Ang Israel sa Sinai. Si Moises ay tinawag ng Panginoon sa bundok.

19 Sa ikatlong buwan, pagkatapos na ang mga anak ni Israel ay makaalis sa lupain ng Egipto, ay (A)dumating sila ng araw ding yaon sa ilang ng Sinai.

At nang sila'y umalis sa (B)Rephidim, at dumating sa ilang ng Sinai, ay humantong sila sa ilang; at doo'y humantong ang Israel (C)sa harap ng bundok.

At si Moises ay lumapit sa Dios, (D)at tinawag ng Panginoon siya mula sa bundok, na sinasabi, Ganito mo sasabihin sa sangbahayan ni Jacob, at sasaysayin sa mga anak ni Israel.

Inyong nakita ang aking ginawa sa mga Egipcio, (E)at kung paanong dinala ko kayo sa mga pakpak ng agila, at kayo'y inilapit ko sa akin din.

(F)Kaya't ngayon, kung tunay na inyong susundin ang aking tinig, at iingatan ang aking tipan, (G)ay magiging isang tanging kayamanan nga kayo sa akin, na higit sa lahat ng bayan: sapagka't ang buong lupa ay akin;

At kayo'y magiging isang (H)kaharian ng mga saserdote sa akin, at isang (I)banal na bansa. Ito ang mga salita na inyong sasalitaan sa mga anak ni Israel.

At dumating si Moises at tinawag ang mga matanda sa bayan, at ipinahayag sa harap nila ang lahat ng salitang ito na iniutos ng Panginoon sa kaniya.

At (J)ang buong bayan ay sumagot na magkakaisa, at nagsabi, Yaong lahat na sinalita ng Panginoon ay aming gagawin. At ipinagbigay alam ni Moises ang mga salita ng bayan sa Panginoon.

At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Narito (K)ako'y naparirito sa iyo sa isang salimuot na ulap upang marinig ng bayan pagka ako'y magsasalita sa iyo, at paniwalaan ka rin naman nila magpakailan man. At sinalita ni Moises ang mga salita ng bayan sa Panginoon.

10 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Pumaroon ka sa bayan at papagbanalin mo sila ngayon at bukas (L)at labhan nila ang kanilang mga damit,

11 At humanda sa ikatlong araw: (M)sapagka't sa ikatlong araw ay bababa ang Panginoon sa paningin ng buong bayan sa ibabaw ng bundok ng Sinai.

12 At lalagyan mo ng mga hangganan ang bayan sa palibot, na iyong sasabihin, Magingat kayo, na kayo'y huwag sumampa sa bundok, o sumalang sa hangganan: (N)sinomang sumalang sa bundok ay papatayin na walang pagsala:

13 Walang kamay na hihipo sa kaniya, kundi, siya'y tunay na babatuhin, o papanain; maging hayop o tao ay hindi mabubuhay: pagka ang pakakak ay tumunog ng maluwat ay sasampa sila sa bundok.

14 At (O)bumaba si Moises sa bayan mula sa bundok, at pinakabanal ang bayan, at sila'y naglaba ng kanilang mga damit.

15 At kaniyang sinabi sa bayan, (P)humanda kayo sa ikatlong araw; huwag kayong sumiping sa babae.

16 At nangyari ng ikatlong araw, ng umaga, na (Q)kumulog at kumidlat, at may isang salimuot na ulap sa ibabaw ng bundok, at ang (R)tunog ng pakakak ay napakalakas; (S)at ang buong bayan na nasa kampamento ay nanginig.

17 (T)At inilabas ni Moises ang bayan sa kampamento upang salubungin ang Dios; at sila'y tumayo sa paanan ng bundok.

18 At ang buong bundok ng Sinai ay umuusok, sapagka't ang Panginoon ay bumaba sa ibabaw niyaon na (U)nasa apoy: (V)at ang usok niyaon ay napaiilanglang na parang usok ng isang hurno, (W)at ang buong bundok ay umuugang mainam.

19 At nang lumalakas ng lumalakas ang tunog ng pakakak ay nagsasalita si Moises, (X)at sinasagot siya ng Dios sa pamamagitan ng tinig.

