‏ Exodus 20

The Ten Commandments

1Then God spoke all these words, saying,

2 a“I am the Lord your God, bwho brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of ▼
▼ Lit slaves
slavery.

3 d“You shall have no other egods ▼
▼ Or besides Me
before Me.

4 g“You shall not make for yourself ▼
▼ Or a graven image
an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. 5 i“You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jjealous God, kvisiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6but showing lovingkindness to lthousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

7 m“You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not ▼
▼ Or hold him guiltless
leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain.

8“Remember othe sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 p“Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God; in it qyou shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who ▼
▼ Lit is in your gates
stays with you. 11 s“For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.

12 t“Honor your father and your mother, that your udays may be prolonged in the land which the Lord your God gives you.

13 v“You shall not murder.

14 w“You shall not commit adultery.

15 x“You shall not steal.

16 y“You shall not bear false witness against your zneighbor.

17 aa“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; abyou shall not covet your neighbor’s wife or his male servant or his female servant or his ox or his donkey or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

18 acAll the people perceived the ▼
▼ Lit sounds
thunder and the lightning flashes and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood at a distance. 19 aeThen they said to Moses, “Speak ▼
▼ Lit with
to us yourself and we will listen; but let not God speak ▼
▼ Lit with
to us, or we will die.” 20Moses said to the people, ah“Do not be afraid; for God has come in order aito test you, and in order that ajthe fear of Him may ▼
▼ Lit be before
remain with you, so that you may not sin.” 21So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached althe thick cloud where God was.

22Then the Lord said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ‘You yourselves have seen that amI have spoken ▼
▼ Lit with
to you from heaven. 23‘ aoYou shall not make other gods besides Me; apgods of silver or gods of gold, you shall not make for yourselves. 24‘You shall make aqan altar of earth for Me, and you shall sacrifice on it your arburnt offerings and your aspeace offerings, atyour sheep and your oxen; in every place auwhere I cause My name to be remembered, I will come to you and bless you. 25‘If you make an altar of stone for Me, avyou shall not build it of cut stones, for if you wield your tool on it, you will profane it. 26‘And you shall not go up by steps to My altar, so that awyour nakedness will not be exposed on it.’
