Deuteronomy 9:6-11

Deuteronomy 9:6-11 NCV

The LORD your God is giving you this good land to take as your own. But know this: It is not because you are good; you are a stubborn people. Remember this and do not forget it: You made the LORD your God angry in the desert. You would not obey the LORD from the day you left Egypt until you arrived here. At Mount Sinai you made the LORD angry—angry enough to destroy you. When I went up on the mountain to receive the stone tablets, the tablets with the Agreement the LORD had made with you, I stayed on the mountain for forty days and forty nights; I did not eat bread or drink water. The LORD gave me two stone tablets, which God had written on with his own finger. On them were all the commands that the LORD gave to you on the mountain out of the fire, on the day you were gathered there. When the forty days and forty nights were over, the LORD gave me the two stone tablets, the tablets with the Agreement on them.
