(20:1)
I [am] the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage
(20:2)
Thou shalt have no other gods before me
(20:3)
Thou 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:
(20:4)
Thou 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;, 47
(20:5)
And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments
(20:6)
Thou 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
(20:7)
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy
(20:8)
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
(20:9)
But 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:
(20:10)
For [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
(20:11)
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee
(20:12)
Thou shalt not kill
(20:13)
Thou shalt not commit adultery
(20:14)
Thou shalt not steal
(20:15)
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour
(20:16)
Thou 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
(20:17)
And 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

(20:19)
And 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
(20:20)
And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God [was].

Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold
(20:23)
An 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
(20:24)
And 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
(20:25)
Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not discovered thereon
