⁸“Do not make statues of gods that look like anything in the sky or on the earth or in the waters. ⁹Do not bow down to them or worship them. I am the Lord your God. I am a jealous God. I punish the children for the sin of their parents. I judge the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of those who hate me. ¹⁰But for all time to come I show love to all those who love me and keep my commandments.

¹¹“Do not misuse the name of the Lord your God. The Lord will find guilty anyone who misuses his name.

¹²“Observe the Sabbath day. Keep it holy, just as the Lord your God commanded you. ¹³Do all of your work in six days. ¹⁴But the seventh day is a Sabbath in honor of the Lord your God. Do not do any work on that day. The same command applies to your sons and daughters, your male and female servants, your oxen, your donkeys and your other animals. It also applies to any outsiders who live in your cities. I want your male and female servants to rest, just as you do. ¹⁵Remember that you were slaves in Egypt. The Lord your God reached out his mighty hand and powerful arm and brought you out of there. So he has commanded you to observe the Sabbath day.

¹⁶“Honor your father and mother, just as the Lord your God commanded you. Then you will live a long time in the land he is giving you. And things will go well with you there.

¹⁷“Do not commit murder.

¹⁸“Do not commit adultery.

¹⁹“Do not steal.

²⁰“Do not give false witness against your neighbor.

²¹“Do not long for your neighbor’s wife. Do not long to have anything that belongs to your neighbor. Do not long to have your neighbor’s house or land, male or female servant, ox or donkey.”
