02:019:015 And he said unto the people, Be ready against the third day:
come not at your wives.
02:019:016 And it came to pass on the third day in the morning, that
there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the mount,
and the voice of the trumpet exceeding loud; so that all the people
that was in the camp trembled.
02:019:017 And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet
with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount.
02:019:018 And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD
descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke
of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly.
02:019:019 And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed
louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.
02:019:020 And the LORD came down upon mount Sinai, on the top of the
mount: and the LORD called Moses up to the top of the mount; and Moses
went up.
02:019:021 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go down, charge the people,
lest they break through unto the LORD to gaze, and many of them perish.
02:019:022 And let the priests also, which come near to the LORD,
sanctify themselves, lest the LORD break forth upon them.
02:019:023 And Moses said unto the LORD, The people cannot come up to
mount Sinai: for thou chargedst us, saying, Set bounds about the mount,
and sanctify it.
02:019:024 And the LORD said unto him, Away, get thee down, and thou
shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the priests and
the people break through to come up unto the LORD, lest he break forth
upon them.
02:019:025 So Moses went down unto the people, and spake unto them.
02:020:001 And God spake all these words, saying,
02:020:002 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the
land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
02:020:003 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
02:020:004 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any
likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
02:020:005 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for
I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the
fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them
that hate me;
02:020:006 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and
keep my commandments.
02:020:007 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain;
for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
02:020:008 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
02:020:009 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
02:020:010 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in
it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy
manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that
is within thy gates:
