Context
17Usiitamani nyumba ya jirani yako. Usimtamani mke wa jirani yako, wala mtumishi wake wa kiume au wa kike, wala ngʼombe wake au punda wake, wala chochote kile alicho nacho jirani yako.” 18Watu walipoona ngurumo na radi, na kusikia mlio wa tarumbeta, na kuuona mlima katika moshi, walitetemeka kwa woga. Wakasimama mbali 19na wakamwambia Mose, “Sema nasi wewe mwenyewe, nasi tutakusikiliza. Lakini usimwache Mungu aseme nasi, la sivyo tutakufa.” 20Mose akawaambia watu, “Msiogope! Mungu amekuja kuwajaribu, ili kwamba hofu ya Mungu iwakalie, msitende dhambi.” 21Watu wakabaki mbali, wakati Mose alipolisogelea lile giza nene mahali pale Mungu alipokuwa.
