Exodus 19

1In the thirdH7992 monthH2320, when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 had gone forthH3318 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714, the same dayH3117 they cameH935 into the wildernessH4057 of SinaiH5514. 2For they had departedH5265 from RephidimH7508, and had comeH935 to the desertH4057 of SinaiH5514, and had pitchedH2583 in the wildernessH4057; and there IsraelH3478 encampedH2583 before the mountH2022. 3And MosesH4872 went upH5927 to GodH430, and the LORDH3068 calledH7121 to him from the mountainH2022, sayingH559, Thus shalt thou sayH559 to the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and tellH5046 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478; 4Ye have seenH7200 what I didH6213 to the EgyptiansH4714, and how I boreH5375 you on eaglesH5404’ wingsH3671, and broughtH935 you to myself. 5Now therefore, if ye will obeyH8085 my voiceH6963 indeedH8085, and keepH8104 my covenantH1285, then ye shall be a special treasureH5459 to me above all peopleH5971: for all the earthH776 is mine: 6And ye shall be to me a kingdomH4467 of priestsH3548, and an holyH6918 nationH1471. These are the wordsH1697 which thou shalt speakH1696 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. 7And MosesH4872 cameH935 and calledH7121 for the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and laidH7760 before their facesH6440 all these wordsH1697 which the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 him. 8And all the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 togetherH3162, and saidH559, All that the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 we will doH6213. And MosesH4872 returnedH7725 the wordsH1697 of the peopleH5971 to the LORDH3068.

9And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, Lo, I comeH935 to 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 to the LORDH3068. 10And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, GoH3212 to the peopleH5971, and sanctifyH6942 them to dayH3117 and to morrowH4279, and let them washH3526 their clothesH8071, 11And be readyH3559 for the thirdH7992 dayH3117: for on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 the LORDH3068 will come downH3381 in the sightH5869 of all the peopleH5971 upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514. 12And thou shalt set boundsH1379 to the peopleH5971 all aroundH5439, sayingH559, Take heedH8104 to yourselves, that ye go not upH5927 upon the mountH2022, or touchH5060 the borderH7097 of it: whoever 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 to the peopleH5971, and sanctifiedH6942 the peopleH5971; and they washedH3526 their clothesH8071. 15And he saidH559 to the peopleH5971, BeH1961 readyH3559 for 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 were in the campH4264 trembledH2729. 17And MosesH4872 brought forthH3318 the peopleH5971 out of the campH4264 to meetH7125 with GodH430; and they stoodH3320 at the lowerH8482 part of the mountH2022. 18And mountH2022 SinaiH5514 was altogether in a smokeH6225, becauseH6440H834 the LORDH3068 descendedH3381 upon it in fireH784: and the smokeH6227 of it ascendedH5927 as the smokeH6227 of a furnaceH3536, and the whole mountH2022 trembledH2729 greatlyH3966. 19And when the voiceH6963 of the trumpetH7782 soundedH6963 longH1980, and grew louderH2390 and louderH3966, MosesH4872 spokeH1696, and GodH430 answeredH6030 him by a voiceH6963. 20And the LORDH3068 came downH3381 upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514, on the topH7218 of the mountH2022: and the LORDH3068 calledH7121 MosesH4872 toH413 the topH7218 of the mountH2022; and MosesH4872 went upH5927. 21And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, Go downH3381, chargeH5749 the peopleH5971, lest they break throughH2040 to the LORDH3068 to gazeH7200, and manyH7227 of them perishH5307.2 22And let the priestsH3548 also, who come nearH5066 to the LORDH3068, sanctifyH6942 themselves, lest the LORDH3068 break forthH6555 upon them. 23And MosesH4872 saidH559 to the LORDH3068, The peopleH5971 cannotH3201 come upH5927 to mountH2022 SinaiH5514: for thou didst chargeH5749 us, sayingH559, Set boundsH1379 about the mountH2022, and sanctifyH6942 it. 24And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to him, AwayH3212, go downH3381, and thou shalt come upH5927, thou, and AaronH175 with thee: but let not the priestsH3548 and the peopleH5971 break throughH2040 to come upH5927 to the LORDH3068, lest he break forthH6555 upon them. 25So MosesH4872 went downH3381 to the peopleH5971, and spokeH559 to them.
