²⁷ And the Lord said to Moses, “Write these words, for in accordance with these words ^(A)I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.”

⁴ And ^(A)Moses wrote down all the words of the Lord. He rose early in the morning and built an altar at the foot of the mountain, and twelve ^(B)pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.

The Reading of the Law

⁹ Then Moses ^(A)wrote this law and gave it to the priests, the sons of Levi, ^(B)who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the elders of Israel.

^13 (A)And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, that is, ^(B)the Ten Commandments,^{[a] (C)}and he wrote them on two tablets of stone.

¹⁴ Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write this as a memorial in a book and recite it in the ears of ^(A)Joshua, that ^(B)I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven.”

The Covenant Renewed

¹⁰ And he said, “Behold, ^(A)I am making a covenant. Before all your people ^(B)I will do marvels, such as have not been created in all the earth or in any nation. And all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the Lord, for it is an ^(C)awesome thing that I will do with you.

⁷ Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it in the hearing of the people. And they said, ^(A)“All that the Lord has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient.”
