And God spoke all these words, saying, |
2
|
"I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. |
3
|
"You shall have no other gods before me. |
4
|
"You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; |
5
|
you shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, |
6
|
but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments. |
7
|
"You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain. |
8
|
"Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. |
9
|
Six days you shall labor, and do all your work; |
10
|
but the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God; in it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your manservant, or your maidservant, or your cattle, or the sojourner who is within your gates; |
11
|
for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and hallowed it. |
12
|
"Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives you. |
14
|
"You shall not commit adultery. |
16
|
"You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. |
17
|
"You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant, or his maidservant, or his ox, or his ass, or anything that is your neighbor's." |
18
|
Now when all the people perceived the thunderings and the lightnings and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking, the people were afraid and trembled; and they stood afar off, |
19
|
and said to Moses, "You speak to us, and we will hear; but let not God speak to us, lest we die." |
20
|
And Moses said to the people, "Do not fear; for God has come to prove you, and that the fear of him may be before your eyes, that you may not sin." |
21
|
And the people stood afar off, while Moses drew near to the thick darkness where God was. |
22
|
And the LORD said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the people of Israel: `You have seen for yourselves that I have talked with you from heaven. |
23
|
You shall not make gods of silver to be with me, nor shall you make for yourselves gods of gold. |
24
|
An altar of earth you shall make for me and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen; in every place where I cause my name to be remembered I will come to you and bless you. |
25
|
And if you make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stones; for if you wield your tool upon it you profane it. |
26
|
And you shall not go up by steps to my altar, that your nakedness be not exposed on it.' |
