1 Dos meses después del día en que habían salido de Egipto, los israelitas llegaron al desierto del Sinaí.
1 In the third month after the children of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, on that same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai.
2 Habían partido de Refidim, y después de entrar en el desierto del Sinaí acamparon allí frente a la montaña.
2 When they had departed from Rephidim, and had come to the wilderness of Sinai, they encamped in the wilderness; and there Israel encamped before the mountain.
3 Moisés subió al monte de Dios. Y el Señor habló con Moisés desde la montaña y le dijo: “Esto es lo que debes decirles a los descendientes de Jacob, los israelitas:
3 Moses went up to God, and Yahweh called to him out of the mountain, saying, “This is what you shall tell the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
4 ‘Vieron con sus propios ojos lo que hice con los egipcios, y cómo los llevé sobre alas de águila, y cómo los traje hacia mí.
4 ‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings, and brought you to myself.
5 Ahora bien, si realmente obedecen lo que digo y cumplen el acuerdo conmigo, entonces, de todas las naciones, serán mi pueblo especial. Aunque que el mundo entero es mío,
5 Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, then you shall be my own possession from among all peoples; for all the earth is mine;
6 para mí serán un reino de sacerdotes, una nación santa’. Esto es lo que debes decirles a los israelitas”.
6 and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”
7 Entonces Moisés bajó, convocó a los ancianos del pueblo y les presentó todo lo que el Señor le había ordenado decir.
7 Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which Yahweh commanded him.
8 Todos respondieron: “Prometemos hacer todo lo que el Señor diga”. Entonces Moisés llevó la respuesta del pueblo al Señor.
8 All the people answered together, and said, “All that Yahweh has spoken we will do.” Moses reported the words of the people to Yahweh.
9 El Señor le dijo a Moisés: “Voy a ir hacia ti en una nube espesa para que el pueblo me oiga hablar contigo y así siempre confiarán en ti”. Entonces Moisés le informó al Señor lo que el pueblo había dicho.
9 Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I come to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever.” Moses told the words of the people to Yahweh.
10 El Señor le dijo a Moisés: “Baja y prepáralos espiritualmente hoy y mañana. Deben lavar sus ropas
10 Yahweh said to Moses, “Go to the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments,
11 y estar listos al tercer día porque es cuando el Señor descenderá al Monte Sinaí a la vista de todos.
11 and be ready for the third day; for on the third day Yahweh will come down in the sight of all the people on Mount Sinai.
12 Establezcan un límite alrededor de la montaña y adviértanles: ‘Tengan cuidado y no intenten subir a la montaña, ¡ni siquiera la toquen! Porque cualquiera que toque la montaña seguramente morirá. No toquen a ninguna persona o animal que haya tocado la montaña.
12 You shall set bounds to the people all around, saying, ‘Be careful that you don’t go up onto the mountain, or touch its border. Whoever touches the mountain shall be surely put to death.
13 Asegúrate de que sean apedreados o disparados con flechas, pues no se les debe permitir vivir’. Sólo cuando escuchen un fuerte sonido de cuerno de carnero, el pueblo podrá subir a la montaña”.
13 No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether it is animal or man, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come up to the mountain.”
14 Moisés bajó de la montaña y preparó al pueblo espiritualmente y lavó sus ropas.
14 Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
15 Luego instruyó al pueblo: “Prepárense para el tercer día, y no tengan relación íntima con una mujer”.
15 He said to the people, “Be ready by the third day. Don’t have sexual relations with a woman.”
16 Cuando llegó la mañana del tercer día hubo truenos y relámpagos, y una nube espesa cubrió la montaña. Hubo un fuerte sonido de cuerno de carnero, y todos en el campamento temblaron de miedo.
16 On the third day, when it was morning, there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain, and the sound of an exceedingly loud trumpet; and all the people who were in the camp trembled.
17 Moisés condujo al pueblo fuera del campamento para encontrarse con Dios. Se pararon al pie de la montaña
17 Moses led the people out of the camp to meet God; and they stood at the lower part of the mountain.
18 El humo se derramó sobre todo el Monte Sinaí porque la presencia del Señor había descendido como el fuego. El humo se elevó como el humo de un horno, y toda la montaña tembló furiosamente.
18 All of Mount Sinai smoked, because Yahweh descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.
19 A medida que el sonido del cuerno de carnero se hacía cada vez más fuerte, Moisés hablaba, y Dios le respondía con una voz fuerte y atronadora.
19 When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
20 El Señor descendió a la cima del Monte Sinaí, y llamó a Moisés para que subiera allí. Así que Moisés subió,
20 Yahweh came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain. Yahweh called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
21 y el Señor le dijo: “Vuelve a bajar, y adviértele al pueblo que no se esfuercen en cruzar el límite para intentar subir donde está el Señor o morirán.
21 Yahweh said to Moses, “Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to Yahweh to gaze, and many of them perish.
22 Incluso los sacerdotes, que vienen ante el Señor, deben prepararse espiritualmente, para que el Señor no los castigue”.
22 Let the priests also, who come near to Yahweh, sanctify themselves, lest Yahweh break out on them.”
23 Pero Moisés le dijo al Señor: “El pueblo no puede subir al monte Sinaí. Tu mismo nos advertiste diciendo: ‘Establezcan un límite alrededor de la montaña, y considérenla como sagrada’”.
23 Moses said to Yahweh, “The people can’t come up to Mount Sinai, for you warned us, saying, ‘Set bounds around the mountain, and sanctify it.’”
24 El Señor le dijo: “Baja y trae a Aarón contigo. Pero los sacerdotes y el pueblo no deben tratar de subir donde estáel Señor, o él los castigará”
24 Yahweh said to him, “Go down! You shall bring Aaron up with you, but don’t let the priests and the people break through to come up to Yahweh, lest he break out against them.”
25 Entonces Moisés bajó y le explicó al pueblo lo que el Señor había dicho.
25 So Moses went down to the people, and told them.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
When they were bending and shooting bows, they did also utter the words of most forward promise, saying, "Whatsoever things the Lord our God hath spoken we will do, and we will hear." "They have been turned back in the day of war:" because the promise of obedience not hearing but temptation doth prove.

For the Word is not stoned, but casts stones when He pleases; and uses a sling against wild beasts--that is, words--approaching the Mount in an unholy way.
