Moses

Afterward Moses let his father in law depart, and he went into his countrey.

But Moses went vp vnto God, for ye Lord had called out of the mount vnto him, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Iaakob, and tell the children of Israel,

Moses then came and called for the Elders of the people, and proposed vnto them all these things, which the Lord commanded him.

And the people answered all together, and sayd, All that the Lord hath commanded, we will doe. And Moses reported the wordes of the people vnto the Lord.

And the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Lo, I come vnto thee in a thicke cloude, that the people may heare, whiles I talke with thee, and that they may also beleeue thee for euer. (for Moses had tolde the wordes of the people vnto the Lord)

Moreouer, the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Goe to the people, and sanctifie them to day and to morow, and let them wash their clothes.

Then Moses went downe from ye mount vnto the people, and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes.

Then Moses brought the people out of the tents to meete with God, and they stoode in the nether part of the mount.

And when the sound of the trumpet blew long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by voyce.

(For the Lord came downe vpon mount Sinai on the toppe of the mount) and when the Lord called Moses vp into the top of the mount, Moses went vp.

Then the Lord said vnto Moses, Go down, charge the people, that they breake not their boundes, to go vp to the Lord to gaze, least many of them perish.

And Moses sayde vnto the Lord, The people can not come vp into the mount Sinai: for thou hast charged vs, saying, Set markes on the mountaine, and sanctifie it.

So Moses went downe vnto the people, and tolde them.

And sayde vnto Moses, Talke thou with vs, and we will heare: but let not God talke with vs, lest we die.

Then Moses sayde vnto the people, Feare not: for God is come to proue you, and that his feare may be before you, that ye sinne not.

So the people stoode afarre off, but Moses drew neere vnto the darkenes where God was.

And the Lord sayde vnto Moses, Thus thou shalt say vnto the children of Israel, Ye haue seene that I haue talked with you from heauen.

Now hee had said vnto Moses, Come vp to the Lord, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seuentie of the Elders of Israel, and yee shall worship a farre off.

And Moses himselfe alone shall come neere to the Lord, but they shall not come neere, neither shall the people goe vp with him.

Afterwarde Moses came and told the people all the wordes of the Lord, and all the lawes: and all the people answered with one voyce, and said, All the things which the Lord hath said, will we doe.

And Moses wrote all the wordes of the Lord, and rose vp early, and set vp an altar vnder the mountaine, and twelue pillars according to the twelue tribes of Israel.

Then Moses tooke halfe of the blood, and put it in basens, and halfe of the blood he sprinckled on the altar.

Then Moses tooke the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold, the blood of the couenant, which the Lord hath made with you concerning all these things.

Then went vp Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seuentie of the Elders of Israel.

And the Lord said vnto Moses, Come vp to me into the mountaine, and be there, and I will giue thee tables of stone, and the law and the commandement, which I haue written, for to teach them.
