Exodus 20:18-21
Legacy Standard Bible
18 (A)And all the people perceived the [a]thunder and the lightning flashes and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking; and the people perceived it, and they shook and stood at a distance. 19 (B)Then they said to Moses, “Speak [b]to us yourself, and we will listen; but let not God speak [c]to us, lest we die.” 20 And Moses said to the people, “(C)Do not be afraid; for God has come in order (D)to test you, and in order that (E)the fear of Him may [d]be with you, so that you may not sin.” 21 So the people stood at a distance, but Moses came near (F)the dense gloom where God was.
