Exodus 33:15-17
Living Bible
15 For Moses had said, “If you aren’t going with us, don’t let us move a step from this place. 16 If you don’t go with us, who will ever know that I and my people have found favor with you, and that we are different from any other people upon the face of the earth?”
17 And the Lord had replied to Moses, “Yes, I will do what you have asked, for you have certainly found favor with me, and you are my friend.”[a]

15 Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence(A) does not go with us, do not send us up from here. 16 How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us?(B) What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?”(C)
17 And the Lord said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked,(D) because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.”(E)
