(Exodus 34:1–9)
1
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.
2
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.”
3
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.
4
And the LORD wrote on the tablets what had been written previously, the Ten Commandments (a) 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,
5
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.
6
The Israelites traveled from Beeroth Bene-jaakan (b) to Moserah, where Aaron died and was buried, and Eleazar his son succeeded him as priest.
7
From there they traveled to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land with streams of water.
8
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.
9
That is why Levi has no portion or inheritance among his brothers; the LORD is his inheritance, as the LORD your God promised him.
10
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.
11
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 to their fathers to give them.”

A Call to Obedience

(Joshua 24:14–28)
12
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,
13
and to keep the commandments and statutes of the LORD that I am giving you this day for your own good?
14
Behold, to the LORD your God belong the heavens, even the highest heavens, and the earth and everything in it.
15
Yet the LORD has set His affection on your fathers and loved them. And He has chosen you, their descendants after them, above all the peoples, even to this day.
16
Circumcise your hearts, therefore, and stiffen your necks no more.
17
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.
18
He executes justice for the fatherless and widow, and He loves the foreigner, giving him food and clothing.
19
So you also must love the foreigner, since you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
20
You are to fear the LORD your God and serve Him. Hold fast to Him and take your oaths in His name.
21
He is your praise and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome wonders that your eyes have seen.
22
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.

(Exodus 34:1–9)
1
At that time the LORD said to me, “Cut two stone tablets like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood.
2
I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark.”
3
So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut two stone tablets like the first, and went up onto the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.
4
He wrote on the tablets, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the LORD spoke to you on the mountain out of the middle of the fire in the day of the assembly; and the LORD gave them to me.
5
I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the ark which I had made; and there they are as the LORD commanded me.
6
(The children of Israel traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest’s office in his place.
7
From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
8
At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi to bear the ark of the LORD’s covenant, to stand before the LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.
9
Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD your God spoke to him.)
10
I stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the LORD listened to me that time also. The LORD would not destroy you.
11
The LORD said to me, “Arise, take your journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land which I swore to their fathers to give to them.”

A Call to Obedience

(Joshua 24:14–28)
12
Now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
13
to keep the LORD’s commandments and statutes, which I command you today for your good?
14
Behold, to the LORD your God belongs heaven, the heaven of heavens, and the earth, with all that is therein.
15
Only the LORD had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their offspring after them, even you above all peoples, as it is today.
16
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.
17
For the LORD your God, he is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn’t respect persons or take bribes.
18
He executes justice for the fatherless and widow and loves the foreigner in giving him food and clothing.
19
Therefore love the foreigner, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
20
You shall fear the LORD your God. You shall serve him. You shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name.
21
He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things which your eyes have seen.
22
Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now the LORD your God has made you as the stars of the sky for multitude.
