1 In the third7992 month,2320 when the children1121 of Israel3478 were gone forth3318 out of the land4480 776 of Egypt,4714 the same2088 day3117 came935 they into the wilderness4057 of Sinai.5514 2 For they were departed5265 from Rephidim,4480 7508 and were come935 to the desert4057 of Sinai,5514 and had pitched2583 in the wilderness;4057 and there8033 Israel3478 camped2583 before5048 the mount.2022 3 And Moses4872 went up5927 unto413 God,430 and the LORD3068 called7121 unto413 him out of4480 the mountain,2022 saying,559 Thus3541 shalt thou say559 to the house1004 of Jacob,3290 and tell5046 the children1121 of Israel;3478 4 Ye859 have seen7200 what834 I did6213 unto the Egyptians,4714 and how I bore5375 you on5921 eagles'5404 wings,3671 and brought935 you unto413 myself. 5 Now6258 therefore, if518 ye will obey my voice indeed,8085 8085 6963 and keep8104 853 my covenant,1285 then ye shall be1961 a peculiar treasure5459 unto me above all4480 3605 people:5971 for3588 all3605 the earth776 is mine: 6 And ye859 shall be1961 unto me a kingdom4467 of priests,3548 and a holy6918 nation.1471 These428 are the words1697 which834 thou shalt speak1696 unto413 the children1121 of Israel.3478 7 And Moses4872 came935 and called7121 for the elders2205 of the people,5971 and laid7760 before their faces6440 853 all3605 these428 words1697 which834 the LORD3068 commanded6680 him. 8 And all3605 the people5971 answered6030 together,3162 and said,559 All3605 that834 the LORD3068 hath spoken1696 we will do.6213 And Moses4872 returned7725 853 the words1697 of the people5971 unto413 the LORD.3068 9 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Moses,4872 Lo,2009 I595 come935 unto413 thee in a thick5645 cloud,6051 that5668 the people5971 may hear8085 when I speak1696 with5973 thee, and believe539 thee forever.5769 And Moses4872 told5046 853 the words1697 of the people5971 unto413 the LORD.3068 10 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Moses,4872 Go1980 unto413 the people,5971 and sanctify6942 them today3117 and tomorrow,4279 and let them wash3526 their clothes,8071 11 And be1961 ready3559 against the third7992 day:3117 for3588 the third7992 day3117 the LORD3068 will come down3381 in the sight5869 of all3605 the people5971 upon5921 mount2022 Sinai.5514 12 And thou shalt set bounds1379 853 unto the people5971 round about,5439 saying,559 Take heed8104 to yourselves, that ye go not up5927 into the mount,2022 or touch5060 the border7097 of it: whosoever3605 toucheth5060 the mount2022 shall be surely put to death:4191 4191 13 There shall not3808 a hand3027 touch5060 it, but3588 he shall surely be stoned,5619 5619 or176 shot through;3384 3384 whether518 it be beast929 or518 man,376 it shall not3808 live:2421 when the trumpet3104 soundeth long,4900 they1992 shall come up5927 to the mount.2022 14 And Moses4872 went down3381 from4480 the mount2022 unto413 the people,5971 and sanctified6942 853 the people;5971 and they washed3526 their clothes.8071 15 And he said559 unto413 the people,5971 Be1961 ready3559 against the third7969 day:3117 come5066 not408 at413 your wives.802 16 And it came to pass1961 on the third7992 day3117 in the morning,1242 that there were1961 thunders6963 and lightnings,1300 and a thick3515 cloud6051 upon5921 the mount,2022 and the voice6963 of the trumpet7782 exceeding3966 loud;2389 so that all3605 the people5971 that834 was in the camp4264 trembled.2729 17 And Moses4872 brought forth3318 853 the people5971 out of4480 the camp4264 to meet7125 with God;430 and they stood3320 at the nether part8482 of the mount.2022 18 And mount2022 Sinai5514 was altogether3605 on a smoke,6225 because4480 6440 834 the LORD3068 descended3381 upon5921 it in fire:784 and the smoke6227 thereof ascended5927 as the smoke6227 of a furnace,3536 and the whole3605 mount2022 quaked2729 greatly.3966 19 And when1961 the voice6963 of the trumpet7782 sounded long,1980 and waxed louder and louder,2388 3966 Moses4872 spoke,1696 and God430 answered6030 him by a voice.6963 20 And the LORD3068 came down3381 upon5921 mount2022 Sinai,5514 on413 the top7218 of the mount:2022 and the LORD3068 called7121 Moses4872 up to413 the top7218 of the mount;2022 and