Exodus 20:11-21
111For 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“2Honor your father and your mother, that your 3days may be prolonged in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
14“5You shall not commit adultery.
16“7You shall not bear false witness against your 8neighbor.
17“9You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; 10you 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.”
1811All the people perceived the 12thunder 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. 1913Then they said to Moses, “Speak 14to us yourself and we will listen; but let not God speak 15to us, or we will die.” 20Moses said to the people, “16Do not be afraid; for God has come in order 17to test you, and in order that 18the fear of Him may 19remain with you, so that you may not sin.” 21So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached 20the thick cloud where God was.