20 At ang Panginoon ay bumaba sa ibabaw ng bundok ng Sinai, sa taluktok ng bundok; at tinawag ng Panginoon si Moises sa taluktok ng bundok; at si Moises ay sumampa.

21 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Bumaba ka, pagbilinan mo ang bayan, baka sila'y lumagpas (Y)upang makita ang Panginoon, at mamatay ang karamihan sa kanila.

22 At gayon din ang mga saserdote, na lumalapit sa Panginoon (Z)ay papagbanalin mo, (AA)baka ang Panginoon ay hindi makapagpigil sa kanila.

23 At sinabi ni Moises sa Panginoon, Ang baya'y hindi makasasampa sa bundok ng Sinai: sapagka't iyong pinagbilinan kami, na iyong sinabi, (AB)lagyan mo ng hangganan sa palibot ang bundok, at iyong ariing banal.

24 At sinabi ng Panginoon sa kaniya, Yumaon ka, bumaba ka; at ikaw ay sasampa, ikaw at si Aaron na iyong kasama: nguni't ang mga saserdote at ang bayan ay huwag lumampas sa mga hangganan upang lumapit sa Panginoon, baka siya ay hindi makapagpigil sa kanila.

25 Sa gayo'y bumaba si Moises sa bayan at isinaysay sa kanila.

19 1 The Israelites come to Sinai. 5 Israel is chosen from among all other nations. 8 The people promise to obey God. 12 He that toucheth the hill, dieth. 16 God appeareth unto Moses upon the mount in thunder and lightning.

In the [a]third month, after the children of Israel were gone out of the land of Egypt, the same [b]day came they into the wilderness of Sinai.

For they departed from Rephidim, and came to the desert of Sinai, and camped in the wilderness, even there Israel camped before the mount.

(A)But Moses went up unto God, for the Lord had called out of the mount unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of [c]Jacob, and tell the children of Israel.

(B)Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I carried you upon [d]eagle’s wings, and have brought you unto me.

Now therefore (C)if ye will hear my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be my chief treasure above all people, (D)though all the earth be mine.

Ye shall be unto me also a kingdom of (E)Priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.

¶ Moses then came and called for the Elders of the people, and proposed unto them all these things, which the Lord commanded him.

And the people answered all together, and said, (F)All that the Lord hath commanded, we will do. And Moses reported the words of the people unto the Lord.

And the Lord said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the people may hear while I talk with thee, and that they may also believe thee forever. (For Moses had told the words of the people unto the Lord.)

10 Moreover the Lord said unto Moses, Go to the people, and [e]sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes.

11 And let them be ready on the third day: for the third day the Lord will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai:

12 And thou shalt set marks unto the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up to the mount, nor touch the border of it, whosoever toucheth the (G)mount, shall surely die.

13 No hand shall touch it, but he shall be stoned to death, or stricken through with darts: whether it be beast or man, he shall not live: when the [f]horn bloweth long, they shall come up [g]into the mountain.

14 ¶ Then Moses went down from the mount unto the people, and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes.

15 And he said unto the people, Be ready on the third day, and come not at your [h]wives.

16 And the third day, when it was morning, there was thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the sound of the trumpet exceeding loud, so that all the people that was in the camp was afraid.

17 Then Moses brought the people out of the tents to meet with God, and they stood in the nether part of the mount.

18 (H)And mount Sinai was all on smoke, because the Lord came down upon it in fire, and the smoke thereof ascended, as the smoke of a furnace, and all the mount [i]trembled exceedingly.

19 And when the sound of the trumpet blew long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by [j]voice.

20 (For the Lord came down upon mount Sinai on the top of the mount) and when the Lord called Moses up into the top of the mount, Moses went up.

21 Then the Lord said unto Moses, Go down, charge the people, that they break not their bounds, to go up to the Lord to gaze, lest many of them perish.

22 And let the [k]Priests also which come to the Lord be sanctified, lest the Lord [l]destroy them.

23 And Moses said unto the Lord, The people cannot come up into the mount Sinai: for thou hast charged us, saying, Set marks on the mountain, and sanctify it.

24 And the Lord said unto him, Go, get thee down, and come up thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the [m]Priests and the people break their bounds to come up unto the Lord, lest he destroy them.

25 So Moses went down unto the people, and told them.
