The LORD asked him, “What is that in your hand? ”

“A staff,” he replied.

The LORD told Moses, “Stretch out your hand and grab it by the tail.” So he stretched out his hand and caught it, and it became a staff in his hand.

“Therefore tell the Israelites: I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from the forced labor of the Egyptians and rescue you from slavery to them. I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and great acts of judgment.

Then the LORD spoke to Moses,

Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron and gave them commands concerning both the Israelites and Pharaoh king of Egypt to bring the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.

On the day the LORD spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt,

The LORD answered Moses, “See, I have made you like God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet.

“The Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I stretch out my hand against Egypt and bring out the Israelites from among them.”

The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,

So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and did just as the LORD had commanded. Aaron threw down his staff before Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a serpent.

However, Pharaoh's heart was hard, and he did not listen to them, as the LORD had said.

“Tell him: The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to tell you: Let my people go, so that they may worship[fn] me in the wilderness. But so far you have not listened.

So the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron: Take your staff and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt ​— ​over their rivers, canals, ponds, and all their water reservoirs ​— ​and they will become blood. There will be blood throughout the land of Egypt, even in wooden and stone containers.”

But the magicians of Egypt did the same thing by their occult practices. So Pharaoh's heart was hard, and he would not listen to them, as the LORD had said.

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh and tell him: This is what the LORD says: Let my people go, so that they may worship me.

The LORD then said to Moses, “Tell Aaron: Stretch out your hand with your staff over the rivers, canals, and ponds, and cause the frogs to come up onto the land of Egypt.”

The LORD did as Moses had said: the frogs in the houses, courtyards, and fields died.

But when Pharaoh saw there was relief, he hardened his heart and would not listen to them, as the LORD had said.

“This is the finger of God,” the magicians said to Pharaoh. But Pharaoh's heart was hard, and he would not listen to them, as the LORD had said.

“But on that day I will give special treatment to the land of Goshen, where my people are living; no flies will be there. This way you will know that I, the LORD, am in the land.

And the LORD did this. Thick swarms of flies went into Pharaoh's palace and his officials' houses. Throughout Egypt the land was ruined because of the swarms of flies.

The LORD did as Moses had said: He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, his officials, and his people; not one was left.

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh and say to him: This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let my people go, so that they may worship me.

And the LORD set a time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD will do this thing in the land.”

Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take handfuls of furnace soot, and Moses is to throw it toward heaven in the sight of Pharaoh.

But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart and he did not listen to them, as the LORD had told Moses.

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven and let there be hail throughout the land of Egypt ​— ​on people and animals and every plant of the field in the land of Egypt.”

Pharaoh sent for Moses and Aaron. “I have sinned this time,” he said to them. “The LORD is the righteous one, and I and my people are the guilty ones.

So Pharaoh's heart was hard, and he did not let the Israelites go, as the LORD had said through Moses.

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his officials so that I may do these miraculous signs of mine among them,[fn]

He said to them, “The LORD would have to be with you if I would ever let you and your families go! Look out ​— ​you're heading for trouble.

The LORD then said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt, and the locusts will come up over it and eat every plant in the land, everything that the hail left.”

Then the LORD changed the wind to a strong west[fn] wind, and it carried off the locusts and blew them into the Red Sea. Not a single locust was left in all the territory of Egypt.

But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he was unwilling to let them go.

The LORD said[fn] to Moses, “I will bring one more plague on Pharaoh and on Egypt. After that, he will let you go from here. When he lets you go,[fn] he will drive you out of here.

The LORD gave[fn] the people favor with the Egyptians. In addition, Moses himself was very highly regarded[fn] in the land of Egypt by[fn] Pharaoh's officials and the people.

“But against all the Israelites, whether people or animals, not even a dog will snarl,[fn] so that you may know that the LORD makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.

The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you, so that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”

The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt,

“I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night and strike every firstborn male in the land of Egypt, both people and animals. I am the LORD; I will execute judgments against all the gods of Egypt.

“When the LORD passes through to strike Egypt and sees the blood on the lintel and the two doorposts, he will pass over the door and not let the destroyer enter your houses to strike you.

“When you enter the land that the LORD will give you as he promised, you are to observe this ceremony.

