These are the words which thou shalt speake vnto the children of Israel. 7 Moses then came & called for the Elders of the people, and proposed vnto them all these things, which the Lord commanded him. 8 And the people answered all together, and sayd, All that the Lord hath commaunded, we will doe; Moses reported the wordes of the people vnto the Lord. 9 And the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Lo, I come vnto thee in a thicke cloude, that the people may heare, whiles I talke with thee, and that they may also beleeue thee for euer. (for Moses had tolde the wordes of the people vnto the Lord) 10 Moreouer, the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Goe to the people, and sanctifie them to day and to morow, and let them wash their clothes. 11 And let them be ready on the third day: for the thirde day the Lorde will come downe in the sight of all the people vpon mount Sinai: 12 And thou shalt set markes vnto the people rounde about, saying, Take heede to your selues that ye goe not vp the mount, nor touche the border of it: whosoeuer toucheth the mount, shall surely die. 13 No hand shall touche it, but he shalbe stoned to death, or striken through with darts: whether it be beast or man, he shal not liue: when the horne bloweth long, they shal come vp into the mountaine. 14 Then Moses went downe from ye mount vnto the people, and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes. 15 And he said vnto the people, Be ready on the third day, and come not at your wiues. 16 And the thirde day, when it was morning, there was thunders and lightnings, and a thicke cloude vpon the mount, and the sounde of the trumpet exceeding loude, so that all the people, that was in the campe, was afrayde. 17 Then Moses brought the people out of the tents to meete with God, and they stoode in the nether part of the mount. 18 And mount Sinai was all on smoke, because the Lorde came downe vpon it in fire, and the smoke therof ascended, as the smoke of a fornace, and all the mount trembled exceedingly. 19 And when the sound of the trumpet blew long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by voyce. 20 (For the Lorde came downe vpon mount Sinai on the toppe of the mount) and when the Lord called Moses vp into the top of the mount, Moses went vp.
