Chapter 20

1


 

  And God spake all these words, saying,  

 

 

-

2


 

  I [am] the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.  

 

 

-

3


 

  Thou shalt have no other gods before me.  

 

 

-

4


 

  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:  

 

 

-

5


 

  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;  

 

 

-

6


 

  And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.  

 

 

-

7


 

  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.  

 

 

-

8


 

  Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:  

 

 

-

10


 

  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:  

 

 

-

11


 

  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.  

 

 

-

12


 

  Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.  

 

 

-

13


 

  Thou shalt not kill.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Thou shalt not commit adultery.  

 

 

-

15


 

  Thou shalt not steal.  

 

 

-

16


 

  Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.  

 

 

-

17


 

  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.  

 

 

-

18


 

  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.  

 

 

-

19


 

  And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.  

 

 

-

20


 

  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.  

 

 

-

21


 

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

 

 

-

22


 

  And 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.  

 

 

-

23


 

  Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold.  

 

 

-

24


 

  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.  

 

 

-

25


 

  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.  

 

 

-

26


 

  Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not discovered thereon.
