24 And you said: ‘Surely the Lord our God has shown us His glory and His greatness, and awe have heard His voice from the midst of the fire. We have seen this day that God speaks with man; yet he bstill lives.  
25 Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us; aif we hear the voice of the Lord our God anymore, then we shall die.  
26 aFor who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living God speaking from the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?  
27 You go near and hear all that the Lord our God may say, and atell us all that the Lord our God says to you, and we will hear and do it.’
