18 And the people stood afar off, but Mosheh drew nigh to the darkness where was the glory of the Lord. 19 And the Lord said to Mosheh, Thus shalt thou speak to the children of Israel; You have seen that I have spoken to you from the heavens. 20 You shall not make before Me idols of silver, neither idols of gold shall you make to you.
21 An altar of earth shalt thou make before Me, and shalt sacrifice upon it thy burnt offerings and thy sanctified victims, thy sheep and thy oxen. In every place where I may cause My Shekinah to dwell, thither will I send My blessing, and will bless thee. 22 And if thou wilt make Me an altar of stone before Me, thou shalt not build it with hewn stones lest thou lift up thy cutting-tool (lit. thy sword) upon it and profane it. 23 And thou shalt not ascend by steps to My altar, that thy nakedness may not be discerned upon it.
