Exodus 24:9-18

9Then Moses went up 1with Aaron, 2Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, 10and 3they saw the God of Israel; and under His feet 45there appeared to be a pavement of sapphire, 6as clear as the sky itself. 11Yet He did not reach out with His hand against the nobles of the sons of Israel; and 7they saw God, and they ate and drank.

12Now the Lord said to Moses, “Come up to Me on the mountain and 8stay there, and 9I will give you the stone tablets 10with the Law and the 11commandments which I have written for their instruction.” 13So Moses got up 12along with 13Joshua his 14servant, and Moses went up to 15the mountain of God. 14But to the elders he said, “16Wait here for us until we return to you. And behold, 17Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever 18has a legal matter, have him approach them.” 15Then Moses went up to the mountain, and 19the cloud covered the mountain. 1620The glory of the Lord 21settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days; and on the seventh day He 22called to Moses from the midst of the cloud. 1723And to the eyes of the sons of Israel, the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a 24consuming fire on the mountain top. 18Then Moses entered the midst of the cloud 25as he went up to the mountain; and Moses was on the mountain for 26forty days and forty nights.
