Exodus 33:12-23

12Then MosesH4872 saidH559 toH413 the LORDH3068, “LookH7200, YouH859 have been telling meH559H413, ‘LeadH5927 thisH2088 people upH5971,’ but YouH859 have notH3808 let me knowH3045 whomH834 You will sendH7971 with meH5973. Yet YouH859 have saidH559, ‘I knowH3045 you by nameH8034, and you haveH1571 foundH4672 favorH2580 in My sightH5869.’ 13NowH6258 ifH518 indeedH4994 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in Your sightH5869, pleaseH4994 let me knowH3045 Your waysH1870, that I may know YouH3045H4616 and findH4672 favorH2580 in Your sightH5869. RememberH7200 thatH3588 thisH2088 nationH1471 is Your peopleH5971.”

14And the LORD answeredH559, “My PresenceH6440 will goH1980 with you, and I will give you restH5117.”

15“IfH518 Your PresenceH6440 does notH369 goH1980 with us,” Moses repliedH559, “do notH408 lead us upH5927 from hereH2088. 16For how thenH4100 can it be knownH3045H645 thatH3588 Your peopleH5971 and IH589 have foundH4672 favorH2580 in Your sightH5869, unlessH3808 You goH1980 with usH5973? How else will weH589H5971 be distinguishedH6395 from allH3605 the other peopleH5971 onH5921 the faceH6440 of the earthH127?”

17So the LORDH3068 saidH559 toH413 MosesH4872, “I will doH6213 thisH2088 veryH1571 thingH1697 you have askedH1696, forH3588 you have foundH4672 favorH2580 in My sightH5869, and I knowH3045 you by nameH8034.”

18Then Moses saidH559, “PleaseH4994 show meH7200 Your gloryH3519.”

19“IH589 will cause allH3605 My goodnessH2898 to passH5674 beforeH5921 youH6440,” the LORD repliedH559, “and I will proclaimH7121 My nameH8034—the LORDH3068—in your presenceH6440. I will have mercyH2603 on whomH834 I have mercyH2603, and I will have compassionH7355 on whomH834 I have compassionH7355.”1

20But He addedH559, “You cannotH3808H3201 seeH7200 My faceH6440, forH3588 noH3808 oneH120 can seeH7200 Me and liveH2421.”

21The LORDH3068 continuedH559, “ThereH2009 is a placeH4725 near MeH854 where you are to standH5324 uponH5921 a rockH6697, 22and whenH1961 My gloryH3519 passes byH5674, I will put youH7760 in a cleftH5366 of the rockH6697 and cover youH5526 with My handH3709H5921 untilH5704 I have passed byH5674. 23Then I will take My handH3709 awayH5493, and you will seeH7200 My backH268; but My faceH6440 must notH3808 be seenH7200.”
