And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD.

He said, "Go outside, and stand on the mountain before ADONAI"; and right then and there, ADONAI went past.

Then the LORD said, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the LORD.

After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake.
