2The LordH3068 our GodH430 madeH3772 1a covenantH1285 with us at HorebH2722. 32The LordH3068 did not makeH3772 thisH2088 covenantH1285 with our fathersH1, but with us, with allH3605 thoseH428 of 3us aliveH2416 hereH6311 todayH3117. 4The LordH3068 spokeH1696 to you 4faceH6440 to faceH6440 at the mountainH2022 5from the midstH8432 of the fireH784, 5while 6I was standingH5975 betweenH996 the LordH3068 and you at that timeH6256, to declareH5046 to you the wordH1697 of the LordH3068; 7for you were afraidH3372 becauseH4480H6440 of the fireH784 and did not goH5927 up the mountainH2022. 8He saidH559,
6‘9I am the LordH3068 your GodH430 whoH834 broughtH3318 you out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, out of the houseH1004 of 10slaveryH5650.
7‘11You shall haveH1961 noH3808 otherH312 godsH430 12beforeH6440 Me.
8‘13You shall not makeH6213 for yourself 14an idolH6459, or anyH3605 likenessH8544 of whatH834 is in heavenH8064 aboveH4480H4605 15or on the earthH776 beneathH4480H8478 16or in the waterH4325 underH8478 the earthH776. 9You shall not worshipH7812 them or serveH5647 them; for I, the LordH3068 your GodH430, am a jealousH7067 GodH410, 17visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 on the childrenH1121, and on the thirdH8029 and the fourthH7256 generations of those who hateH8130 Me, 10but 18showingH6213 lovingkindnessH2617 to thousandsH505, to those who loveH157 Me and keepH8104 My commandmentsH4687.
11‘19You shall not takeH5375 the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 your GodH430 in vainH7723, for the LordH3068 will not 20leaveH5352 him unpunishedH5352 whoH834 takesH5375 His nameH8034 in vainH7723.
12‘21ObserveH8104 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117 to keepH6942 it holyH6942, as the LordH3068 your GodH430 commandedH6680 you. 13SixH8337 daysH3117 you shall laborH5647 and doH6213 allH3605 your workH4399, 14but 22the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is a sabbathH7676 of the LordH3068 your GodH430; in it you shall not doH6213 anyH3605 workH4399, you or your sonH1121 or your daughterH1323 or your maleH5650 servantH5650 or your femaleH519 servantH519 or your oxH7794 or your donkeyH2543 or anyH3605 of your cattleH929 or your sojournerH1616 whoH834 23stays with you, soH4616 that your maleH5650 servantH5650 and your femaleH519 servantH519 may restH5117 as well as you. 1524You shall rememberH2142 that you were a slaveH5650 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and the LordH3068 your GodH430 broughtH3318 you out of thereH8033 by a mightyH2389 handH3027 and by an outstretchedH5186 armH2220; thereforeH5921H3651 the LordH3068 your GodH430 commandedH6680 you to observeH6213 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117.
16‘25HonorH3513 your fatherH1 and your motherH517, as the LordH3068 your GodH430 has commandedH6680 you, 26that your daysH3117 may be prolongedH748 and that it may goH3190 wellH3190 with you on the landH127 whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 givesH5414 you.
17‘27You shall not murderH7523.
18‘28You shall not commitH5003 adulteryH5003.
19‘29You shall not stealH1589.
20‘30You shall not bearH6030 falseH7723 witnessH5707 against your neighborH7453.
21‘31You shall not covetH2530 your neighbor’sH7453 wifeH802, and you shall not desireH183 your neighbor’sH7453 houseH1004, his fieldH7704 or his maleH5650 servantH5650 or his femaleH519 servantH519, his oxH7794 or his donkeyH2543 or anythingH3605 that belongs to your neighborH7453.’
22“TheseH428 wordsH1697 the LordH3068 spokeH1696 to allH3605 your assemblyH6951 at the mountainH2022 from the midstH8432 of the fireH784, of the cloudH6051 and of the thickH6205 gloomH6205, with a greatH1419 voiceH6963, and He addedH3254 noH3808 moreH3254. 32He wroteH3789 them on twoH8147 tabletsH3871 of stoneH68 and gaveH5414 them to me.