Then the Israelites went and did this; they did just as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.

And the LORD gave the people such favor with the Egyptians that they gave them what they requested. In this way they plundered the Egyptians.

The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: no foreigner may eat it.

Then all the Israelites did this; they did just as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

Then Moses said to the people, “Remember this day when you came out of Egypt, out of the place of slavery, for the LORD brought you out of here by the strength of his hand. Nothing leavened may be eaten.

“When the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, Hethites, Amorites, Hivites, and Jebusites,[fn] which he swore to your ancestors that he would give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, you must carry out this ceremony in this month.

“On that day explain to your son, ‘This is because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.'

“When the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, as he swore to you and your ancestors, and gives it to you,

“In the future, when your son asks you, ‘What does this mean? ' say to him, ‘By the strength of his hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt, out of the place of slavery.

“So let it be a sign on your hand and a symbol[fn] on your forehead, for the LORD brought us out of Egypt by the strength of his hand.”

Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, because Joseph had made the Israelites swear a solemn oath, saying, “God will certainly come to your aid; then you must take my bones with you from this place.”

Then the LORD spoke to Moses:

“I will harden Pharaoh's heart so that he will pursue them. Then I will receive glory by means of Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD.” So the Israelites did this.

The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the Israelites, who were going out defiantly.[fn]

“The LORD will fight for you, and you must be quiet.”

“The Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I receive glory through Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.”

Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea. The LORD drove the sea back with a powerful east wind all that night and turned the sea into dry land. So the waters were divided,

During the morning watch, the LORD looked down at the Egyptian forces from the pillar of fire and cloud, and threw the Egyptian forces into confusion.

That day the LORD saved Israel from the power of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.

The LORD is a warrior;

the LORD is his name.

The LORD will reign forever and ever!

So he cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a tree. When he threw it into the water, the water became drinkable.

The LORD made a statute and ordinance for them at Marah, and he tested them there.

Then the LORD said to Moses, “I am going to rain bread from heaven for you. The people are to go out each day and gather enough for that day. This way I will test them to see whether or not they will follow my instructions.

So Moses and Aaron said to all the Israelites, “This evening you will know that it was the LORD who brought you out of the land of Egypt,

The LORD spoke to Moses,

When the Israelites saw it, they asked one another, “What is it? ” because they didn't know what it was.

Moses told them, “It is the bread the LORD has given you to eat.

He told them, “This is what the LORD has said: ‘Tomorrow is a day of complete rest, a holy Sabbath to the LORD. Bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil, and set aside everything left over to be kept until morning.' ”

Then the LORD said to Moses, “How long will you[fn] refuse to keep my commands and instructions?

Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Two quarts[fn] of it are to be preserved throughout your generations, so that they may see the bread I fed you in the wilderness when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.' ”

As the LORD commanded Moses, Aaron placed it before the testimony to be preserved.

The LORD answered Moses, “Go on ahead of the people and take some of the elders of Israel with you. Take the staff you struck the Nile with in your hand and go.

He named the place Massah[fn] and Meribah[fn] because the Israelites complained, and because they tested the LORD, saying, “Is the LORD among us or not? ”

The LORD then said to Moses, “Write this down on a scroll as a reminder and recite it to Joshua: I will completely blot out the memory of Amalek under heaven.”

He said, “Indeed, my hand is lifted up toward[fn] the LORD's throne. The LORD will be at war with Amalek from generation to generation.”

Moses's father-in-law, Jethro, the priest of Midian, heard about everything that God had done for Moses and for God's people Israel when the LORD brought Israel out of Egypt.

Moses recounted to his father-in-law all that the LORD had done to Pharaoh and the Egyptians for Israel's sake, all the hardships that confronted them on the way, and how the LORD rescued them.

The LORD said to Moses, “I am going to come to you in a dense cloud, so that the people will hear when I speak with you and will always believe you.” Moses reported the people's words to the LORD,

The LORD came down on Mount Sinai at the top of the mountain. Then the LORD summoned Moses to the top of the mountain, and he went up.

“Even the priests who come near the LORD must consecrate themselves, or the LORD will break out in anger against them.”

And the LORD replied to him, “Go down and come back with Aaron. But the priests and the people must not break through to come up to the LORD, or he will break out in anger against them.”

