The Ten Commandments
Exodus 20:1-17 And Elohim spoke all these words, saying:
2 " I am Yahweh your Elohim, who
brought you out of the land of Egypt,
out of the house of bondage.
3 " You shall have no other elohims before Me.
4 " You shall not make for yourself a carved
image, or any likeness of anything
that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under
the earth;
5 you shall not bow down to them nor serve them.
For I, Yahweh your Elohim, am
a jealous Elohim, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to
the third and fourth
generations of those who hate Me,
6 but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
7 " You shall not take the name of
Yahweh your Elohim in vain, for Yahweh will not hold
him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
8 " Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath
of Yahweh your Elohim. In it you shall do no work: you,
nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant,
nor your cattle,
nor your stranger who is within your gates.
11 For in six days Yahweh made the heavens
and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested
the seventh day. Therefore Yahweh blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
12 " Honor your father and your mother, that
your days may be long upon the land which Yahweh your
Elohim is giving you.
13 " You shall not murder.
14 " You shall not commit adultery.
15 " You shall not steal.
16 " You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
17 " You shall not covet your neighbor's
house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his
male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor
anything that is your neighbor's."
