19:1 On
the
third
new
moon
after
the
people
of
Israel
had
gone
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt,
on
that
day
they
came
into
the
wilderness
of
Sinai.
19:2 They
set
out
from
Rephidim
and
came
into
the
wilderness
of
Sinai,
and
they
encamped
in
the
wilderness.
There
Israel
encamped
before
the
mountain,
19:3 while
Moses
went
up
to
God.
The
LORD
called
to
him
out
of
the
mountain,
saying,
"Thus
you
shall
say
to
the
house
of
Jacob,
and
tell
the
people
of
Israel:
19:4 You
yourselves
have
seen
what
I
did
to
the
Egyptians,
and
how
I
bore
you
on
eagles'
wings
and
brought
you
to
myself.
19:5 Now
therefore,
if
you
will
indeed
obey
my
voice
and
keep
my
covenant,
you
shall
be
my
treasured
possession
among
all
peoples,
for
all
the
earth
is
mine;
19:6 and
you
shall
be
to
me
a
kingdom
of
priests
and
a
holy
nation.
These
are
the
words
that
you
shall
speak
to
the
people
of
Israel."
19:7 So
Moses
came
and
called
the
elders
of
the
people
and
set
before
them
all
these
words
that
the
LORD
had
commanded
him.
19:8 All
the
people
answered
together
and
said,
"All
that
the
LORD
has
spoken
we
will
do."
And
Moses
reported
the
words
of
the
people
to
the
LORD.
19:9 And
the
LORD
said
to
Moses,
"Behold,
I
am
coming
to
you
in
a
thick
cloud,
that
the
people
may
hear
when
I
speak
with
you,
and
may
also
believe
you
forever."
When
Moses
told
the
words
of
the
people
to
the
LORD,
19:10 the
LORD
said
to
Moses,
"Go
to
the
people
and
consecrate
them
today
and
tomorrow,
and
let
them
wash
their
garments
19:11 and
be
ready
for
the
third
day.
For
on
the
third
day
the
LORD
will
come
down
on
Mount
Sinai
in
the
sight
of
all
the
people.
19:12 And
you
shall
set
limits
for
the
people
all
around,
saying,
'Take
care
not
to
go
up
into
the
mountain
or
touch
the
edge
of
it.
Whoever
touches
the
mountain
shall
be
put
to
death.
19:13 No
hand
shall
touch
him,
but
he
shall
be
stoned
or
shot;
whether
beast
or
man,
he
shall
not
live.'
When
the
trumpet
sounds
a
long
blast,
they
shall
come
up
to
the
mountain."
19:14 So
Moses
went
down
from
the
mountain
to
the
people
and
consecrated
the
people;
and
they
washed
their
garments.
19:15 And
he
said
to
the
people,
"Be
ready
for
the
third
day;
do
not
go
near
a
woman."
19:16 On
the
morning
of
the
third
day
there
were
thunders
and
lightnings
and
a
thick
cloud
on
the
mountain
and
a
very
loud
trumpet
blast,
so
that
all
the
people
in
the
camp
trembled.
19:17 Then
Moses
brought
the
people
out
of
the
camp
to
meet
God,
and
they
took
their
stand
at
the
foot
of
the
mountain.
19:18 Now
Mount
Sinai
was
wrapped
in
smoke
because
the
LORD
had
descended
on
it
in
fire.
The
smoke
of
it
went
up
like
the
smoke
of
a
kiln,
and
the
whole
mountain
trembled
greatly.
19:19 And
as
the
sound
of
the
trumpet
grew
louder
and
louder,
Moses
spoke,
and
God
answered
him
in
thunder.
19:20 The
LORD
came
down
on
Mount
Sinai,
to
the
top
of
the
mountain.
And
the
LORD
called
Moses
to
the
top
of
the
mountain,
and
Moses
went
up.
19:21 And
the
LORD
said
to
Moses,
"Go
down
and
warn
the
people,
lest
they
break
through
to
the
LORD
to
look
and
many
of
them
perish.
19:22 Also
let
the
priests
who
come
near
to
the
LORD
consecrate
themselves,
lest
the
LORD
break
out
against
them."
19:23 And
Moses
said
to
the
LORD,
"The
people
cannot
come
up
to
Mount
Sinai,
for
you
yourself
warned
us,
saying,
'Set
limits
around
the
mountain
and
consecrate
it.'"
19:24 And
the
LORD
said
to
him,
"Go
down,
and
come
up
bringing
Aaron
with
you.
But
do
not
let
the
priests
and
the
people
break
through
to
come
up
to
the
LORD,
lest
he
break
out
against
them."
19:25 So
Moses
went
down
to
the
people
and
told
them.
