Verse 26 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.

Denn was ist alles Fleisch, daß es hören möge die Stimme des lebendigen Gottes aus dem Feuer reden wie wir, und lebendig bleibe?
Porque, ¿qué es toda carne, para que oiga la voz del Dios viviente que habla de en medio del fuego, como nosotros la oímos, y viva?
Porque ¿qué mortal ha oído la voz del Dios viviente hablando de en medio del fuego, como nosotros, y ha seguido vivo?
Quel est l'homme, en effet, qui ait jamais entendu, comme nous, la voix du Dieu vivant parlant du milieu du feu, et qui soit demeuré vivant?
Imperocchè, quale è la carne, qual ch’ella sia, che, avendo udita la voce del vivente Iddio, parlante di mezzo al fuoco, come abbiamo udito noi, sia restata in vita?
Porque, quem há de toda a carne, que ouviu a voz do Deus vivente falando do meio do fogo, como nós, e ficou vivo?
凡血肉之軀,有誰像我們一樣,聽見了永生上帝從火中講話的聲音還能活著呢?
