Exodus 24:12-18

12 ADONAI said to Moshe, "Come up to me on the mountain, and stay there. I will give you the stone tablets with the Torah and the mitzvot I have written on them, so that you can teach them."

13 Moshe got up, also Y'hoshua his assistant; and Moshe went up onto the mountain of God.

14 To the leaders he said, "Stay here for us, until we come back to you. See, Aharon and Hur are with you; whoever has a problem should turn to them."(S: Maftir)

15 Moshe went up onto the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. (A: Maftir)

16 The glory of ADONAI stayed on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day he called to Moshe out of the cloud.

17 To the people of Isra'el the glory of ADONAI looked like a raging fire on the top of the mountain.

18 Moshe entered the cloud and went up on the mountain; he was on the mountain forty days and nights.

Exodus 31:18

18 When he had finished speaking with Moshe on Mount Sinai, ADONAI gave him the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.
