    因为上主在六天内造了天地、海洋和其中一切,但第七天休息了,因此上主祝福了安息日,也定为圣日。

    19andsaidtoMoses,"Youspeaktous,andwewilllisten;butletnotGodspeaktous,orweshalldie."

    对梅瑟说:"你同我们说话罢!我们定要听从,不要天主同我们说话,免得我们死亡。"

    20Mosesansweredthepeople,"Donotbeafraid,forGodhascometoyouonlytotestyouandputhisfearuponyou,lestyoushouldsin."

    梅瑟回答百姓说:"不要害怕!因为天主降临是为试探你们,使你们在他面前常怀敬畏之情,不致犯罪。"

    百姓远远站着,梅瑟却走近天主所在的浓云中。

    22TheLORDtoldMoses,"ThusshallyouspeaktotheIsraelites:YouhaveseenforyourselvesthatIhavespokentoyoufromheaven.

    上主向梅瑟说:"你这样训示以色列子民说:你们亲自见过我从天上同你们说了话。
