Exodus 19:3-25

3. Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him out of the mountain, saying, "This is what you shall tell the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
4. 'You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings, and brought you to myself.
5. Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice, and keep my covenant, then you shall be my own possession from among all peoples; for all the earth is mine;
6. and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation.' These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel."
7. Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which the LORD commanded him.
8. All the people answered together, and said, "All that the LORD has spoken we will do."Moses reported the words of the people to The LORD.
9. The LORD said to Moses, "Behold, I come to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever." Moses told the words of the people to The LORD.
10. The LORD said to Moses, "Go to the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments,
11. and be ready against the third day; for on the third day the LORD will come down in the sight of all the people on Mount SINAI.
12. You shall set bounds to the people all around, saying, 'Be careful that you don't go up onto the mountain, or touch its border. Whoever touches the mountain shall be surely put to death.
13. No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether it is animal or man, he shall not live.' When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come up to the mountain."
14. Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
15. He said to the people, "Be ready by the third day. Don't have sexual relations with a woman."
16. On the third day, when it was morning, there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain, and the sound of an exceedingly loud trumpet; and all the people who were in the camp trembled.
17. Moses led the people out of the camp to meet God; and they stood at the lower part of the mountain.
18. All of Mount SINAI smoked, because the LORD descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.
19. When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
20. The LORD came down on Mount SINAI, to the top of the mountain. the LORD called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
21. The LORD said to Moses, "Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to the LORD to gaze, and many of them perish.
22. Let the priests also, who come near to The LORD, sanctify themselves, lest the LORD break out on them."
23. Moses said to The LORD, "The people can't come up to Mount SINAI, for you warned us, saying, 'Set bounds around the mountain, and sanctify it.'"
24. The LORD said to him, "Go down! You shall bring Aaron up with you, but don't let the priests and the people break through to come up to The LORD, lest he break out against them."
25. So Moses went down to the people, and told them.

Exodus 20:1-26

1. Go d spoke all these words, saying,
2. "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3. "You shall have no other gods before me.
4. "You shall not make for yourselves an idol, nor any image of anything that is in the heavens above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
5. you shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me,
6. and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
7. "You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
8. "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9. You shall labor six days, and do all your work,
10. but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. You shall not do any work in it, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates;
11. for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and made it holy.
12. "Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
13. "You shall not murder.
14. "You shall not commit adultery.
15. "You shall not steal.
16. "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
17. "You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's."
18. All the people perceived the thunderings, the lightnings, the sound of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking. When the people saw it, they trembled, and stayed at a distance.
19. They said to Moses, "Speak with us yourself, and we will listen; but don't let God speak with us, lest we die."
20. Moses said to the people, "Don't be afraid, for God has come to test you, and that his fear may be before you, that you won't sin."
21. The people stayed at a distance, and Moses came near to the thick darkness where God was.
22. The LORD said to Moses, "This is what you shall tell the children of Israel: 'You yourselves have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
23. You shall most certainly not make alongside of me gods of silver, or gods of gold for yourselves.
24. You shall make an altar of earth for me, and shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your cattle. In every place where I record my name I will come to you and I will bless you.
25. If you make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of cut stones; for if you lift up your tool on it, you have polluted it.
26. You shall not go up by steps to my altar, that your nakedness may not be exposed to it.'

15. Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
16. The LORD's glory settled on Mount SINAI, and the cloud covered it six days. The seventh day he called to Moses out of the middle of the cloud.
