16. And it came to pass on the third day in the morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet exceeding loud; so that all the people that were in the camp trembled.

19. And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
