Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
“Be prepared for the third day,” he said to the people. “Do not draw near to a woman.”
In context
13 No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with arrows—whether man or beast, he must not live.’ Only when the ram’s horn sounds a long blast may they approach the mountain.”
14 When Moses came down from the mountain to the people, he consecrated them, and they washed their clothes.
15 “Be prepared for the third day,” he said to the people. “Do not draw near to a woman.”
16 On the third day, when morning came, there was thunder and lightning. A thick cloud was upon the mountain, and a very loud blast of the ram’s horn went out, so that all the people in the camp trembled.
17 Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
