Exodus 19:1
|
|
In the third month after the children of Israel
were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they into the wilderness
of Sinai. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:2 |
|
And when they were departed from Rephidim, and
were come to the wilderness of Sinai, they encamped in the wilderness; and there
Israel encamped before the mount. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 19:3 |
|
And Moses went up unto God, and Jehovah called
unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob,
and tell the children of Israel: |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 19:4 |
|
Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians,
and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 19:5 |
|
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed,
and keep my covenant, then ye shall be mine own possession from among all peoples:
for all the earth is mine: |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 19:6 |
|
and ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests,
and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children
of Israel. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 19:7 |
|
And Moses came and called for the elders of
the people, and set before them all these words which Jehovah commanded him. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:8 |
|
And all the people answered together, and said,
All that Jehovah hath spoken we will do. And Moses reported the words of the people
unto Jehovah. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:9 |
|
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto
thee in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and may
also believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people unto Jehovah.
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:10 |
|
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Go unto the people,
and sanctify them to-day and to-morrow, and let them wash their garments, |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:11 |
|
and be ready against the third day; for the
third day Jehovah will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:12 |
|
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: |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:13 |
|
no hand shall touch him, but he shall surely
be stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or man, he shall not live: when
the trumpet soundeth long, they shall come up to the mount. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:14 |
|
And Moses went down from the mount unto the
people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their garments. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:15 |
|
And he said unto the people, Be ready against
the third day: come not near a woman. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:16 |
|
And it came to pass on the third day, when it
was morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the
mount, and the voice of a trumpet exceeding loud; and all the people that were
in the camp trembled. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:17 |
|
And Moses brought forth the people out of the
camp to meet God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:18 |
|
And mount Sinai, the whole of it, smoked, because
Jehovah descended upon it in fire; and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke
of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:19 |
|
And when the voice of the trumpet waxed louder
and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 19:20 |
|
And Jehovah came down upon mount Sinai, to the
top of the mount: and Jehovah called Moses to the top of the mount; and Moses
went up. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 19:21 |
|
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Go down, charge
the people, lest they break through unto Jehovah to gaze, and many of them perish.
|
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:22 |
|
And let the priests also, that come near to
Jehovah, sanctify themselves, lest Jehovah break forth upon them. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:23 |
|
And Moses said unto Jehovah, The people cannot
come up to mount Sinai: for thou didst charge us, saying, Set bounds about the
mount, and sanctify it. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:24 |
|
And Jehovah said unto him, Go, 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 Jehovah, lest he break forth upon them.
|
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 19:25 |
|
So Moses went down unto the people, and told
them. |
