Exodus 33:14-23

Darby Translation

¹⁴ And he said, My presence shall go, and I will give thee rest.

¹⁵ And he said to him, If thy presence do not go, bring us not up hence.

¹⁶ And how shall it be known then that I have found grace in thine eyes—I and thy people? [Is it] not by thy going with us? so shall we be distinguished, I and thy people, from every people that is on the face of the earth.

¹⁷ And Jehovah said to Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast said; for thou hast found grace in mine eyes, and I know thee by name.

¹⁸ And he said, Let me, I pray thee, see thy glory.

¹⁹ And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thy face, and I will proclaim the name of Jehovah before thee; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and I will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.

²⁰ And he said, Thou canst not see my face; for Man shall not see me, and live.

²¹ And Jehovah said, Behold, [there is] a place by me: there shalt thou stand on the rock.

²² And it shall come to pass, when my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand, until I have passed by.

²³ And I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see me from behind; but my face shall not be seen.
