| 0:24.9 | Exodus chapter 34, verses 4 through 10. So Moses chiseled out two stone tablets like the first ones, |
| 0:35.0 | and went up Mount Sinai early in the morning as the Lord had commanded |
| 0:40.5 | him, and he carried the two stone tablets in his hands. Then the Lord came down in the cloud |
