2 The Lord our God formed a covenant with us at Horeb.
3 He did not make the covenant with our fathers, but with us, who are alive and in the present time.
4 He spoke to us face to face on the mountain, from the midst of fire.
5 I was the mediator, for I was in the middle between the Lord and you, at that time, to announce his words to you. For you were afraid of the fire, and so you did not ascend to the mountain. And he said:
6 'I am the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, from the house of servitude.
