At that time the LORD said to me , “ Chisel out two stone tablets like the originals , come up to Me on the mountain , and make an ark of wood.
And I will write on the tablets - the words that were on the first tablets , which you broke ; and you are to place them in the ark. ”
So I made an ark of acacia wood , chiseled out two stone tablets like the originals , and went up the mountain with the two tablets in my hands.
And (the LORD) wrote on the tablets what had been written previously , - the Ten Commandments that He had spoken to you on the mountain out of the fire on the day of the assembly. The LORD gave them to me ,
and I went back down ... the mountain and placed - the tablets in the ark I had made , as the LORD had commanded me ; and there they have remained -.
The Israelites ... traveled from vvv Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah , where Aaron died and was buried - , and Eleazar his son succeeded him as priest ....
From there they traveled to Gudgodah , and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah , a land with streams of water.
At that time the LORD - set apart the tribe of Levi to carry - the ark of the covenant of the LORD , to stand before the LORD to serve Him , and to pronounce blessings in His name , as (they do) to this day ... ....
That is why ... Levi has no portion or inheritance among his brothers ; the LORD ... is his inheritance , as the LORD your God promised
I stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights , like the first time , and that time the LORD again listened to me (and) agreed not to destroy you.
Then the LORD said to me , “ Get up. Continue your journey ahead of the people , that they may enter and possess - the land that I swore their fathers to give them. ”
And now , O Israel , what does the LORD your God ask of you but ... to fear - the LORD your God by walking in all His ways , to love Him - , to serve - the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul ,
(and) to keep - the commandments and statutes of the LORD that I am giving you this day for your own good
Behold , to the LORD your God belong the heavens , even the highest heavens , and the earth and everything -
Yet the LORD has set His affection on your fathers and loved them. And He has chosen you , their descendants after above all the peoples , even to this day ....
Circumcise - - your hearts, therefore , and stiffen your necks no more.
For the LORD your God ... is God of gods and Lord of lords , the great , mighty , and awesome - God , showing no partiality ... and accepting no bribe.
He executes justice for the fatherless and widow , and He loves the foreigner , giving food and clothing.
So you also must love - the foreigner , since you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
- You are to fear - the LORD your God and serve Hold fast to Him and take your oaths in His name.
He is your praise and He is your God , who has done for you - these great - and awesome wonders that your eyes have seen.
Your fathers went down to Egypt , seventy in all , and now the LORD your God has made you as numerous as the stars in the sky.
