The Book of Exodus 24

24Then Yahweh said to Moses. “Come up to me on top of this mountain, you and Aaron and his sons Nadab and Abihu. Also take along seventy of the Israelite elders. You will all worship me at an appropriate distance. 2Moses, you will come near to me alone. The others must not come near, and the rest of the people must not come up the mountain with you.”

3Moses went and told the people everything that Yahweh had said and all that he had commanded. The people all replied together, saying, “We will do everything that Yahweh has told us to do.” 4Then Moses wrote down everything that Yahweh had commanded. Moses woke early the next morning and built an altar at the bottom of the mountain. He also set up twelve stones, one for each of the Israelite tribes. 5Then he sent some young Israelite men to burn sacrifices to Yahweh and to sacrifice some bulls as offerings to promise friendship with Yahweh. 6Moses took half of the blood of the animals that they slaughtered and put it in bowls. The other half of the blood he threw against the altar. 7Then he loudly read the scroll on which he had written everything that Yahweh and the people were promising each other so all the people could hear it. Then all the people said, “We will do everything that Yahweh has told us to do. We will obey everything.”

8Then Moses took the blood that was in the bowls and threw it on the people. He said, “This is the blood that confirms what Yahweh is agreeing with you—what you just heard and agreed to.”

9Then Moses and Aaron along with Nadab, Abihu, and the seventy Israelite elders went up the mountain, 10and they saw God, the one whom the Israelites worship. Under his feet was something like a pavement made of blue stones called sapphires. They were as clear as the sky is when there are no clouds. 11God did not harm those Israelite elders even though they saw him. They saw God, and they ate and drank together.

12Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Come up to me on top of this mountain and wait there. I will give you stone slabs, my law, and my commandments, all of which I have written so that you may teach them to the people.”

13Then Moses started out with his assistant Joshua. He went part of the way up the mountain where God was. 14Moses told the elders, “Stay here until we return. Do not forget that Aaron and Hur will be with you, so if anyone disputes with his neighbor while I am gone, he can go to them and they will judge it.”

15Then Moses went the rest of the way up the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. 16Yahweh’s glory came down onto the mountain and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day, Yahweh called to Moses from the middle of the cloud. 17To the Israelites, Yahweh’s glory looked like a fire consuming the top of the mountain. 18Moses went into the cloud on top of the mountain and was there for 40 days and nights.
