Exodus 34:29-35 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand… With much pathos Mr. Varley once told the story of Sybil, a negress slave, whose mistress said to her: "When I heard you singing on the house-top I thought you fanatical, but when I saw your beaming face I could not help feeling how different you were to me." Sybil answered, "Ah, missus, the light you saw in my face was not from me, it all came 'fleeted from de cross, and there is heaps more for every poor sinner who will come near enough to catch de rays." Parallel Verses KJV: And 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. |