Then God spoke all these words:

Do not bow in worship to them, and do not serve them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, bringing the consequences of the fathers' iniquity on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me,

Do not misuse the name of the LORD your God, because the LORD will not leave anyone unpunished who misuses his name.

For the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and everything in them in six days; then he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and declared it holy.

Then the LORD told Moses, “This is what you are to say to the Israelites: You have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.

“If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children belong to her master, and the man must leave alone.

“his master is to bring him to the judges[fn] and then bring him to the door or doorpost. His master will pierce his ear with an awl, and he will serve his master for life.

“When an ox[fn] gores a man or a woman to death, the ox must be stoned, and its meat may not be eaten, but the ox's owner is innocent.

“the owner of the pit must give compensation; he must pay to its owner, but the dead animal will become his.

“If the thief is not caught, the owner of the house must present himself to the judges[fn] to determine[fn] whether or not he has taken his neighbor's property.

“there must be an oath before the LORD between the two of them to determine whether or not he has taken his neighbor's property. Its owner must accept the oath, and the other man does not have to make restitution.

“When a man borrows an animal from his neighbor, and it is injured or dies while its owner is not there with it, the man must make full restitution.

Moses came and told the people all the commands of the LORD and all the ordinances. Then all the people responded with a single voice, “We will do everything that the LORD has commanded.”

He then took the covenant scroll and read it aloud to the people. They responded, “We will do and obey all that the LORD has commanded.”

The LORD said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain and stay there so that I may give you the stone tablets with the law and commandments I have written for their instruction.”

The glory of the LORD settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day he called to Moses from the cloud.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“And they will know that I am the LORD their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, so that I might dwell among them. I am the LORD their God.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD said to Moses, “Take fragrant spices: stacte, onycha, and galbanum; the spices and pure frankincense are to be in equal measures.

The LORD also spoke to Moses:

The LORD said to Moses,

“It is a sign forever between me and the Israelites, for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, but on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.”

The LORD spoke to Moses: “Go down at once! For your people you brought up from the land of Egypt have acted corruptly.

So the LORD relented concerning the disaster he had said he would bring on his people.

He told them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Every man fasten his sword to his side; go back and forth through the camp from entrance to entrance, and each of you kill his brother, his friend, and his neighbor.' ”

The LORD replied to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me I will erase from my book.

And the LORD inflicted a plague on the people for what they did with the calf Aaron had made.

The LORD spoke to Moses: “Go up from here, you and the people you brought up from the land of Egypt, to the land I promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying: I will give it to your offspring.

For the LORD said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites: You are a stiff-necked people. If I went up with you for a single moment, I would destroy you. Now take off your jewelry, and I will decide what to do with you.”

The LORD would speak with Moses face to face, just as a man speaks with his friend, then Moses would return to the camp. His assistant, the young man Joshua son of Nun, would not leave the inside of the tent.

The LORD answered Moses, “I will do this very thing you have asked, for you have found favor with me, and I know you by name.”

He said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim the name ‘the LORD' before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.”

The LORD said, “Here is a place near me. You are to stand on the rock,

The LORD said to Moses, “Cut two stone tablets like the first ones, and I will write on them the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.

Moses cut two stone tablets like the first ones. He got up early in the morning, and taking the two stone tablets in his hand, he climbed Mount Sinai, just as the LORD had commanded him.

And the LORD responded, “Look, I am making a covenant. In the presence of all your people I will perform wonders that have never been done[fn] in the whole earth or in any nation. All the people you live among will see the LORD's work, for what I am doing with you is awe-inspiring.

“Because the LORD is jealous for his reputation, you are never to bow down to another god.[fn] He is a jealous God.

The LORD also said to Moses, “Write down these words, for I have made a covenant with you and with Israel based on these words.”

Afterward all the Israelites came near, and he commanded them to do everything the LORD had told him on Mount Sinai.

But whenever Moses went before the LORD to speak with him, he would remove the veil until he came out. After he came out, he would tell the Israelites what he had been commanded,

Moses assembled the entire Israelite community and said to them, “These are the things that the LORD has commanded you to do:

“Do not light a fire in any of your homes on the Sabbath day.”

