Exodus 20:19-21

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁹ Saying to Moses: Speak thou to us, and we will hear: let not the Lord speak to us, lest we die.

²⁰ And Moses said to the people: Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that the dread of him might be in you, and you should not sin.

²¹ And the people stood afar off. But Moses went to the dark cloud wherein God was.
