13a hand cometh not against him, for he is certainly stoned or shot through, whether beast or man it liveth not; in the drawing out of the jubilee cornet they go up into the mount.`
14And Moses cometh down from the mount unto the people, and sanctifieth the people, and they wash their garments;
15and he saith unto the people, `Be ye prepared for the third day, come not nigh unto a woman.`
16And it cometh to pass, on the third day, while it is morning, that there are voices, and lightnings, and a heavy cloud, on the mount, and the sound of a trumpet very strong; and all the people who [are] in the camp do tremble.
17And Moses bringeth out the people to meet God from the camp, and they station themselves at the lower part of the mount,
18and mount Sinai [is] wholly a smoke from the presence of Jehovah, who hath come down on it in fire, and its smoke goeth up as smoke of the furnace, and the whole mount trembleth exceedingly;
19and the sound of the trumpet is going on, and very strong; Moses speaketh, and God doth answer him with a voice.
