Exodus 19:16-24

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. 20And YhwhH3068 came downH3381 upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514, on the topH7218 of the mountH2022: And YhwhH3068 calledH7121 MosesH4872 up toH413 the topH7218 of the mountH2022; and MosesH4872 went upH5927. 21And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Go downH3381, chargeH5749 the peopleH5971, lest they break throughH2040 unto YhwhH3068 to gazeH7200, and manyH7227 of them perishH5307.1 22And let the priestsH3548 also, which come nearH5066 to YhwhH3068, sanctifyH6942 themselves, lest YhwhH3068 break forthH6555 upon them. 23And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto YhwhH3068, The peopleH5971 cannotH3201 come upH5927 to mountH2022 SinaiH5514: for thou chargedstH5749 us, sayingH559, Set boundsH1379 about the mountH2022, and sanctifyH6942 it. 24And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto him, AwayH3212, get thee downH3381, and thou shalt come upH5927, thou, and AaronH175 with thee: but let not the priestsH3548 and the peopleH5971 break throughH2040 to come upH5927 unto YhwhH3068, lest he break forthH6555 upon them.
