¹⁰ And there hath not arisen a prophet any more in Israel like Moses, whom Jehovah hath known face unto face,

³³ Hath a people heard the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, thou -- and doth live?

³⁶ `From the heavens He hath caused thee to hear His voice, to instruct thee, and on earth He hath shewed thee His great fire, and His words thou hast heard out of the midst of the fire.
