18 And he sayde: I beseche thee shewe me thy glorie.

19 Who aunswered: I wyll make all my good go before thee, & I wyll call in the name of Iehouah before thee: and wyl shewe mercy to whom I wyll shewe mercy, and wyll haue compassion, on whom I wyll haue compassion.

20 And he said furthermore, Thou mayest not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and lyue.

21 And the Lorde sayd: Beholde, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stande vpon a rocke.

22 And whyle my glory goeth foorth, I wyll put thee in a clyft of the rocke, and will put my hand vpon thee, while I passe by.

23 And I wyll take away myne hande, and thou shalt see my backe partes: but my face shall not be seene.
