¹ God spoke all these words: ² 

The Lord said to Moses, “Write down ¹  these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.”

When the people heard this troubling word ¹  they mourned; ²  no one put on his ornaments.

Moses came ¹  and told the people all the Lord’s words ²  and all the decisions. All the people answered together, ³  “We are willing to do ⁴  all the words that the Lord has said,”

Make the work harder ¹  for the men so they will keep at it ²  and pay no attention to lying words!” ³ 

but those ¹  who did not take ²  the word of the Lord seriously left their servants and their cattle ³  in the field.

So Moses came and summoned the elders of Israel. He set before them all these words that the Lord had commanded him,

“You must not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds those who see ¹  and subverts the words of the righteous.

Aaron spoke ¹  all the words that the Lord had spoken to Moses and did the signs in the sight of the people,

Those ¹  of Pharaoh’s servants who feared the word of the Lord hurried to bring their ²  servants and livestock into the houses,

and you will be to me ¹  a kingdom of priests ²  and a holy nation.’ ³  These are the words that you will speak to the Israelites.”

Moses told Aaron all the words of the Lord who had ¹  sent him and all the signs that he had commanded him.

and all the people answered together, “All that the Lord has commanded we will do!” ¹  So Moses brought the words of the people back to the Lord.

¹ Moses spoke to the whole community of the Israelites, “This is the word that the Lord has commanded:

“So you are to speak to him and put the words in his mouth. And as for me, I will be with your mouth ¹  and with his mouth, ²  and I will teach you both ³  what you must do. ⁴ 

¹ The Lord said to Moses, “Cut out ²  two tablets of stone like the first, and I will write ³  on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you smashed.

So he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; ¹  he did not eat bread, and he did not drink water. He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments. ² 

So Moses took the blood and splashed it on ¹  the people and said, “This is the blood of the covenant ²  that the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words.”

and Moses wrote down all the words of the Lord. Early in the morning he built ¹  an altar at the foot ²  of the mountain and arranged ³  twelve standing stones ⁴  – according to the twelve tribes of Israel.

The Lord said to Moses, “I am going to come ¹  to you in a dense cloud, ²  so that the people may hear when I speak with you and so that they will always believe in you.” ³  And Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
