Now the appearance of the glory of the <sc>Lordsc> was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in plain view<n id="1" /> of the people.

Aaron spoke<n id="1" /> all the words that the <sc>Lordsc> had spoken to Moses and did the signs in the sight of the people,

<t /><n id="1" /><p class="bodytext">Then the <sc>Lordsc> said to Moses and Aaron, &#8220;Take handfuls of soot<n id="2" /> from a furnace, and have Moses throw it<n id="3" /> into the air while Pharaoh is watching.<n id="4" />

and be ready for the third day, for on the third day the <sc>Lordsc> will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.

For the cloud of the <sc>Lordsc> was on the tabernacle by day, but fire would be<n id="1" /> on it at night, in plain view<n id="2" /> of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.p>

Moses and Aaron did so,<n id="1" /> just as the <sc>Lordsc> had commanded. Moses raised<n id="2" /> the staff<n id="3" /> and struck the water that was in the Nile right before the eyes<n id="4" /> of Pharaoh and his servants,<n id="5" /> and all the water that was in the Nile was turned to blood.<n id="6" />

I will be standing<n id="1" /> before you there on<n id="2" /> the rock in Horeb, and you will strike<n id="3" /> the rock, and water will come out of it so that the people may drink.&#8221;<n id="4" /> And Moses did so in plain view<n id="5" /> of the elders of Israel.p>
