The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the LORD, will do for you. | 10And he said, “Behold, I am making a covenant. Before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been created in all the earth or in any nation.

| 12Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land where you are going, or they will be a snare among you. | 12Take care, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land to which you go, lest it become a snare in your midst. | 12"Watch yourself that you make no covenant with the inhabitants of the land into which you are going, or it will become a snare in your midst. | 12Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee: | 12Be careful not to make a treaty with the inhabitants of the land that you are going to enter; otherwise, they will become a snare among you. |

The Radiant Face of Moses | 29When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the LORD. | 29When Moses came down from Mount Sinai, with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand as he came down from the mountain, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because he had been talking with God. | 29It came about when Moses was coming down from Mount Sinai (and the two tablets of the testimony were in Moses' hand as he was coming down from the mountain), that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because of his speaking with Him. | 29And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him. | 29As Moses descended from Mount Sinai--with the two tablets of the testimony in his hands as he descended the mountain--he did not realize that the skin of his face shone as a result of his speaking with the LORD. |
| 30When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, his face was radiant, and they were afraid to come near him. | 30Aaron and all the people of Israel saw Moses, and behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. | 30So when Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. | 30And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him. | 30When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, the skin of his face shone! They were afraid to come near him. |
| 31But Moses called to them; so Aaron and all the leaders of the community came back to him, and he spoke to them. | 31But Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the leaders of the congregation returned to him, and Moses talked with them. | 31Then Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers in the congregation returned to him; and Moses spoke to them. | 31And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moses talked with them. | 31But Moses called out to them, so Aaron and all the leaders of the community returned to him, and Moses spoke to them. |
| 32Afterward all the Israelites came near him, and he gave them all the commands the LORD had given him on Mount Sinai. | 32Afterward all the people of Israel came near, and he commanded them all that the LORD had spoken with him in Mount Sinai. | 32Afterward all the sons of Israel came near, and he commanded them to do everything that the LORD had spoken to him on Mount Sinai. | 32And afterward all the children of Israel came nigh: and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had spoken with him in mount Sinai. | 32Afterward all the Israelites came near, and he commanded them to do everything the LORD had told him on Mount Sinai. |
| 33When Moses finished speaking to them, he put a veil over his face. | 33And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil over his face. | 33When Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil over his face. | 33And till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face. | 33When Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil over his face. |
| 34But whenever he entered the LORD's presence to speak with him, he removed the veil until he came out. And when he came out and told the Israelites what he had been commanded, | 34Whenever Moses went in before the LORD to speak with him, he would remove the veil, until he came out. And when he came out and told the people of Israel what he was commanded, | 34But whenever Moses went in before the LORD to speak with Him, he would take off the veil until he came out; and whenever he came out and spoke to the sons of Israel what he had been commanded, | 34But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak with him, he took the vail off, until he came out. And he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded. | 34But whenever Moses went before the LORD to speak with Him, he would remove the veil until he came out. After he came out, he would tell the Israelites what he had been commanded, |
| 35they saw that his face was radiant. Then Moses would put the veil back over his face until he went in to speak with the LORD. | 35the people of Israel would see the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses’ face was shining. And Moses would put the veil over his face again, until he went in to speak with him. | 35the sons of Israel would see the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone. So Moses would replace the veil over his face until he went in to speak with Him. | 35And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the vail upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him. | 35and the Israelites would see that Moses' face was radiant. Then Moses would put the veil over his face again until he went to speak with the LORD. |
