于是,那夜她们又叫父亲喝酒,小女儿起来与她父亲同寝。她几时躺下,几时起来,父亲都不知道。
And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
小女儿也生了儿子,给他起名叫便亚米,就是现今亚扪人的始祖。
And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Benammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.

我向埃及人所行的事,你们都看见了,且看见我如鹰将你们背在翅膀上,带来归我。
Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself.
如今你们若实在听从我的话,遵守我的约,就要在万民中作属我的子民,因为全地都是我的。
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:

你要在山的四围给百姓定界限,说,你们当谨慎,不可上山去,也不可摸山的边界,凡摸这山的,必要治死他。
And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall be surely put to death:
不可用手摸他,必用石头打死,或用箭射透,无论是人是牲畜,都不得活。到角声拖长的时候,他们才可到山根来。
There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or man, it shall not live: when the trumpet soundeth long, they shall come up to the mount.
摩西下山往百姓那里去,叫他们自洁,他们就洗衣服。
And Moses went down from the mount unto the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
他对百姓说,到第三天要预备好了。不可亲近女人。
And he said unto the people, Be ready against the third day: come not at your wives.
