¹ And God spoke all these words, saying,

² I^▵ am Jehovah thy God, who brought· thee ·out of the land of Egypt, out·​·of the house of servitude^*.

³ Thou shalt have^◦ no^◦ other gods before My faces.

⁴ Thou shalt not make to thee a graven image, nor^◦ any figure of what is in the heavens above, or what is in the earth beneath, or what is in the waters beneath the earth.

⁵ Thou shalt not bow· thyself ·down to them, nor serve them; for I^▵, Jehovah, thy God am a jealous God^◦, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the sons, on the third and on the fourth generation^* of^◦ those who hate Me;

⁶ and doing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

⁷ Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain; for Jehovah will not hold· him ·innocent who takes His name in vain.

⁸ Remember the Sabbath day, to keep· it ·holy.

⁹ Six days shalt thou serve, and do all thy work^▵*;

¹⁰ but the seventh day is the Sabbath of^◦ Jehovah thy God; thou shalt not do any work^▵, thou^◦, nor^◦ thy son nor^◦ thy daughter, thy manservant nor^◦ thy maidservant, nor^◦ thy beast, nor^◦ thy sojourner who is in thy gates;

¹¹ for in six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on^◦ the seventh day; therefore Jehovah blessed the Sabbath day, and made· it ·holy.

¹² Honor^◦ thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be prolonged upon the ground that Jehovah thy God is giving to thee.

¹³ Thou shalt not murder.

¹⁴ Thou shalt not commit·​·adultery.

¹⁵ Thou shalt not steal.

¹⁶ Thou shalt not answer against^◦ thy neighbor^▵ as a false witness^*.

^{17 14} Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s^▵ house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s^▵ wife, nor^◦ his manservant, nor^◦ his maidservant, nor^◦ his ox, nor^◦ his donkey, nor^◦ anything^◦ that is thy neighbor’s^▵.

^{18 15} And all the people saw the voices, and the torches, and the voice of the shophar^*, and the mountain smoking; and the people saw, and they quaked, and stood far·​·off.

^{19 16} And they said to^▵ Moses, Speak thou^◦ with us, and we will hear; and let not God Speak with us, lest perchance we die.

^{20 17} And Moses said to^▵ the people, Fear not; for God has come for the sake of tempting you, and so·​·that^◦ the fear of Him may be before your faces, that you sin not^▵.

^{21 18} And the people stood far·​·off, and Moses approached the dense·​·darkness where God was.

^{22 19} And Jehovah said to^▵ Moses, Thus shalt thou say to^▵ the sons of Israel, You^◦ have seen that I have spoken with you from the heavens.

^{23 20} You shall not make with Me gods of silver and gods of gold; you shall not make them to you.

^{24 21} An altar of ground thou shalt make to Me, and shalt sacrifice on it thy burnt·​·offerings, and thy peace·​·offerings, thy flocks, and thy herds; in every place where I shall cause My name to be remembered, I will come to thee, and I will bless thee.

^{25 22} And if thou make for Me an altar of stones, thou shalt not build it of hewn^◦ stones; for if thou move thy chisel on it, then thou wilt profane it.

^{26 23} And thou shalt not go·​·up on stairs on My altar, that thy nakedness be not revealed upon it.
