| [19]These words 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 spoke unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice, and it went on no more. And He wrote them upon two tables of stone, and gave them unto me. |
[19]Neither shalt thou steal. |
| [20]And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain did burn with fire, that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders; |
[20]Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbor. |
| [21]And ye said: 'Behold, 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 our God hath shown us His glory and His greatness, and we have heard His voice out of the midst of the fire; we have seen this day that God doth speak with man, and he liveth. |

| [22]Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us; if we hear the voice of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 our God any more, then we shall die. |
[22]These words the Lord spake unto all your multitude in the mount out of the midst of the fire, the cloud and the darkness, with a great voice, and added no more thereto: and wrote them upon two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me. |
| [23]For who is there of all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived? |
[23]And when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire) then ye came to me, all the chief of your tribes, and your elders: |
| [24]Go thou near, and hear all that 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 our God may say; and thou shalt speak unto us all that 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 our God may speak unto thee; and we will hear it and do it.' |
[24]And ye said, Behold, the Lord our God hath showed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth. |
| [25]And 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 heard the voice of your words, when ye spoke unto me; and 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 said unto me: 'I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee; they have well said all that they have spoken. |
[25]Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any more, we shall die. |
| [26]Oh that they had such a heart as this alway, to fear Me, and keep all My commandments, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever! |
[26]For what flesh was there ever, that heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire as we have, and lived? |
| [27]Go say to them: Return ye to your tents. |
[27]Go thou near and hear all that the Lord our God saith: and declare thou unto us all that the Lord our God saith unto thee, and we will hear it, and do it. |
| [28]But as for thee, stand thou here by Me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.' |
[28]Then the Lord heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto me: and the Lord said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have well said, all that they have spoken. |
| [29]Ye shall observe to do therefore as 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 your God hath commanded you; ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. |
[29]Oh that there were such an heart in them to fear me, and to keep all my commandments alway: that it might go well with them, and with their children forever. |
| [30]Ye shall walk in all the way which 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess. |
[30]Go, say unto them, Return you into your tents. |
