Book 02 : EXODUS - Chapter 019
019:001
For they were departed from Rephidim, and were come to the
desert of Sinai, and had pitched in the wilderness; and there
Israel camped before the mount
019:002
And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out
of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of
Jacob, and tell the children of Israel
019:003
Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you
on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself
019:004
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my
covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above
all people: for all the earth is mine
019:005
And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy
nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the
children of Israel
019:006
And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and
laid before their faces all these words which the LORD
commanded him
019:007
And all the people answered together, and said, All that the
LORD hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of
the people unto the LORD
019:008
And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick
cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and
believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people
unto the LORD
019:009
And the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify
them to day and to morrow, and let them wash their clothes
019:010
And be ready against the third day: for the third day the LORD
will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount
Sinai
019:011
And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying,
Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or
touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall be
surely put to death
019:012
There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall surely be
stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or man, it shall
not live: when the trumpet soundeth long, they shall come up
to the mount
019:013
And Moses went down from the mount unto the people, and
sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes
019:014
And he said unto the people, Be ready against the third day:
come not at your wives
019:015
And it came to pass on the third day in the morning, that
there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the
mount, and the voice of the trumpet exceeding loud; so that
all the people that was in the camp trembled
019:016
And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet
with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount
019:017
And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD
descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as
the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly
019:018
And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed
louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a
voice
019:019
And the LORD came down upon mount Sinai, on the top of the
mount: and the LORD called Moses up to the top of the mount;
and Moses went up
019:020
And the LORD said unto Moses, Go down, charge the people, lest
they break through unto the LORD to gaze, and many of them
perish
019:021
And let the priests also, which come near to the LORD,
sanctify themselves, lest the LORD break forth upon them
019:022
And Moses said unto the LORD, The people cannot come up to
mount Sinai: for thou chargedst us, saying, Set bounds about
the mount, and sanctify it
019:023
And the LORD said unto him, Away, get thee down, and thou
shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the
priests and the people break through to come up unto the LORD,
lest he break forth upon them
019:024
So Moses went down unto the people, and spake unto them
