Moses Pleads for God's Presence

12

Then Moses said to the LORD, “Look, You have been telling me, ‘Lead this people up,’ but You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have found favor in My sight.’

13

Now if indeed I have found favor in Your sight, please let me know Your ways, that I may know You and find favor in Your sight. Remember that this nation is Your people.”

14

And the LORD answered, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

15

“If Your Presence does not go with us,” Moses replied, “do not lead us up from here.

16

For how then can it be known that Your people and I have found favor in Your sight, unless You go with us? How else will we be distinguished from all the other people on the face of the earth?”

17

So the LORD said to Moses, “I will do this very thing you have asked, for you have found favor in My sight, and I know you by name.”
