Exodus 19:1-9

1In the thirdH7992 monthH2320 after the children of IsraelH3478 were goneH3318 forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, the same dayH3117 cameH935 they into the wildernessH4057 of SinaiH5514. 2And when they were departedH5265 from RephidimH7508, and were comeH935 to the wildernessH4057 of SinaiH5514, they encampedH2583 in the wildernessH4057; and there IsraelH3478 encampedH2583 before the mount. 3And MosesH4872 wentH5927 up unto GodH430, and Jehovah calledH7121 unto him out of the mountainH2022, sayingH559, ThusH3541 shalt thou sayH559 to the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and tellH5046 the children of IsraelH3478: 4Ye have seenH7200 what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles’H5404 wingsH3671, and broughtH935 you unto myself. 5NowH6258 thereforeH6258, if ye will obey my voiceH6963 indeed, and keepH8104 my covenantH1285, then ye shall beH1961 mine own possessionH5459 from among all peoplesH5971: for all the earthH776 is mine: 6and ye shall beH1961 unto me a kingdomH4467 of priestsH3548, and a holyH6918 nationH1471. These are the wordsH1697 which thou shalt speakH1696 unto the children of IsraelH3478.

7And MosesH4872 cameH935 and calledH7121 for the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and setH7760 before them all these wordsH1697 which Jehovah commandedH6680 him. 8And all the peopleH5971 answered togetherH3162, and saidH559, All that Jehovah hath spokenH1696 we will do. And MosesH4872 reported the wordsH1697 of the peopleH5971 unto Jehovah. 9And Jehovah saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Lo, I comeH935 unto thee in a thick cloudH6051, that the peopleH5971 may hearH8085 when I speakH1696 with thee, and may alsoH1571 believeH539 thee for everH5769. And MosesH4872 toldH5046 the wordsH1697 of the peopleH5971 unto Jehovah.
