Exodus 19:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 For they departed from Rephidim, and came to the desert of Sinai, and camped in the wilderness, even there Israel camped before the mount.
3 (A)But Moses went up unto God, for the Lord had called out of the mount unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of [a]Jacob, and tell the children of Israel.
4 (B)Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I carried you upon [b]eagle’s wings, and have brought you unto me.
