Exodus 20:18-21
Moses Comforts the People

18 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw [it], they removed, and stood afar off.

18:

19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.

19:

20 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.

20:

21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God [was].

21:
