Exodus 24:12-18
New American Standard Bible
12 Now the Lord said to Moses, “Come up to Me on the mountain and [a]stay there, and (A)I will give you the stone tablets [b]with the Law and the [c]commandments which I have written for their instruction.” 13 So Moses got up [d]along with (B)Joshua his [e]servant, and Moses went up to (C)the mountain of God. 14 But to the elders he said, “(D)Wait here for us until we return to you. And behold, (E)Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever [f]has a legal matter, have him approach them.” 15 Then Moses went up to the mountain, and (F)the cloud covered the mountain. 16 (G)The glory of the Lord [g]settled 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 to the eyes of the sons of Israel, the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a (J)consuming fire on the mountain top. 18 Then Moses entered the midst of the cloud [h]as he went up to the mountain; and Moses was on the mountain for (K)forty days and forty nights.

Common English Bible
12 The Lord said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain and wait there. I’ll give you the stone tablets with the instructions and the commandments that I’ve written in order to teach them.”
13 So Moses and his assistant Joshua got up, and Moses went up God’s mountain. 14 Moses had said to the elders, “Wait for us here until we come back to you. Aaron and Hur will be here with you. Whoever has a legal dispute may go to them.”
15 Then Moses went up the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. 16 The Lord’s glorious presence settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from the cloud. 17 To the Israelites, the Lord’s glorious presence looked like a blazing fire on top of the mountain. 18 Moses entered the cloud and went up the mountain. Moses stayed on the mountain for forty days and forty nights.
