Deuteronomy 5:6–22

6 f‘I am the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of 1bondage.

7 g‘You shall have no other gods 2before Me.

8 h‘You shall not make for yourself a carved image—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; you shall not ibow 3down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, 4visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 10 jbut showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and 5keep My commandments.

11 k‘You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him 6guiltless who takes His name in vain.

12 l‘Observe the Sabbath day, to 7keep it holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. 13 mSix days you shall labor and do all your work, 14 but the seventh day is the nSabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates, that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. 15 oAnd remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there pby a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.

16 q‘Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God has commanded you, rthat your days may be long, and that it may be well with syou in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

17 t‘You shall not murder.

18 u‘You shall not commit adultery.

19 v‘You shall not steal.

20 w‘You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

21 x‘You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife; and you shall not desire your neighbor’s house, his field, his male servant, his female servant, his ox, his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s.’

22 “These words the Lord spoke to all your assembly, in the mountain from the midst of the fire, the cloud, and the thick darkness, with a loud voice; and He added no more. And yHe wrote them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me.
