Exodus 24:12-18
Legacy Standard Bible
12 Now Yahweh said to Moses, “Come up to Me on the mountain and [a]remain there, and (A)I will give you the stone tablets [b]with the [c]law and the commandment which I have written for their instruction.” 13 So Moses arose [d]with (B)Joshua his [e]attendant, and Moses went up to (C)the mountain of God. 14 But to the elders he said, “(D)Remain here for us until we return to you. And behold, (E)Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever [f]has a legal matter, let him approach them.” 15 Then Moses went up to the mountain, and (F)the cloud covered the mountain. 16 (G)And the glory of Yahweh dwelt on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days; and on the seventh day He (H)called to Moses from the midst of the cloud. 17 (I)And the appearance of the glory of Yahweh was like a (J)consuming fire on the mountain top, in the eyes of the sons of Israel. 18 Then Moses entered the midst of the cloud [g]as he went up to the mountain; and Moses was on the mountain (K)forty days and forty nights.

Moses Receives the Law on the Mountain
12 Then the Lord told Moses, “Go up to me on the mountain and stay[a] there. I’ll give you stone tablets with the instruction and law that I’ve written to teach the people.”[b]
13 So Moses got up, along with Joshua his servant, and went up on the mountain of God. 14 He told the elders, “Wait here for us until we return to you. Look, Aaron and Hur are with you, and whoever has a dispute, let him come to them.”
15 When Moses went up on the mountain, the cloud covered it. 16 The glory of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. Then on the seventh day he called to Moses from within the cloud. 17 To the Israelis[c] the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire on top of the mountain. 18 When Moses went up on the mountain, he went into the center of the cloud and was on the mountain for 40 days and 40 nights.
