third day: for the third day YHVH will come down in the
sight of all the people upon mount Sinai. And thou
shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying,
Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up into the
mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the
mount shall be surely put to death: There shall not an
hand touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot
through; whether it be beast or man, it shall not live:
when the trumpet soundeth long, they shall come up to
the mount. And Moses went down from the mount unto the
people, and sanctified the people;
and they washed their
clothes."

themselves clean."
