02_EXO_19_01 In the third month, when the children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they [into] the wilderness of Sinai.

02_EXO_19_02 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.

02_EXO_19_03 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;

02_EXO_19_04 Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and [how] I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself.

02_EXO_19_05 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:

02_EXO_19_06 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.

02_EXO_19_07 And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces all these words which the LORD commanded him.

02_EXO_19_08 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.

02_EXO_19_09 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.

02_EXO_19_10 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify them to day and to morrow, and let them wash their clothes,

02_EXO_19_11 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.

02_EXO_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:

02_EXO_19_13 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.

02_EXO_19_14 And Moses went down from the mount unto the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.

02_EXO_19_15 And he said unto the people, Be ready against the third day: come not at [your] wives.

02_EXO_19_16 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.

02_EXO_19_17 And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount.

02_EXO_19_18 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.

02_EXO_19_19 And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.

02_EXO_19_20 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.

02_EXO_19_21 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.

02_EXO_19_22 And let the priests also, which come near to the LORD, sanctify themselves, lest the LORD break forth upon them.

02_EXO_19_23 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.

02_EXO_19_24 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.

02_EXO_19_25 So Moses went down unto the people, and spake unto them.
