Exodus 33:20-23

20But he added, “You cannot see my face, for no one can see me and live.”

21The Lord said, “Here is a place by me; you will station yourself on a rock.

22When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and will cover you with my hand while I pass by.

23Then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back, but my face must not be seen.”
