Berean Study BibleInternational Standard Version
1At that time the LORD said to me, “Chisel out two stone tablets like the originals, come up to Me on the mountain, and make an ark of wood.1"At that time, the LORD told me, 'Chisel two tablets of stone for yourself just like the first ones, and then come up to me on the mountain. Also make for yourself a wooden chest.
2And I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke; and you are to place them in the ark.”2I'll write on the tablets what was on the first tablets that you broke. Then place them in the wooden chest.'
3So I made an ark of acacia wood, chiseled out two stone tablets like the originals, and went up the mountain with the two tablets in my hands.3So I made a chest out of acacia wood and chiseled two tablets of stones just like the first ones. Then I went up the mountain with the two tablets in my hands.
4And the LORD wrote on the tablets what had been written previously, the Ten Commandments that He had spoken to you on the mountain out of the fire on the day of the assembly. The LORD gave them to me,4Then the LORD inscribed on the tablets what he wrote before, that is, the Ten Commandments that the LORD declared to you on the mountain from the middle of the fire during the day of the assembly. And the LORD gave them to me.
5and I went back down the mountain and placed the tablets in the ark I had made, as the LORD had commanded me; and there they have remained.5Then I turned, went down the mountain, and placed the tablets in the chest that I had made. They are there now, just as the LORD commanded me."
6The Israelites traveled from Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah, where Aaron died and was buried, and Eleazar his son succeeded him as priest.6"The Israelis traveled from the wells of the descendants of Jaakan to Moserah. Aaron died, and he was buried there. His son Eleazar succeeded him as priest.
7From there they traveled to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land with streams of water.7From there they moved on to Gudgodah and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land with flowing streams.
8At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to serve Him, and to pronounce blessings in His name, as they do to this day.8At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi to carry the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD, to stand in the LORD's presence, to serve, and to bless his name until this day.
9That is why Levi has no portion or inheritance among his brothers; the LORD is his inheritance, as the LORD your God promised him.9That is why the descendants of Levi do not have a portion and an inheritance among their relatives. As for the LORD, he is their inheritance, just as the LORD your God told them.
10I stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights, like the first time, and that time the LORD again listened to me and agreed not to destroy you.10When I stood on the mountain for 40 days and 40 nights as I did the first time, the LORD listened to me once again. The LORD was not willing to destroy you.
11Then the LORD said to me, “Get up. Continue your journey ahead of the people, that they may enter and possess the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.”11So the LORD told me, 'Get up and proceed to lead the people, so they may enter and take possession of the land that I promised to give their ancestors by an oath.'"
12And now, O Israel, what does the LORD your God ask of you but to fear the LORD your God by walking in all His ways, to love Him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,12"Now Israel, what does the LORD your God desire from you? Only this: fear him, walk in all his ways, love him, serve him with all your heart and in all your life,
13and to keep the commandments and statutes of the LORD that I am giving you this day for your own good?13and observe his commands and statutes that I'm commanding you today for your own good.
14Behold, to the LORD your God belong the heavens, even the highest heavens, and the earth and everything in it.14You see, heaven—even the highest heavens—belongs to the LORD, along with the earth and all that is in it,
15Yet the LORD has set His affection on your fathers and loved them. And He has chosen you, their descendants after them, above all the peoples, even to this day.15yet the LORD committed himself to love your ancestors—and did so! He chose you—their descendants after them—from all the nations, as it is today.
16Circumcise your hearts, therefore, and stiffen your necks no more.16Therefore, circumcise your heart and stop being stubborn.
17For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God, showing no partiality and accepting no bribe.17For the LORD your God is the God of all gods, the LORD of all lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who does not show favoritism or take bribes.
18He executes justice for the fatherless and widow, and He loves the foreigner, giving him food and clothing.18He executes justice for the orphan and the widows, loves the foreigner, and gives them food and clothing."
19So you also must love the foreigner, since you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.19"You are to love the foreigner, because you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
20You are to fear the LORD your God and serve Him. Hold fast to Him and take your oaths in His name.20You are to fear the LORD your God and serve him. Cling to him and swear by his name.
21He is your praise and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome wonders that your eyes have seen.21He is the one you are to praise, because he is, your God who carried out those great and awesome things for you that you witnessed.
22Your fathers went down to Egypt, seventy in all, and now the LORD your God has made you as numerous as the stars in the sky.22Your ancestors went down to Egypt with 70 people, but the LORD your God has now made you as numerous as the stars in the sky."