Moses4872 went up.5927 21 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Moses,4872 Go down,3381 charge5749 the people,5971 lest6435 they break through2040 unto413 the LORD3068 to gaze,7200 and many7227 of4480 them perish.5307 22 And let the priests3548 also,1571 which come near5066 to413 the LORD,3068 sanctify themselves,6942 lest6435 the LORD3068 break forth6555 upon them. 23 And Moses4872 said559 unto413 the LORD,3068 The people5971 cannot3808 3201 come up5927 to413 mount2022 Sinai:5514 for3588 thou859 chargedst5749 us, saying,559 Set bounds1379 853 about the mount,2022 and sanctify6942 it. 24 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 him, Away,1980 get thee down,3381 and thou shalt come up,5927 thou,859 and Aaron175 with5973 thee: but let not408 the priests3548 and the people5971 break through2040 to come up5927 unto413 the LORD,3068 lest6435 he break forth6555 upon them. 25 So Moses4872 went down3381 unto413 the people,5971 and spoke559 unto413 them. |

1 Mense tertio egressionis Israël de terra Ægypti, in die hac venerunt in solitudinem Sinai. 2 Nam profecti de Raphidim, et pervenientes usque in desertum Sinai, castrametati sunt in eodem loco, ibique Israël fixit tentoria e regione montis. 3 Moyses autem ascendit ad Deum: vocavitque eum Dominus de monte, et ait: Hæc dices domui Jacob, et annuntiabis filiis Israël: 4 Vos ipsi vidistis quæ fecerim Ægyptiis, quomodo portaverim vos super alas aquilarum, et assumpserim mihi. 5 Si ergo audieritis vocem meam, et custodieritis pactum meum, eritis mihi in peculium de cunctis populis: mea est enim omnis terra: 6 et vos eritis mihi in regnum sacerdotale, et gens sancta. Hæc sunt verba quæ loqueris ad filios Israël. 7 Venit Moyses: et convocatis majoribus natu populi, exposuit omnes sermones quos mandaverat Dominus. 8 Responditque omnis populus simul: Cuncta quæ locutus est Dominus, faciemus. Cumque retulisset Moyses verba populi ad Dominum, 9 ait ei Dominus: Jam nunc veniam ad te in caligine nubis, ut audiat me populus loquentem ad te, et credat tibi in perpetuum. Nuntiavit ergo Moyses verba populi ad Dominum. 10 Qui dixit ei: Vade ad populum, et sanctifica illos hodie, et cras, laventque vestimenta sua. 11 Et sint parati in diem tertium: in die enim tertia descendet Dominus coram omni plebe super montem Sinai. 12 Constituesque terminos populo per circuitum, et dices ad eos: Cavete ne ascendatis in montem, nec tangatis fines illius: omnis qui tetigerit montem, morte morietur. 13 Manus non tanget eum, sed lapidibus opprimetur, aut confodietur jaculis: sive jumentum fuerit, sive homo, non vivet: cum cœperit clangere buccina, tunc ascendant in montem. 14 Descenditque Moyses de monte ad populum, et sanctificavit eum. Cumque lavissent vestimenta sua, 15 ait ad eos: Estote parati in diem tertium, et ne appropinquetis uxoribus vestris. 16 Jamque advenerat tertius dies, et mane inclaruerat: et ecce cœperunt audiri tonitrua, ac micare fulgura, et nubes densissima operire montem, clangorque buccinæ vehementius perstrepebat: et timuit populus qui erat in castris. 17 Cumque eduxisset eos Moyses in occursum Dei de loco castrorum, steterunt ad radices montis. 18 Totus autem mons Sinai fumabat, eo quod descendisset Dominus super eum in igne: et ascenderet fumus ex eo quasi de fornace, eratque omnis mons terribilis. 19 Et sonitus buccinæ paulatim crescebat in majus, et prolixius tendebatur: Moyses loquebatur, et Deus respondebat ei. 20 Descenditque Dominus super montem Sinai in ipso montis vertice, et vocavit Moysen in cacumen ejus. Quo cum ascendisset, 21 dixit ad eum: Descende, et contestare populum: ne forte velit transcendere terminos ad videndum Dominum, et pereat ex eis plurima multitudo. 22 Sacerdotes quoque qui accedunt ad Dominum, sanctificentur, ne percutiat eos. 23 Dixitque Moyses ad Dominum: Non poterit vulgus ascendere in montem Sinai: tu enim testificatus es, et jussisti, dicens: Pone terminos circa montem, et sanctifica illum. 24 Cui ait Dominus: Vade, descende: ascendesque tu, et Aaron tecum: sacerdotes autem et populus ne transeant terminos, nec ascendant ad Dominum, ne forte interficiat illos. 25 Descenditque Moyses ad populum, et omnia narravit eis. |
