Exodus 19:23 Context
21And the Lord said vnto Moses, Goe downe, charge the people, lest they breake thorow vnto the Lord to gaze, and many of them perish. 22And let the Priestes also which come neere to the Lord, sanctifie themselues, lest the Lord breake foorth vpon them. 23And Moses said vnto the Lord, The people cannot come vp to mount Sinai: for thou chargedst vs, saying, Set bounds about the mount, and sanctifie it. 24And the Lord said vnto him, Away, get thee downe, and thou shalt come vp, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the Priestes and the people breake through, to come vp vnto the Lord, lest hee breake foorth vpon them. 25So Moses went downe vnto the people, and spake vnto them.
