10 “At that time the Lord said to me, 1‘Hew for yourself two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to Me on the mountain and make yourself an aark of wood. 2 And I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke; and byou shall put them in the ark.’
3 “So I made an ark of acacia wood, hewed two tablets of stone like the first, and went up the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand. 4 And He wrote on the tablets according to the first writing, the Ten 2Commandments, cwhich the Lord had spoken to you in the mountain from the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly; and the Lord gave them to me. 5 Then I turned and dcame down from the mountain, and eput the tablets in the ark which I had made; fand there they are, just as the Lord commanded me.”
6 (Now the children of Israel journeyed from the wells of Bene Jaakan to Moserah, where Aaron gdied, and where he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered as priest in his 3stead. 7 hFrom there they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of 4rivers of water. 8 At that time ithe Lord 5separated the tribe of Levi jto bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, kto stand before the Lord to minister to Him and lto bless in His name, to this day. 9 mTherefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brethren; the Lord is his inheritance, just as the Lord your God promised him.)
10 “As at the first time, nI stayed in the mountain forty days and forty nights; othe Lord also heard me at that time, and the Lord chose not to destroy you. 11 pThen the Lord said to me, ‘Arise, begin your journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.’

About The New King James VersionThe New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study. |
