2And when they had gone away from Rephidim and had come into the waste land of Sinai, they put up their tents in the waste land before the mountain: there Israel put up its tents.
3And Moses went up to God, and the voice of the Lord came to him from the mountain, saying, Say to the family of Jacob, and give word to the children of Israel:
4You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I took you, as on eagles' wings, guiding you to myself.
5If now you will truly give ear to my voice and keep my agreement, you will be my special property out of all the peoples: for all the earth is mine:
6And you will be a kingdom of priests to me, and a holy nation. These are the words which you are to say to the children of Israel.
7And Moses came and sent for the chiefs of the people and put before them all these words which the Lord had given him orders to say.
8And all the people, answering together, said, Whatever the Lord has said we will do. And Moses took back to the Lord the words of the people.