“Let all the skilled artisans[fn] among you come and make everything that the LORD has commanded:

So the Israelites brought a freewill offering to the LORD, all the men and women whose hearts prompted them to bring something for all the work that the LORD, through Moses, had commanded to be done.

Bezalel, Oholiab, and all the skilled[fn] people are to work based on everything the LORD has commanded. The LORD has given them wisdom and understanding to know how to do all the work of constructing the sanctuary.”

and said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than is needed for the construction of the work the LORD commanded to be done.”

Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything that the LORD commanded Moses.

They made specially woven[fn] garments for ministry in the sanctuary, and the holy garments for Aaron from the blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

The artistically woven waistband that was on the ephod was of one piece with the ephod, according to the same workmanship of gold, of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and of finely spun linen, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

He fastened them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as memorial stones for the Israelites, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

Then they tied the breastpiece from its rings to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue yarn, so that the breastpiece was above the ephod's waistband and did not come loose from the ephod. They did just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

a bell and a pomegranate alternating all around the lower hem of the robe[fn] to be worn for ministry. They made it just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

and the sash of finely spun linen expertly embroidered with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn. They did just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

They attached a cord of blue yarn to it in order to mount it on the turban, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

The Israelites had done all the work according to everything the LORD had commanded Moses.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

Moses did everything just as the LORD had commanded him.

Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

He brought the ark into the tabernacle, put up the curtain for the screen, and screened off the ark of the testimony, just as the LORD had commanded him.

He arranged the bread on it before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.

and set up the lamps before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.

and burned fragrant incense on it, just as the LORD had commanded him.

He set the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing.

Then the LORD summoned Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting:

Then the LORD spoke to Moses:

Then the LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD commanded this to be given to them by the Israelites on the day he anointed them. It is a permanent portion throughout their generations.

which the LORD commanded Moses on Mount Sinai on the day he commanded the Israelites to present their offerings to the LORD in the Wilderness of Sinai.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

So Moses did as the LORD commanded him, and the community assembled at the entrance to the tent of meeting.

He also put the turban on his head and placed the gold medallion, the holy diadem, on the front of the turban, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

Then Moses presented Aaron's sons, clothed them with tunics, wrapped sashes around them, and fastened headbands on them, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

He burned the bull with its hide, flesh, and waste outside the camp, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

but he washed the entrails and legs with water. He then burned the entire ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the LORD as he had commanded Moses.

He also took the breast and presented it before the LORD as a presentation offering; it was Moses's portion of the ordination ram as the LORD had commanded him.

“The LORD commanded what has been done today in order to make atonement for you.

“an ox and a ram for a fellowship offering to sacrifice before the LORD; and a grain offering mixed with oil. For today the LORD is going to appear to you.”

Moses said, “This is what the LORD commanded you to do, that the glory of the LORD may appear to you.”

He burned the fat, the kidneys, and the fatty lobe of the liver from the sin offering on the altar, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

but he presented the breasts and the right thigh as a presentation offering before the LORD, as Moses had commanded.[fn]

Aaron's sons Nadab and Abihu each took his own firepan, put fire in it, placed incense on it, and presented unauthorized fire before the LORD, which he had not commanded them to do.

Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the LORD has spoken:

I will demonstrate my holiness[fn]

to those who are near me,

and I will reveal my glory[fn]

before all the people.”

And Aaron remained silent.

The LORD spoke to Aaron:

“and teach the Israelites all the statutes that the LORD has given to them through Moses.”

“They are to bring the thigh of the contribution and the breast of the presentation offering, together with the food offerings of the fat portions, to present as a presentation offering before the LORD. It will belong permanently to you and your children, as the LORD commanded.”

“Since its blood was not brought inside the sanctuary, you should have eaten it in the sanctuary area, as I commanded.”

The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:

“For I am the LORD your God, so you must consecrate yourselves and be holy because I am holy. Do not defile yourselves by any swarming creature that crawls on the ground.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:

The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:

The LORD spoke to Moses after the death of two of Aaron's sons when they approached the presence of[fn] the LORD and died.

“This is to be a permanent statute for you, to make atonement for the Israelites once a year because of all their sins.” And all this was done as the LORD commanded Moses.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“You are to practice my ordinances and you are to keep my statutes by following them; I am the LORD your God.

