18. Then he said, “Please, show me Your glory!”
19. So He said, “I will cause all My goodness to pass before you, and call out the Name of Adonai before you. I will be gracious toward whom I will be gracious, and I will show mercy on whom I will be merciful.”
20. But He also said, “You cannot see My face, for no man can see Me and live.”
21. Then Adonai said, “See, a place near Me—you will stand on the rock.
22. While My glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and cover you with My hand, until I have passed by.
23. Then I will take away My hand, and you will see My back, but My face will not be seen.”
