Exodus 19:20-23 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

20. And Yahweh went down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and Yahweh called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.

21. And Yahweh said to Moses, “Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to Yahweh to see and many from them fall.

22. And even the priests who come near Yahweh must consecrate themselves, lest Yahweh break out against them.”

23. And Moses said to Yahweh, “The people are not able to go up to Mount Sinai, because you yourself warned us, saying, ‘Set limits around the mountain and consecrate it.’ ”
