…and be prepared by the third day, for on the third day the LORD will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.

When all the people witnessed the thunder and lightning, the sounding of the ram’s horn, and the mountain enveloped in smoke, they trembled and stood at a distance.

“Do not be afraid,” Moses replied. “For God has come to test you, so that the fear of Him may be before you, to keep you from sinning.”

You are not to make any gods alongside Me; you are not to make for yourselves gods of silver or gold.

And Moses wrote down all the words of the LORD. Early the next morning he got up and built an altar at the base of the mountain, along with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel.

Moses took half of the blood and put it in bowls, and the other half he splattered on the altar.

Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it to the people, who replied, “All that the LORD has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient.”
