1And
God spake
all these
words,
saying,
2I am the
LORD thy
God, which
have brought
thee out of
the land of
Egypt, out
of the house
of bondage.
3Thou
shalt have
no other
gods before
me.
4Thou
shalt not
make unto
thee any
graven
image, or
any
likeness of
any thing that is in
heaven
above, or
that is in
the earth
beneath, or
that is in
the water
under the
earth:
5Thou
shalt not
bow down
thyself to
them, nor
serve them:
for I the
LORD thy
God am a
jealous God,
visiting the
iniquity of
the fathers
upon the
children
unto the
third and
fourth generation of
them that
hate me;
6And
shewing
mercy unto
thousands of
them that
love me, and
keep my
commandments.
7Thou
shalt not
take the
name of the
LORD thy God
in vain; for
the LORD
will not
hold him
guiltless
that taketh
his name in
vain.
8Remember
the sabbath
day, to keep
it holy.
9Six
days shalt
thou labour,
and do all
thy work:
10But
the seventh
day is the
sabbath of
the LORD thy
God: in
it thou
shalt not do
any work,
thou, nor
thy son, nor
thy
daughter,
thy
manservant,
nor thy
maidservant,
nor thy
cattle, nor
thy stranger
that is within
thy gates:
11For in six
days the
LORD made
heaven and
earth, the
sea, and all
that in
them is,
and rested
the seventh
day:
wherefore
the LORD
blessed the
sabbath day,
and hallowed
it.
12Honour
thy father
and thy
mother: that
thy days may
be long upon
the land
which the
LORD thy God
giveth thee.
13Thou
shalt not
kill.
14Thou
shalt not
commit
adultery.
15Thou
shalt not
steal.
16Thou
shalt not
bear false
witness
against thy
neighbour.
17Thou
shalt not
covet thy
neighbour's
house, thou
shalt not
covet thy
neighbour's
wife, nor
his
manservant,
nor his
maidservant,
nor his ox,
nor his ass,
nor any
thing that is thy
neighbour's.
18And
all the
people saw
the
thunderings,
and the
lightnings,
and the
noise of the
trumpet, and
the mountain
smoking: and
when the
people saw it,
they
removed, and
stood afar
off.
19And
they said
unto Moses,
Speak thou
with us, and
we will
hear: but
let not God
speak with
us, lest we
die.
20And
Moses said
unto the
people, Fear
not: for God
is come to
prove you,
and that his
fear may be
before your
faces, that
ye sin not.
21And
the people
stood afar
off, and
Moses drew
near unto
the thick
darkness
where God was.
22And
the LORD
said unto
Moses, Thus
thou shalt
say unto the
children of
Israel, Ye
have seen
that I have
talked with
you from
heaven.
23Ye
shall not
make with me
gods of
silver,
neither
shall ye
make unto
you gods of
gold.
24An
altar of
earth thou
shalt make
unto me, and
shalt
sacrifice
thereon thy
burnt
offerings,
and thy
peace
offerings,
thy sheep,
and thine
oxen: in all
places where
I record my
name I will
come unto
thee, and I
will bless
thee.
25And
if thou wilt
make me an
altar of
stone, thou
shalt not
build it of
hewn stone:
for if thou
lift up thy
tool upon
it, thou
hast
polluted it.
26Neither
shalt thou
go up by
steps unto
mine altar,
that thy
nakedness be
not
discovered
thereon.
