The New Stone Tablets

34 The Lord said to Moses, “Chisel out two stone tablets like the first ones,^(A) and I will write on them the words that were on the first tablets,^(B) which you broke.^(C)

¹⁸ When the Lord finished speaking to Moses on Mount Sinai,^(A) he gave him the two tablets of the covenant law, the tablets of stone^(B) inscribed by the finger of God.^(C)

¹⁶ The tablets were the work of God; the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.^(A)

¹³ He declared to you his covenant,^(A) the Ten Commandments,^(B) which he commanded you to follow and then wrote them on two stone tablets.

² I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke. Then you are to put them in the ark.”^(A)

⁴ The Lord wrote on these tablets what he had written before, the Ten Commandments^(A) he had proclaimed^(B) to you on the mountain, out of the fire, on the day of the assembly.^(C) And the Lord gave them to me.
