New King James Version

Exodus 33:18-23 New King James Version (NKJV)

18. And he said, “Please, show me Your glory.”

19. Then He said, “I will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.”

20. But He said, “You cannot see My face; for no man shall see Me, and live.”

21. And the Lord said, “Here is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock.

22. So it shall be, while My glory passes by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock, and will cover you with My hand while I pass by.

23. Then I will take away My hand, and you shall see My back; but My face shall not be seen.”
