05:009:017 And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two
hands, and brake them before your eyes.
05:009:018 And I fell down before the LORD, as at the first, forty days
and forty nights: I did neither eat bread, nor drink water, because of
all your sins which ye sinned, in doing wickedly in the sight of the
LORD, to provoke him to anger.
05:009:019 For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith
the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you. But the LORD hearkened
unto me at that time also.
05:009:020 And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed
him: and I prayed for Aaron also the same time.
05:009:021 And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt
it with fire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even until it
was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that
descended out of the mount.
05:009:022 And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibrothhattaavah, ye
provoked the LORD to wrath.
05:009:023 Likewise when the LORD sent you from Kadeshbarnea, saying,
Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye rebelled
against the commandment of the LORD your God, and ye believed him not,
nor hearkened to his voice.
05:009:024 Ye have been rebellious against the LORD from the day that I
knew you.
05:009:025 Thus I fell down before the LORD forty days and forty
nights, as I fell down at the first; because the LORD had said he would
destroy you.
05:009:026 I prayed therefore unto the LORD, and said, O Lord GOD,
destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed
through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with
a mighty hand.
05:009:027 Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not
unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to
their sin:
05:009:028 Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because the
LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he promised them,
and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the
wilderness.
05:009:029 Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou
broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm.
05:010:001 At that time the LORD said unto me, Hew thee two tables of
stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, and make
thee an ark of wood.
05:010:002 And I will write on the tables the words that were in the
first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark.
05:010:003 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tables of
stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two
tables in mine hand.
05:010:004 And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing,
the ten commandments, which the LORD spake unto you in the mount out of
the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the LORD gave
them unto me.
