Exodus 20:19

Context
20:19 They said to Moses, “You speak 1  to us and we will listen, but do not let God speak with us, lest we die.”

1 tn The verb is a Piel imperative. In this context it has more of the sense of a request than a command. The independent personal pronoun “you” emphasizes the subject and forms the contrast with God’s speaking.
