Deuteronomy 5:25-33

251Now then, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us; if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any longer, then we will die! 26For 2who is there of 3humanity who has heard the voice of the living God speaking from the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived? 274Go near and listen to everything that the Lord our God says; then speak to us everything that the Lord our God speaks to you, and we will listen and do it.’

28“Now the Lord heard the sound of your words when you spoke to me, 5and the Lord said to me, ‘I have heard the sound of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. They have done well in all that they have spoken. 296If only they had such a heart in them, to fear Me and 7keep all My commandments always, so that 8it would go well with them and with their sons forever! 30Go, say to them, “Return to your tents.” 319But as for you, stand here by Me, that I may speak to you all the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments which you shall teach them, so that they may 10follow them in the land which I am giving them to possess.’ 32So you shall be careful to do just as the Lord your God has commanded you; 11you shall not turn aside to the right or to the left. 3312You shall walk 13entirely in the way which the Lord your God has commanded you, 14so that you may live and that it may be well for you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you will possess.
