28 And he continued there with Jehovah forty days and forty nights. He ate no bread and he drank no water.+ And he* proceeded to write upon the tablets the words of the covenant, the Ten Words.*+
9 When I went up the mountain to receive the stone tablets,+ the tablets of the covenant that Jehovah had concluded with YOU,+ and I kept dwelling in the mountain forty days and forty nights,+ (I neither ate bread nor drank water,)
8 So he rose up and ate and drank, and he kept going in the power of that nourishment for forty days+ and forty nights as far as the mountain of the [true] God, Hoʹreb.+