“You are not to sacrifice any of your children in the fire[fn] to Molech. Do not profane the name of your God; I am the LORD.

“You must keep my instruction to not do any of the detestable customs that were practiced before you, so that you do not defile yourselves by them; I am the LORD your God.”

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“Do not strip your vineyard bare or gather its fallen grapes. Leave them for the poor and the resident alien; I am the LORD your God.

“Do not swear falsely by my name, profaning the name of your God; I am the LORD.

“Do not curse the deaf or put a stumbling block in front of the blind, but you are to fear your God; I am the LORD.

“Do not go about spreading slander among your people; do not jeopardize[fn] your neighbor's life; I am the LORD.

“Do not take revenge or bear a grudge against members of your community, but love your neighbor as yourself; I am the LORD.

“When you come into the land and plant any kind of tree for food, you are to consider the fruit forbidden.[fn] It will be forbidden to you for three years; it is not to be eaten.

“But in the fifth year you may eat its fruit. In this way its yield will increase for you; I am the LORD your God.

“You are not to make gashes on your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves; I am the LORD.

“Keep my Sabbaths and revere my sanctuary; I am the LORD.

“You will regard the alien who resides with you as the native-born among you. You are to love him as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt; I am the LORD your God.

“You are to have honest balances, honest weights, an honest dry measure,[fn] and an honest liquid measure;[fn] I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“Consecrate yourselves and be holy, for I am the LORD your God.

“And I promised you: You will inherit their land, since I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the LORD your God who set you apart from the peoples.

“You are to be holy to me because I, the LORD, am holy, and I have set you apart from the nations to be mine.

The LORD said to Moses, “Speak to Aaron's sons, the priests, and tell them: A priest is not to make himself ceremonially unclean for a dead person among his relatives,

“You are to consider him holy since he presents the food of your God. He will be holy to you because I, the LORD who sets you apart, am holy.

“He must not leave the sanctuary or he will desecrate the sanctuary of his God, for the consecration of the anointing oil of his God is on him; I am the LORD.

“so that he does not corrupt his bloodline[fn] among his people, for I am the LORD who sets him apart.”

“But because he has a defect, he must not go near the curtain or approach the altar. He is not to desecrate my holy places, for I am the LORD who sets them apart.”

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“He must not eat an animal that died naturally or was mauled by wild beasts,[fn] making himself unclean by it; I am the LORD.

“by letting the people eat their holy offerings and having them bear the penalty of restitution. For I am the LORD who sets them apart.”

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“It is to be eaten on the same day. Do not let any of it remain until morning; I am the LORD.

“You must not profane my holy name; I must be treated as holy among the Israelites. I am the LORD who sets you apart,

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“When you reap the harvest of your land, you are not to reap all the way to the edge of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Leave them for the poor and the resident alien; I am the LORD your God.”

The LORD again spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“so that your generations may know that I made the Israelites live in shelters when I brought them out of the land of Egypt; I am the LORD your God.”

The LORD spoke to Moses:

Then the LORD spoke to Moses:

“You are to have the same law for the resident alien and the native, because I am the LORD your God.”

The LORD spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai:

“You are not to cheat one another, but fear your God, for I am the LORD your God.

“Do not profit or take interest from him, but fear your God and let your brother live among you.

“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.

“For the Israelites are my servants. They are my servants that I brought out of the land of Egypt; I am the LORD your God.

“Do not make worthless idols for yourselves, set up a carved image or sacred pillar for yourselves, or place a sculpted stone in your land to bow down to it, for I am the LORD your God.

“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, so that you would no longer be their slaves. I broke the bars of your yoke and enabled you to live in freedom.[fn]

“Yet in spite of this, while they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject or abhor them so as to destroy them and break my covenant with them, since I am the LORD their God.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

These are the commands the LORD gave Moses for the Israelites on Mount Sinai.

