Deuteronomy 5:27

25 But now, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us, and we will die, if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any longer.

26 For who of all flesh has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the fire, as we have, and survived?

Go near and listen to all that the LORD our God says. Then you can tell us everything the LORD our God tells you; we will listen and obey.”

28 And the LORD heard the words you spoke to me, and He said to me, “I have heard the words that these people have spoken to you. They have done well in all that they have spoken.

29 If only they had such a heart to fear Me and keep all My commandments always, so that it might be well with them and with their children forever.
