    梅瑟便凿了两块石版,和先前的一样;照上主的吩咐,清早起来,上了西乃山,手中拿着两块石版。

    上主乘云降下,站在梅瑟身旁,他便呼喊"雅威"名号。

    对万代的人保持仁爱,宽赦过犯、罪行和罪过,但是决不豁免惩罚,父亲的过犯向子孙追讨,直到三代四代。"

    梅瑟急忙俯伏在地朝拜,

    9Thenhesaid,"IfIfindfavorwithyou,OLord,docomealonginourcompany.Thisisindeedastiff-neckedpeople;yetpardonourwickednessandsins,andreceiveusasyourown."

    说:"吾主,若是我真在你眼中得宠,求吾主与我们同行;这百姓固然执拗,但求你宽免我们的过犯和罪恶,以我们为你的所有物。"

    上主说:"看,我要立约:我在你的全百姓前所要行的奇迹,是在普世万国未行过的;你四周的人民要看见上主的作为,因为我藉你所行的是可怕的事。

    以后上主向梅瑟说:"你要记录这些话,因为我依据这些话同你和以色列子民立了约。"

    28SoMosesstayedtherewiththeLORDforfortydaysandfortynights,withouteatinganyfoodordrinkinganywater,andhewroteonthetabletsthewordsofthecovenant,thetencommandments.

    梅瑟在那里同上主一起,停留了四十天四十夜,没有吃饭,也没有喝水;把盟约的话,即十句话,写在石版上。

    梅瑟从西乃山下来的时候,手中拿着两块约版;他下山的时候,未发觉自己的脸皮,因同上主谈过话,而发光。

    30WhenAaron,then,andtheotherIsraelitessawMosesandnoticedhowradianttheskinofhisfacehadbecome,theywereafraidtocomenearhim.

    亚郎和全以色列子民一看见他的脸皮发光,都害怕接近他。

    以后全以色列子民也来到他跟前,他把上主在西乃山上同他所说的一切,都吩咐了他们。

    几时梅瑟到上主台前去同他谈话,就揭去首帕,直到出来的时候;他出来后,就对以色列子民讲明上主吩咐的事,

    35ThentheIsraeliteswouldseethattheskinofMoses'facewasradiant;sohewouldagainputtheveiloverhisfaceuntilhewentintoconversewiththeLORD.

    以色列子民观看梅瑟的脸,见梅瑟的脸皮发光。以后梅瑟再用首帕蒙上自己的脸,直到再去同上主谈话。
