23:29 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the
land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee.
23:30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until
thou be increased, and inherit the land.
23:31 And I will set thy bounds from the Red sea even unto the sea of
the Philistines, and from the desert unto the river: for I will deliver
the inhabitants of the land into your hand; and thou shalt drive them
out before thee.
23:32 Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
23:33 They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against
me: for if thou serve their gods, it will surely be a snare unto thee.
24:1 And he said unto Moses, Come up unto the LORD, thou, and Aaron,
Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye
afar off.
24:2 And Moses alone shall come near the LORD: but they shall not come
nigh; neither shall the people go up with him.
24:3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and
all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said,
All the words which the LORD hath said will we do.
24:4 And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the
morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars,
according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
24:5 And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered
burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD.
24:6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of
the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
24:7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of
the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and
be obedient.
24:8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said,
Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you
concerning all these words.
24:9 Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the
elders of Israel:
24:10 And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it
were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven
in his clearness.
24:11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his
hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.
24:12 And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be
there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments
which I have written; that thou mayest teach them.
24:13 And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into
the mount of God.
24:14 And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come
again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have
any matters to do, let him come unto them.
24:15 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