The LORD spoke to Moses in the tent of meeting in the Wilderness of Sinai, on the first day of the second month of the second year after Israel's departure from the land of Egypt:

just as the LORD commanded Moses. He registered them in the Wilderness of Sinai:

For the LORD had told Moses,

The Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:

But the Levites were not registered among the Israelites, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

These are the family records of Aaron and Moses at the time the LORD spoke with Moses on Mount Sinai.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“because every firstborn belongs to me. At the time I struck down every firstborn in the land of Egypt, I consecrated every firstborn in Israel to myself, both man and animal. They are mine; I am the LORD.”

So Moses registered them in obedience to the LORD as he had been commanded:

The LORD told Moses, “Register every firstborn male of the Israelites one month old or more, and list their names.

The LORD spoke to Moses again:

He gave the redemption silver to Aaron and his sons in obedience to the LORD, just as the LORD commanded Moses.

The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:

Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron:

The LORD spoke to Moses:

At the LORD's command they were registered under the direction of Moses, each one according to his work and transportation duty, and his assignment was as the LORD commanded Moses.

The LORD instructed Moses,

The Israelites did this, sending them outside the camp. The Israelites did as the LORD instructed Moses.

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD instructed Moses,

The LORD spoke to Moses:

The LORD said to Moses,

The LORD told Moses, “Each day have one leader present his offering for the dedication of the altar.”

The LORD spoke to Moses:

So Aaron did this; he set up its lamps to give light in front of the lampstand just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

Moses, Aaron, and the entire Israelite community did this to the Levites. The Israelites did everything to them the LORD commanded Moses regarding the Levites.

After that, the Levites came to do their work at the tent of meeting in the presence of Aaron and his sons. So they did to them as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites.

In the first month of the second year after their departure from the land of Egypt, the LORD told Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai,

and they observed it in the first month on the fourteenth day at twilight in the Wilderness of Sinai. The Israelites did everything as the LORD had commanded Moses.

Moses replied to them, “Wait here until I hear what the LORD commands for you.”

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“You are to sound the trumpets over your burnt offerings and your fellowship sacrifices and on your joyous occasions, your appointed festivals, and the beginning of each of your months. They will serve as a reminder for you before your God: I am the LORD your God.”

Moses said to Hobab, descendant of Reuel the Midianite and Moses's relative by marriage, “We're setting out for the place the LORD promised, ‘I will give it to you.' Come with us, and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.”

“If you come with us, whatever good the LORD does for us we will do for you.”

Now the people began complaining openly before[fn] the LORD about hardship. When the LORD heard, his anger burned, and fire from the LORD blazed among them and consumed the outskirts of the camp.

Moses heard the people, family after family, weeping at the entrance of their tents. The LORD was very angry; Moses was also provoked.[fn]

The LORD answered Moses, “Bring me seventy men from Israel known to you as elders and officers of the people. Take them to the tent of meeting and have them stand there with you.

“Tell the people: Consecrate yourselves in readiness for tomorrow, and you will eat meat because you wept in the LORD's hearing, ‘Who will feed us meat? We were better off in Egypt.' The LORD will give you meat and you will eat.

The LORD answered Moses, “Is the LORD's arm weak?[fn] Now you will see whether or not what I have promised will happen to you.”

Then the LORD descended in the cloud and spoke to him. He took some of the Spirit who was on Moses and placed the Spirit on the seventy elders. As the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they never did it again.

But Moses asked him, “Are you jealous on my account? If only all the LORD's people were prophets and the LORD would place his Spirit on them! ”

While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the LORD's anger burned against the people, and the LORD struck them with a very severe plague.

They said, “Does the LORD speak only through Moses? Does he not also speak through us? ” And the LORD heard it.

Suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “You three come out to the tent of meeting.” So the three of them went out.

The LORD answered Moses, “If her father had merely spit in her face, wouldn't she remain in disgrace for seven days? Let her be confined outside the camp for seven days; after that she may be brought back in.”

The LORD spoke to Moses:

“Why is the LORD bringing us into this land to die by the sword? Our wives and children will become plunder. Wouldn't it be better for us to go back to Egypt? ”

“If the LORD is pleased with us, he will bring us into this land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and give it to us.

The LORD said to Moses, “How long will these people despise me? How long will they not trust in me despite all the signs I have performed among them?

“They will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that you, LORD, are among these people, how you, LORD, are seen face to face, how your cloud stands over them, and how you go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night.
