12Yahweh said to Moses, "Come up to me on the mountain, and stay here, and I will give you the tables of stone with the law and the commands that I have written, that you may teach them."
13Moses rose up with Joshua, his servant, and Moses went up onto God`s Mountain.
14He said to the elders, "Wait here for us, until we come again to you. Behold, Aaron and Hur are with you. Whoever is involved in a dispute can go to them."
15Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
16The glory of Yahweh settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. The seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
17The appearance of the glory of Yahweh was like devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.
18Moses entered into the midst of the cloud, and went up on the mountain; and Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.
