The LORD said to Moses, "Go up from here, you and the people you brought out of the land of Egypt, to the land I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob when I said, 'I will give it to your offspring.'
I will send an angel ahead of you, and I will drive out the Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
Go up to a land flowing with milk and honey. But I will not go up among you, because you are a stubborn people, and I might destroy you on the way."
When the people heard this hard word, they mourned, and no one put on his ornaments.
The LORD said to Moses, "Tell the Israelites: You are a stubborn people. If I went up among you for even a moment, I would destroy you. Now take off your ornaments, and I will decide what to do with you."
Moses would take the tent and pitch it outside the camp, some distance away, and he called it the tent of meeting. Anyone who sought the LORD would go out to the tent of meeting outside the camp.
Whenever Moses went out to the tent, all the people would rise and stand, each at the entrance of his own tent, watching Moses until he had entered the tent.
And whenever Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would come down and stand at the entrance of the tent, and the LORD would speak with Moses.
When all the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the entrance of the tent, they would rise and bow down, each at the entrance of his own tent.
The LORD would speak with Moses face to face, as one speaks with a friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his assistant Joshua son of Nun, a young man, never left the tent.
Moses said to the LORD, "See, you tell me, 'Lead this people up,' but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, 'I know you by name, and you have found favor in my eyes.'
Now then, if I have found favor in your eyes, please show me your ways, so that I may know you and continue to find favor in your eyes. Remember that this nation is your people."
The LORD answered, "My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."
Then Moses said to him, "If your presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here.
How will anyone know that I and your people have found favor in your eyes unless you go with us? What else will set me and your people apart from every other people on the face of the earth?"
And the LORD said to Moses, "I will do this very thing you have asked, for you have found favor in my eyes, and I know you by name."
Then Moses said, "Please, show me your glory."
And the LORD said, "I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and I will show mercy to whom I will show mercy.
But he said, "You cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live."
Then the LORD said, "There is a place near me where you shall stand on the rock.
When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft of the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by.
Then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back; but my face must not be seen."
