33 2 God promiseth to send an Angel before his people. 4 They are sad because the Lord denieth to go up with them. 9 Moses talketh familiarly with God.  13 He prayeth for the people.

Afterward the Lord said unto Moses, Depart, [a]go up from hence, thou, and the people (which thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt) unto the land which I sware unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, (A)Unto thy seed will I give it.

And (B)I will send an Angel before thee, and will cast out the Canaanites, the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites,

To a land, I say, that floweth with milk and honey: for I will not go up with thee, (C)because thou art a stiff-necked people, lest I consume thee in the way.

And when the people heard this evil tidings, they sorrowed, and no man put on his best raiment.

(For the Lord had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiff-necked people, I will come suddenly upon thee and consume thee: therefore now put thy costly raiment from thee, that I may know [b]what to do unto thee.)

So the children of Israel laid their good raiment from them, after Moses came down from the mount Horeb.
