The correct response is that the people were terrified and asked Moses to talk to God on their behalf so that they didn’t have to talk to God directly. This reaction is described in the biblical account found in Exodus, where the Israelites experienced fear and awe in the presence of God's holiness on Mount Sinai, prompting them to request that Moses mediate between them and God.
