¹² Then the Lord spoke to you from the middle of the fire. You heard him as he spoke, but you did not see him. You only heard a voice. ¹³ He told you about his covenant and the ten commands that he wrote on two flat pieces of stone. He commanded you to obey them. ¹⁴ At that time, the Lord commanded me to teach you his rules and his laws. You must obey them in the land that you will now go in to live there.
