18 Then he said, I beseech thee, show me thy glory.
19 And he replied, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name that I AM before thee; and I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy and will show clemency on whom I will show clemency.
20 He further said, Thou canst not see my face; for no man shall see me and live.
21 And the Lord continued saying, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon the rock;
22 and it shall come to pass while my glory passes by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock and will cover thee with my hand until I have passed by.
23 Then I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see my back parts, but my face {Heb. faces} shall not be seen.
