23:20 Reasons for Loyal Obedience “‘Look, I am about to send an angel before you to guard you on the way and to bring you to the place that I have prepared.
23:21 Be attentive to him and listen to his voice; do not rebel against him, because he will not forgive your transgression, for my name is in him.
23:22 But if you listen attentively to his voice and do all that I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and a foe to your foes.
23:23 When my angel goes before you and brings you to the Amorites and the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Canaanites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, I will wipe them out.
23:24 “‘You will not bow to their gods, and you will not serve them, and you will not act according to their actions, because you will utterly demolish them, and you will utterly break their stone pillars.
23:25 And you will serve Yahweh your God, and he will bless your bread and your water, and I will remove sickness from among you.
23:26 There will be no one suffering miscarriage or infertile in your land. I will make full the number of your days.
23:27 “‘I will release my terror before you, and I will throw into confusion all the people against whom you come, and I will make all your enemies turn their back to you.
23:28 And I will send the hornet before you, and it will drive out the Hivites, the Canaanites, and the Hittites from before you.
23:29 I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become a desolation and the wild animals multiply against you.
23:30 Little by little I will drive them out from before you until you are fruitful and take possession of the land.
23:31 “‘And I will set your boundary from the Red Sea and up to the sea of the Philistines and from the desert up to the river, because I will give the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you will drive them out from before you.
23:32 You will not make a covenant with them and with their gods.
23:33 They will not live in your land, lest they cause you to sin against me when you serve their gods, for it will be a snare to you.’”
24:1 Confirming the Covenant And to Moses he said, “Go up to Yahweh—you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy from the elders of Israel—and you will worship at a distance.
24:2 And Moses alone will come near to Yahweh, and they will not come near, and the people will not go up with him.”
24:3 And Moses came, and he told the people all the words of Yahweh and all the regulations. And all the people answered with one voice, and they said, “All the words that Yahweh has spoken we will do.”
24:4 And Moses wrote all the words of Yahweh, and he rose early in the morning, and he built an altar at the base of the mountain and set up twelve memorial stones for the twelve tribes of Israel.
24:5 And he sent young men from the Israelites, and they offered burnt offerings, and they sacrificed sacrifices as fellowship offerings to Yahweh using bulls.
24:6 And Moses took half of the blood, and he put it in bowls, and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
24:7 And he took the scroll of the covenant and read it in the hearing of the people, and they said, “All that Yahweh has spoken we will do, and we will listen.”
24:8 And Moses took the blood and sprinkled it on the people, and he said, “Look, the blood of the covenant that Yahweh has made with you in accordance with all these words.”
24:9 And Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy from the elders of Israel went up.
24:10 And they saw the God of Israel, and what was under his feet was like sapphire tile work and like the very heavens for clearness.
24:11 And toward the leaders of the Israelites he did not stretch out his hand, and they beheld God, and they ate, and they drank.
24:12 The Start of Forty Days and Nights on Mount Sinai And Yahweh said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain, and be there, and I will give you the tablets of stone and the law and the commandments that I have written to instruct them.”
24:13 And Moses got up, and Joshua, his assistant, and Moses went up to the mountain of God.
24:14 And to the elders he said, “Wait for us here until we return to you. And look, Aaron and Hur are with you. Whoever has a dispute will bring it to you.”
24:15 And Moses went up to the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
24:16 And the glory of Yahweh settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days, and he called to Moses on the seventh day from the midst of the cloud.
24:17 And the appearance of the glory of Yahweh was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain to the eyes of the Israelites.
24:18 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and he went up the mountain, and Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.

LEB translation

Mark 9:30 - 9:32

9:30 Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection a Second Time And from there they went out and passed through Galilee. And he did not want anyone to know,
9:31 for he was teaching his disciples and was telling them, “The Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of men, and they will kill him. And when he is killed, after three days he will rise.”
9:32 But they did not understand the statement, and they were afraid to ask him.
9:33 The Question About Who Is Greatest And they came to Capernaum. And after he was in the house, he asked them, “What were you discussing on the way?”
9:34 But they were silent, because they had argued with one another on the way about who was greatest.
9:35 And he sat down and called the twelve and said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, he will be last of all and servant of all.”
9:36 And he took a young child and had him stand among them. And taking him in his arms, he said to them,
9:37 “Whoever welcomes one of the young children such as these in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me, but the one who sent me.”
9:38 Whoever Is Not Against Us Is for Us John said to him, “Teacher, we saw someone expelling demons in your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.”
9:39 But Jesus said, “Do not prevent him, because there is no one who does a miracle in my name and will be able soon afterward to speak evil of me.
9:40 For whoever is not against us is for us.
9:41 For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in my name because you are Christ’s, truly I say to you that he will never lose his reward.
