Exodus 20:2–17

²“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery;^{* 3}you shall have no other gods before^j me.^*

⁴“You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above or that is on 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, punishing children for the iniquity of parents to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me^{* 6}but showing steadfast love to the thousandth generation^k of those who love me and keep my commandments.^*

⁷“You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not acquit anyone who misuses his name.^*

⁸“Remember the Sabbath day and 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; you shall not do any work—you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns. ¹¹For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but rested the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and consecrated it.^*
