Then (the LORD) said to Moses , “ Come up to the LORD — you and Aaron , Nadab and Abihu , and seventy of Israel’s elders — and you are to worship at a distance.
| LXX |
Moses alone ... shall approach the LORD , but the others {must} not come near. And the people may not go up with him. ”
| LXX |
When Moses came and told the people - all the words - and ordinances of the LORD , (they) all responded with one ... voice : “ All the words that the LORD has spoken , we will do. ”
| LXX |
And Moses - wrote down all the words of the LORD. {Early} the next morning he got up and built an altar at the base of the mountain , along with twelve ... pillars for the twelve ... tribes of Israel.
| LXX |
Then he sent out - some young men of Israel ... , and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to the LORD.
| LXX |
Moses took half of the blood and put (it) in bowls , and the other half ... he sprinkled on the altar.
| LXX |
Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it ... to the people , who replied , “ All that the LORD has spoken we will do , and we will be obedient. ”
| LXX |
So Moses - took the blood , sprinkled it on the people , and said , “ This is the blood of the covenant that the LORD has made with you in accordance with all these words. ”
| LXX |
Then Moses went up with Aaron , Nadab and Abihu , and seventy of the elders of Israel ,
| LXX |
and they saw - the God of Israel. Under His feet was a work like a pavement made of sapphire ... , as clear as the sky itself.
| LXX |
But God did not lay His hand - on the nobles of Israel ; they saw Him , and they ate and drank.
| LXX |
Then the LORD said to Moses , “ Come up to Me on the mountain and stay here , so that I may give - the tablets of stone , with the law and commandments - I have written for their instruction. ”
| LXX |
So Moses set out with Joshua - his attendant and went up ... on the mountain of God.
| LXX |
And he said to the elders , “ Wait here until - we return to you. Aaron and Hur are here with you. Whoever ... has a dispute can go to them. ”
| LXX |
When Moses ... went up on the mountain , the cloud - covered it ... ,
| LXX |
and the glory of the LORD settled on Mount Sinai. For six days the cloud covered it , and on the seventh day (the LORD) called to Moses from within the cloud.
And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like a consuming fire on the mountaintop ... in the eyes vvv of the Israelites.
Moses entered ... the cloud as he went up on the mountain , and he remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
