Deuteronomy 10:1-11

The Second Tablets of Stone

10¹ 'At that time hath Jehovah said unto me, Grave for thee two tables of stone, like the first, and come up unto Me, into the mount, and thou hast made for thee an ark of wood, ² and I write on the tables the words which were on the first tables, which thou hast broken, and thou hast placed them in the ark; ³ and I make an ark of shittim wood, and grave two tables of stone like the first, and go up to the mount, and the two tables in my hand. ⁴ 'And He writeth on the tables, according to the first writing, the Ten Matters, which Jehovah hath spoken unto you in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, in the day of the assembly, and Jehovah giveth them unto me, ⁵ and I turn and come down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made, and they are there, as Jehovah commanded me. ⁶ 'And the sons of Israel have journeyed from Beeroth of the sons of Jaakan to Mosera, there Aaron died, and he is buried there, and Eleazar his son doth act as priest in his stead; ⁷ thence they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water. ⁸ 'At that time hath Jehovah separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah, to serve Him, and to bless in His name, unto this day, ⁹ therefore there hath not been to Levi a portion and inheritance with his brethren; Jehovah Himself 'is' his inheritance, as Jehovah thy God hath spoken to him. ¹⁰ 'And I—I have stood in the mount, as the former days, forty days and forty nights, and Jehovah hearkeneth unto me also at that time; Jehovah hath not willed to destroy thee. ¹¹ 'And Jehovah saith unto me, Rise, go to journey before the people, and they go in and possess the land which I have sworn to their fathers to give to them.
