Sastra Bait Kedua Keluaran 19:8: On the Confusion

וַיַּעֲנ֨וּ כָל־הָעָ֤ם יַחְדָּו֙ וַיֹּ֣אמְר֔וּ כֹּ֛ל אֲשֶׁר־דִּבֶּ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה נַעֲשֶׂ֑ה וַיָּ֧שֶׁב מֹשֶׁ֛ה אֶת־דִּבְרֵ֥י הָעָ֖ם אֶל־יְהוָֽה׃

Seluruh umat itu menjawab bersama-sama: “Segala yang difirmankan Yang Mahakekal akan kami lakukan.” Lalu Musa menyampaikan kembali perkataan umat itu kepada Yang Mahakekal.

On the Confusion of Tongues

[58] Wonderful then indeed is the symphony of voices here described, but most wonderful of all, exceeding every harmony, is that united universal symphony in which we find the whole people declaring with one heart, “All that God hath said we will do and hear” (Ex. 19:8).
