1. IN THE third month after the Israelites left the land of Egypt, the same day, they came into the Wilderness of Sinai.
2. When they had departed from Rephidim and had come to the Wilderness of Sinai, they encamped there before the mountain.
3. And Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him out of the mountain, Say this to the house of Jacob and tell the Israelites:
4. You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to Myself.
5. Now therefore, if you will obey My voice in truth and keep My covenant, then you shall be My own peculiar possession and treasure from among and above all peoples; for all the earth is Mine.
