Exodus 20:2–17

²I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the place of slavery.^{c 3}Do not have other gods besides me.^{d 4}Do not make an idol^e for yourself, whether in the shape of anything in the heavens above or on the earth below or in the waters under the earth. ⁵Do not bow in worship to them, and do not serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God,^f bringing the consequences of the fathers’ iniquity on the children to the third and fourth generations^g of those who hate me, ⁶but showing faithful love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commands.^h

⁷Do not misuse the name of the Lord your God, because the Lord will not leave anyone unpunished who misuses his name.ⁱ

⁸Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy:^{j 9}You are to labor six days and do all your work,^{k 10}but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. You must not do any work—you, your son or daughter, your male or female servant, your livestock, or the resident alien who is within your city gates.^{l 11}For the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and everything in them in six days; then he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and declared it holy.
