是以上帝有言、必翦滅之、惟所選之摩西、當其衝、立其前、挽回其怒、免行翦滅兮、

於是欲加翦滅、惟有摩西、為上帝所遴選、代民祈求、爰息震怒、不殲斯族兮、

惟時主云將翦滅之、幸有主所選之摩西、立於主前、挽回主怒、不行誅戮、

“因为耶和华说要毁灭你们，我就俯伏在耶和华面前四十昼夜，

我想在他们中间寻找一位重修城墙的人，站在我面前为这地方堵住缺口，免得我毁灭这里。可是，我一个也找不到。

“耶和华又对我说，‘我已看出，这是顽固不化的百姓。不要拦我，我要毁灭他们，从世上抹去他们的名字。我要使你的子孙成为一个比他们更强大的民族。’

耶和华说：“你们在耶路撒冷街头四处看看，在广场找找，如果你们能找到一个公正诚实的人，我就赦免这城。

对可拉一伙人说：“到了明天早上，耶和华必显明谁是属于祂的，谁是圣洁的。祂必让祂所拣选的人到祂面前。

恳求你赦免他们的罪，不然请你从你的册子上抹掉我的名字吧。”

“和前一次一样，我又在山上待了四十昼夜，耶和华又听了我的祈求，答应不毁灭你们。

你不要阻止我，我要向他们发烈怒，毁灭他们。我要使你的后代成为大国。”摩西恳求他的上帝耶和华说：“耶和华啊，你为什么要向你的子民发烈怒呢？这些子民是你亲自用神迹和大能从埃及领出来的。难道你要让埃及人议论说你领他们出来是出于恶意，是为了在山野之间杀掉他们，从地上灭绝他们吗？求你息怒，施怜悯，不要降祸给你的子民。求你顾念你的仆人亚伯拉罕、以撒和以色列，你曾凭自己向他们起誓说，‘我必使你们的后代像天上的星星那么多。我应许给你们后代的这整片土地，我必赐给他们作永远的产业。’”耶和华听了摩西的话，就心生怜悯，不把所说的灾祸降在百姓身上。

祂派遣祂的仆人摩西和祂拣选的亚伦，

没有上去堵住缺口，也没有重建以色列的围墙，使以色列在耶和华的日子来临时的争战中坚立。

“‘然而，他们却背叛我，不听我的话，没有除去他们祭拜的可憎之物和埃及的偶像。我本想在埃及向他们发烈怒，倾倒我的怒火，

如果你们属于这个世界，世人一定会爱你们。可是你们不属于这世界，我已经把你们拣选出来，因此世人恨你们。

所以你们要彼此认罪，互相代祷，好得到医治。义人的祷告有极大的力量和功效。

“看啊！我所拣选、所眷爱、所喜悦的仆人，我要将我的灵赐给祂，祂要向万邦宣扬正义。

耶和华向你们发烈怒，要毁灭你们，我非常惧怕。但耶和华再次垂听了我的祈求。

不是你们拣选了我，而是我拣选了你们，并且派你们出去结永存的果子。这样，你们奉我的名无论向父求什么，祂都会赐给你们。

“‘可是，以色列人却在旷野背叛我，不遵行我的律例和典章——遵行的人必活着，大肆亵渎我的安息日。我本想在旷野向他们发烈怒，灭绝他们。但我没有这样做，以免我的名在周围列邦面前被亵渎，因为列邦亲眼看见我向以色列人显现，把他们带出埃及。
