Exodus 24:9-11

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

On the Mountain with God

⁹ Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up,^{(A) 10} and they saw the God of Israel. Under his feet there was something like a pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness.^{(B) 11} God^[a] did not lay his hand on the chief men of the Israelites; they beheld God, and they ate and drank.
