EXODUS · Chapter 33
33:1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, and go up behind, you and
the people which you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the
land which I swore unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto your
seed will I give it:
33:2 And I will send an angel before you; and I will drive out the
Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite,
and the Jebusite:
33:3 Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up
in the midst of you; for you are a stubborn people: lest I consume you
in the way.
33:4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and
no man did put on him his ornaments.
33:5 For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel,
All of you are a stubborn people: I will come up into the midst of you
in a moment, and consume you: therefore now put off your ornaments from
you, that I may know what to do unto you.
33:6 And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments
by the mount Horeb.
33:7 And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp,
far off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation.
And it came to pass, that every one which sought the LORD went out unto
the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp.
33:8 And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle,
that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and
looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tabernacle.
33:9 And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the
cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the
Lord talked with Moses.
33:10 And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle
door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent
door.
33:11 And the LORD spoke unto Moses face to face, as a man speaks unto
his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua,
the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.
33:12 And Moses said unto the LORD, See, you says unto me, Bring up
this people: and you have not let me know whom you will send with me. Yet
you have said, I know you by name, and you have also found grace in my
sight.
33:13 Now therefore, I pray you, if I have found grace in your sight,
show me now your way, that I may know you, that I may find grace in your
sight: and consider that this nation is your people.
33:14 And he said, My presence shall go with you, and I will give you
rest.
33:15 And he said unto him, If your presence go not with me, carry
us not up behind.
33:16 For wherein shall it be known here that I and your people have
found grace in your sight? is it not in that you go with us? so shall we
be separated, I and your people, from all the people that are upon the
face of the earth.
33:17 And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that
you have spoken: for you have found grace in my sight, and I know you by
name.
33:18 And he said, I plead to you, show me your glory.
33:19 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before you, and
I will proclaim the name of the LORD before you; and will be gracious to
whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.
33:20 And he said, You can not see my face: for there shall no man
see me, and live.
33:21 And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall
stand upon a rock:
33:22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passes by, that I will
put you in a cleft of the rock, and will cover you with my hand while I
pass by:
33:23 And I will take away mine hand, and you shall see my back parts:
but my face shall not be seen.
