## Deuteronomy 5:25-27 in Context (Verses 22–30 KJV)
 
 [22 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/22) ¶ These words the LORD spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/23) And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire,) that ye came near unto me, *even* all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
 
 [24 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/24) And ye said, Behold, the LORD our God hath shewed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/25) Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, then we shall die.*
 
 [26 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/26) For who *is there of* all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we *have*, and lived?
 
 [27 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/27) Go thou near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say: and speak thou unto us all that the LORD our God shall speak unto thee; and we will hear *it*, and do *it*.
 
 [28 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/28) And the LORD heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto me; and the LORD said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have well said all that they have spoken.
 
 [29 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/29) O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
 
 [30 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/5/30) Go say to them, Get you into your tents again.
