1. He said to Moses, “Come up to the Lord, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship from a distance.
2. Moses alone shall come near to the Lord, but they shall not come near. The people shall not go up with him.”
3. Moses came and told the people all the Lord’s words, and all the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, and said, “All the words which the Lord has spoken will we do.”
4. Moses wrote all the Lord’s words, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the mountain, and twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel.
5. He sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of cattle to the Lord.
6. Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
