Exodus 20:2-11

2I am Jehovah thy 1GodH430, who have broughtH3318 thee out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, out of the houseH1004 of bondage.

3Thou shalt have no otherH312 2godsH430 before me.

4Thou shalt not makeH6213 thyself any graven imageH6459, or any formH8544 of what is in the heavensH8064 above, or what is in the earthH776 beneath, or what is in the watersH4325 under the earthH776:

5thou shalt not bowH7812 down thyself to them, nor serveH5647 them; for I, Jehovah thy 3GodH430, am a jealousH7067 4GodH430, visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 upon the sonsH1121 to the thirdH8029 and to the fourthH7256 [generationH8029] of them that hateH8130 me,

6and shewing mercy unto thousandsH505 of them that loveH157 me and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687.

7Thou shalt not idly utter the nameH8034 of Jehovah thy 5GodH430; for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that idly uttereth his nameH8034.

8RememberH2142 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117 to hallow it.

9SixH8337 daysH3117 shalt thou labour, and do all thy workH4399;

10but the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is the sabbathH7676 of Jehovah thy 6GodH430: thou shalt not do any workH4399, thou, nor thy sonH1121, nor thy daughterH1323, thy bondman, nor thy handmaid, nor thy cattleH929, nor thy stranger that is within thy gatesH8179.

11For in sixH8337 daysH3117 Jehovah madeH6213 the heavensH8064 and the earthH776, the seaH3220, and all that is in them, and restedH5117 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117; thereforeH3651 Jehovah blessedH1288 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, and hallowed it.
