Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, then we shall die.

Verse 25 is found in chapter 5 of Deuteronomy. Moses recalls that God spoke from the fire and that the people asked Moses to act as mediator because they feared dying before the divine manifestation. God approves the people’s willingness to listen and commands them to remain faithful to his commandments. Moses’ mediation thus takes on a central role in transmitting the divine word to Israel.

Und nun, warum sollen wir sterben, daß uns dies große Feuer verzehre? Wenn wir des HERRN, unsers Gottes, Stimme weiter hören, so müssen wir sterben.
Ahora pues, ¿por qué moriremos? que este gran fuego nos consumirá: si tornáremos a oír la voz de Jehová nuestro Dios, moriremos.
Ahora, pues, ¿por qué hemos de morir? Este gran fuego nos consumirá. Si seguimos oyendo la voz de Jehová nuestro Dios, moriremos.
Et maintenant pourquoi mourrions-nous? car ce grand feu nous dévorera; si nous continuons à entendre la voix de l'Eternel, notre Dieu, nous mourrons.
Ora dunque, perchè morremmo noi? perciocchè questo gran fuoco ci consumerà; se noi seguitiamo a udire ancora la voce del Signore Iddio nostro, noi morremo.
Agora, pois, por que morreríamos? Pois este grande fogo nos consumiria; se ainda mais ouvíssemos a voz do SENHOR nosso Deus morreríamos.
現在這大火將要吞滅我們,我們何必死呢?若再聽見耶和華我們上帝的聲音,我們就必死。
