Exodus 19:12-19
12And thou shalt set boundsH1379 unto the peopleH5971 round aboutH5439, sayingH559, Take heedH8104 to yourselves, that ye go not upH5927 into the mountH2022, or touchH5060 the borderH7097 of it: whosoever touchethH5060 the mountH2022 shall be surelyH4191 put to deathH4191: 13There shall not an handH3027 touchH5060 it, but he shall surelyH5619 be stonedH5619, orH176 shotH3384 throughH3384; whether it be beastH929 orH518 manH376, it shall not liveH2421: when the trumpetH3104 soundeth longH4900, they shall come upH5927 to the mountH2022.1
14And MosesH4872 went downH3381 from the mountH2022 unto the peopleH5971, and sanctifiedH6942 the peopleH5971; and they washedH3526 their clothesH8071. 15And he saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, BeH1961 readyH3559 against the thirdH7969 dayH3117: comeH5066 not at your wivesH802.
16And it came to pass on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 in the morningH1242, that there were thundersH6963 and lightningsH1300, and a thickH3515 cloudH6051 upon the mountH2022, and the voiceH6963 of the trumpetH7782 exceedingH3966 loudH2389; so that all the peopleH5971 that was in the campH4264 trembledH2729. 17And MosesH4872 brought forthH3318 the peopleH5971 out of the campH4264 to meetH7125 with GodH430; and they stoodH3320 at the netherH8482 part of the mountH2022. 18And mountH2022 SinaiH5514 was altogether on a smokeH6225, becauseH834H6440 YhwhH3068 descendedH3381 upon it in fireH784: and the smokeH6227 thereof ascendedH5927 as the smokeH6227 of a furnaceH3536, and the whole mountH2022 quakedH2729 greatlyH3966. 19And when the voiceH6963 of the trumpetH7782 soundedH6963 longH1980, and waxed louderH2390 and louderH3966, MosesH4872 spakeH1696, and GodH430 answeredH6030 him by a voiceH6963.
