Exodus 19:3-6

New Catholic Bible

³ Moses climbed up to meet God, and the Lord called out to him from the mountain, saying, “You will say this to the house of Jacob and announce it to the children of Israel: ⁴ ‘You yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians and how I lifted you up on eagles’ wings and brought you here to me. ⁵ Now, if you will obey my voice and keep my covenant, you will be my own possession from among all the peoples, for the entire earth is mine. ⁶ You will be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation for me.’ These are the words you will speak to Israel.”^[a]
