- 耶和华在他面前宣告说,耶和华,耶和华,是有怜悯有恩典的神,不轻易发怒,并有丰盛的慈爱和诚实。
- 为千万人存留慈爱,赦免罪孽,过犯,和罪恶,万不以有罪的为无罪,必追讨他的罪,自父及子,直到三,四代。
- 摩西急忙伏地下拜,
- 说,主阿,我若在你眼前蒙恩,求你在我们中间同行,因为这是硬着颈项的百姓。又求你赦免我们的罪孽和罪恶,以我们为你的产业。
- 耶和华说,我要立约,要在百姓面前行奇妙的事,是在遍地万国中所未曾行的。在你四围的外邦人就要看见耶和华的作为,因我向你所行的是可畏惧的事。

- And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, "The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness,
- maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation."
- Moses bowed to the ground at once and worshiped.
- "O Lord, if I have found favor in your eyes," he said, "then let the Lord go with us. Although this is a stiff-necked people, forgive our wickedness and our sin, and take us as your inheritance."
- Then the LORD said: "I am making a covenant with you. Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the LORD, will do for you.
