Then he arose early in the morning, and built an ^(C)altar ^[b]at the foot of the mountain with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel. ⁵ He sent young men of the sons of Israel, ^(D)and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to the Lord. ^6 (E)Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and the other half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar. ⁷ Then he took ^(F)the book of the covenant and read it in the hearing of the people; and they said, “^(G)All that the Lord has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient!” ⁸ So ^(H)Moses took the blood and sprinkled it on the people, and said, “Behold ^(I)the blood of the covenant, which the Lord has ^[c]made with you ^[d]in accordance with all these words.”

³² not like the ^(A)covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I ^(B)took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My ^(C)covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them,” declares the Lord.
