Exodus 33:18-23

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ And he said: shew me thy glory.

¹⁹ He answered: I will shew thee all good, and I will proclaim in the name of the Lord before thee: and I will have mercy on whom I will, and I will be merciful to whom it shall please me.

²⁰ And again he said: Thou canst not see my face: for man shall not see me and live.

²¹ And again he said: Behold there is a place with me, and thou shalt stand upon the rock.

²² And when my glory shall pass, I will set thee in a hole of the rock, and protect thee with my right hand, till I pass:

²³ And I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face thou canst not see.
