Deuteronomy 10:1-11 - The Covenant Renewed
1 At that time LORD said to me, Hew thee two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to me onto the mount, and make thee an ark of wood. 2 And I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets which thou broke, and thou shall put them in the ark. 3 So I made an ark of acacia wood, and hewed two tablets of stone like the first, and went up onto the mount, having the two tablets in my hand. 4 And he wrote on the tablets according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which LORD spoke to you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly, and LORD gave them to me. 5 And I turned and came down from the mount, and put the tablets in the ark which I had made. And they are there as LORD commanded me.
6 (And the sons of Israel journeyed from Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried, and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead. 7 From there they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
8 At that time LORD set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of LORD, to stand before LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day. 9 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers. LORD is his inheritance, according as LORD thy God spoke to him.)
10 And I stayed on the mount as at the first time, forty days and forty nights, and LORD hearkened to me that time also: LORD would not destroy thee. 11 And LORD said to me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, and they shall go in and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers to give to them.
