Exodus 19:9-16

9And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Lo, I comeH935 unto thee in a thickH5645 cloudH6051, that the peopleH5971 may hearH8085 when I speakH1696 with thee, and believeH539 thee for everH5769. And MosesH4872 toldH5046 the wordsH1697 of the peopleH5971 unto YhwhH3068.

10And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, GoH3212 unto the peopleH5971, and sanctifyH6942 them to dayH3117 and to morrowH4279, and let them washH3526 their clothesH8071, 11And be readyH3559 against the thirdH7992 dayH3117: for the thirdH7992 dayH3117 YhwhH3068 will come downH3381 in the sightH5869 of all the peopleH5971 upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514. 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.
