Yahweh Cuts His Covenant with Israel
24 Then He said to Moses, “(A)Come up to Yahweh, you and Aaron, (B)Nadab and Abihu and (C)seventy of the elders of Israel, and you all shall worship at a distance. 2 Moses alone, however, shall come near to Yahweh, but they shall not come near, and the people shall not come up with him.”
3 Then Moses came and recounted to the people all the words of Yahweh and all the judgments; and all the people answered with one voice and said, “(D)All the words which Yahweh has spoken we will do!” 4 (E)And Moses wrote down all the words of Yahweh. Then he arose early in the morning and built an (F)altar [a]at the foot of the mountain with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel. 5 And he sent young men of the sons of Israel, (G)and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to Yahweh. 6 (H)And Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and the other half of the blood he [b]sprinkled on the altar. 7 Then he took (I)the book of the covenant and read it in the hearing of the people; and they said, “(J)All that Yahweh has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient!” 8 So (K)Moses took the blood and [c]sprinkled it on the people and said, “Behold (L)the blood of the covenant, which Yahweh has cut with you [d]in accordance with all these words.”
9 Then Moses went up [e]with Aaron, (M)Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, 10 and (N)they saw the God of Israel; and under His feet [f](O)there appeared to be a pavement of sapphire, [g]as clear as the sky itself. 11 Yet He did not stretch out His hand against the nobles of the sons of Israel; and (P)they beheld God, and they ate and drank.
Jesus Appears at the Sea of Galilee
21 After these things Jesus [a](A)manifested Himself (B)again to the disciples at the (C)Sea of Tiberias, and He manifested Himself in this way. 2 Simon Peter, and (D)Thomas called [b]Didymus, and (E)Nathanael of (F)Cana in Galilee, and (G)the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together. 3 Simon Peter *said to them, “I am going fishing.” They *said to him, “We will also come with you.” They went out and got into the boat; and (H)that night they caught nothing.
4 But when the day was now breaking, Jesus stood on the beach; yet the disciples did not (I)know that it was Jesus. 5 So Jesus *said to them, “Children, (J)do you have [c]any fish?” They answered Him, “No.” 6 And He said to them, “(K)Cast the net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” So they cast, and then they were not able to haul it in because of the great number of fish. 7 (L)Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved *said to Peter, “It is the Lord.” So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put his outer garment on (for he was stripped for work), and cast himself into the sea. 8 But the other disciples came in the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but about [d]two hundred cubits away, dragging the net full of fish.
9 So when they got out on the land, they *saw a charcoal (M)fire in place and (N)fish placed on it, and bread. 10 Jesus *said to them, “Bring some of the (O)fish which you have now caught.” 11 Simon Peter went up and drew the net to land, full of large fish, 153; and although there were so many, the net was not torn.
Jesus Provides Breakfast
12 Jesus *said to them, “Come, have (P)breakfast.” None of the disciples dared to question Him, “Who are You?” knowing that it was the Lord. 13 Jesus *came and *took (Q)the bread and *gave it to them, and the (R)fish likewise. 14 This is now the (S)third time that Jesus [e]was manifested to the disciples, after He was raised from the dead.
