29 AMosesB came downC from MountD Sinai.E
As he came down from the mountain with the twoF tabletsG of the covenantH in his hand,I
Moses did not knowJ that the skinK of his faceL shoneM because he had been talkingN with God.
30 When AaronO and allP the IsraelitesQ
sawR Moses,S the skin of his face was shining, and they were afraidT to comeU near him.
31 But Moses calledV to them; and Aaron and all the leadersW of the congregationX returnedY to him, and Moses spoke with them.
32 AfterwardZ all the Israelites came near, and he gave them in commandmentAA all that the LordBB had spoken with him on Mount Sinai. 33 When Moses had finishedCC speaking with them, he putDD a veilEE on his face;
34 but whenever Moses went inFF beforeGG the Lord to speak with him, he would take the veil off,HH until he came out;II and when he came out, and told the Israelites what he had been commanded, 35 the Israelites would see the face of Moses, that the skin of his face was shining; and Moses would putJJ the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
