1 “At that time YHWH had said to me, Hew two tablets of stone for yourself like the first, and come up to Me into the mountain, and you will make an ark of wood for yourself, 2 and I will write on the tablets the words which were on the first tablets, which you broke, and you will place them in the Ark. 3 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tablets of stone like the first, and went up to the mountain with the two tablets in my hand. 4 And He wrote on the tablets according to the first writing, the Ten Commandments, which YHWH had spoken to you in the mountain, out of the middle of the fire, in the day of the assembly, and YHWH gave them to me, 5 and I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the Ark which I had made, and they were there, as YHWH commanded me. 6 And the sons of Israel journeyed from Beeroth of the sons of Jaakan to Mosera. Aaron died there, and was buried there, and his son Eleazar acted as priest in his stead. 7 From there they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water. 8 At that time YHWH had separated the tribe of Levi to carry the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, to stand before YHWH, to serve Him, and to bless in His name to this day. 9 Therefore there had not been a portion and inheritance for Levi with his brothers. YHWH Himself was his inheritance, as your God YHWH had spoken to him. 10 And I stood in the mountain, as the former days, for 40 days and 40 nights, and YHWH also listened to me at that time. YHWH had not willed to destroy you. 11 And YHWH said to me, Rise, go to journey before the people, and they will go in and possess the land which I have sworn to their fathers to give to them. 12 And now, O Israel, what is your God YHWH asking from you, except to fear your God YHWH, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve your God YHWH with all your heart and with all your soul, 13 to keep the commands of YHWH, and His statutes which I am commanding you today, for good for you? 14 Look, the heavens, even the heavens of the heavens, belong to your God YHWH, as does the earth and all that is in it. 15 Only, YHWH has delighted in your fathers, to love them, and He fixed on their seed after them—on you, out of all the peoples, as at this day. 16 And you will circumcise the foreskin of your heart, and will not harden your neck anymore. 17 For He, your God YHWH, is God of the gods and Lord of the lords—the great, the mighty, and the fearful God, who does not accept by appearances, nor takes a bribe. 18 He is doing the judgment of fatherless and widow, and loving the sojourner, to give bread and raiment to him. 19 And you will love the sojourner, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt. 20 You will fear your God YHWH, you will serve Him, and you will cleave to Him, and swear by His name. 21 He will be your praise, and He will be your God, who has done these great and fearful things with you which your eyes have seen. 22 Your fathers went down to Egypt with 70 persons, and now your God YHWH has made you as the stars of the heavens for multitude.”
