Me empty.

Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall cease from labor. Even in plowing time and in harvest time you shall cease from labor.

And you shall keep the Feast of Weeks, that is, of the firstfruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the turn of the year.

Three times a year all your males shall appear before the Lord Jehovah, the God of Israel.
