15Looking with care to see that no man among you in his behaviour comes short of the grace of God; for fear that some bitter root may come up to be a trouble to you, and that some of you may be made unclean by it;
16And that there may not be any evil liver, or any man without respect for God, like Esau, who let his birthright go for a plate of food.
17For you have knowledge that even long after, when he was desiring the blessing for his heritage, he was turned away, though he made his request frequently and with weeping; because the past might not be changed.
18You have not come to a mountain which may be touched, and is burning with fire, and to a black cloud, and a dark smoke, and a violent wind,
19And to the sound of a horn, and the voice of words, the hearers of which made request that not a word more might be said to them:
20For the order which said, If the mountain is touched even by a beast, the beast is to be stoned, seemed hard to them;
21And the vision was so overpowering that even Moses said, I am shaking and full of fear.
