New International Reader's Version

Exodus 33:12-16 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

12. Moses said to the Lord, "You have been telling me, 'Lead these people.' But you haven't let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, 'I know your name. I know all about you. And I am pleased with you.'

13. If you are pleased with me, teach me more about yourself. Then I can know you. And I can continue to please you. Remember that this nation is your people."

14. The Lord replied, "I will go with you. And I will give you rest."

15. Then Moses said to him, "If you don't go with us, don't send us up from here.

16. How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and your people? You must go with us. How else will we be different from all of the other people on the face of the earth?"
