Allah said to Musa, “Chisel two stone tablets like the first: and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke. 2Be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and present yourself there to me on the top of the mountain. 3No one shall come up with you; neither let anyone be seen throughout all the mountain; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mountain.“
4He chiseled two tablets of stone like the first; and Musa rose up early in the morning, and went up to Mount Sinai, as Allah had commanded him, and took in his hand two stone tablets. 5Allah descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of Allah. 6Allah passed by before him, and proclaimed, “Allah! Allah, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth, 7keeping loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and disobedience and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the children’s children, on the third and on the fourth generation.“
8Musa hurried and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshiped. 9He said, “If now I have found favour in your sight, Lord, please let the Lord go in the midst of us; although this is a stiff-necked people; pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance.“
10He said, “Behold, I make a covenant: before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been worked in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among which you are shall see the work of Allah; for it is an awesome thing that I do with you. 11Observe that which I command you this day. Behold, I drive out before you the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite. 12Be careful, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be for a snare among you: 13but you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their Asherim; 14for you shall worship no other god: for Allah, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. 15Do not make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, lest they play the prostitute after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and one call you and you eat of his sacrifice; 16and you take of their daughters to your sons, and their daughters play the prostitute after their gods, and make your sons play the prostitute after their gods. 17You shall make no cast idols for yourselves.
18“You shall keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out from Egypt. 19All that opens the womb is mine; and all your cattle that is male, the firstborn of cow and sheep. 20The firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb: and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. No one shall appear before me empty.
21Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest. 22You shall observe the Feast of Weeks with the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the year’s end. 23Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord Allah, the God of Israel. 24For I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire your land when you go up to appear before Allah, your God, three times in the year.
25“You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the sacrifice of the Feast of the Passover be left to the morning. 26You shall bring the first of the first fruits of your ground to the house of Allah your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.“
27Allah said to Musa, “Write these words: for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.“
28He was there with Allah forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread, nor drank water. He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
29It happened, when Musa came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the testimony in Musa’s hand, when he came down from the mountain, that Musa didn’t know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him. 30When Harun and all Bani-Israel saw Musa, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him. 31Musa called to them, and Harun and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him; and Musa spoke to them. 32Afterward all Bani-Israel came near, and he gave them all of the commandments that Allah had spoken with him on Mount Sinai. 33When Musa was done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. 34But when Musa went in before Allah to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spoke to Bani-Israel that which he was commanded. 35Bani-Israel saw Musa’s face, that the skin of Musa’s face shone: and Musa put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
