and there Israel camped in front of the mountain. <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>Now Moses went up to God, and Yahweh called to him from the mountain, saying, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob and tell the sons of Israel: <span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>‘You yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and <i>how</i> I lifted you up on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself. <span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>So now then, if you will indeed listen to My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be My treasured possession among all the peoples, for all the earth is Mine; <span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>and you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you shall speak to the sons of Israel.” <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>So Moses came and called the elders of the people and set before them all these words which Yahweh had commanded him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>And all the people answered together and said, “All that Yahweh has spoken we will do!” And Moses brought back the words of the people to Yahweh. <span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I will come to you in a thick cloud, so that the people may hear when I speak with you and may also believe in you forever.” Then Moses told the words of the people to Yahweh. <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>Yahweh also said to Moses, “Go to the people and set them apart as holy today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments; <span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>and let them be ready for the third day, for on the third day Yahweh will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people. <span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>And you shall set bounds for the people all around, saying, ‘<span class="fn"><a href="#fn">[†]</a></span>Beware that you do not go up on the mountain or touch the border of it; whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death. <span class="reftext"><a href="/exodus/19-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or surely <span class="fn"><a href="#fn">[†]</a></span>shot through;
