Deuteronomy 5:22-26

22These are the commandments the Lord spoke to your whole assembly on the mountain. He spoke in a loud voice from the fire, the cloud, and the gloomy darkness. Then he stopped speaking. He wrote the commandments on two stone tablets and gave them to me.

23But when you heard the voice coming from the darkness and saw the mountain blazing with fire, all the leaders and heads of your tribes came to me.

24You said, “The Lord our God has let us see how great and glorious he is. We’ve heard his voice come from the fire. Today we’ve seen that people can live even if God speaks to them.

25Why should we die? This great fire will consume us! If we continue to hear the voice of the Lord our God, we’ll die!

26Who has ever heard the voice of the living God speak from a fire, as we did, and lived?
