Exodus 20:13-26

13“1You shall not murderH7523.

14“2You shall not commitH5003 adulteryH5003.

15“3You shall not stealH1589.

16“4You shall not bearH6030 falseH8267 witnessH5707 against your 5neighborH7453.

17“6You shall not covetH2530 your neighbor’sH7453 houseH1004; 7you shall not covetH2530 your neighbor’sH7453 wifeH802 or his maleH5650 servantH5650 or his femaleH519 servantH519 or his oxH7794 or his donkeyH2543 or anythingH3605 that belongs to your neighborH7453.”

18 8AllH3605 the peopleH5971 perceivedH7200 the 9thunderH6963 and the lightningH3940 flashesH3940 and the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782 and the mountainH2022 smokingH6226; and when the peopleH5971 sawH7200 it, they trembledH5128 and stoodH5975 at a distanceH7350. 19 10Then they saidH559 to MosesH4872, “SpeakH1696 11to us yourselfH859 and we will listenH8085; but let not GodH430 speakH1696 12to us, orH6435 we will dieH4191.” 20MosesH4872 saidH559 to the peopleH5971, “13Do not be afraidH3372; for GodH430 has comeH935 in orderH5668 14to testH5254 you, and in orderH5668 that 15the fearH3374 of Him may 16remainH1961 H6440 with you, so that you may not sinH2398.” 21So the peopleH5971 stoodH5975 at a distanceH7350, while MosesH4872 approachedH5066 17the thickH6205 cloudH6205 whereH834 H8033 GodH430 was.

22Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “ThusH3541 you shall sayH559 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, ‘You yourselvesH864 have seenH7200 that 18I have spokenH1696 19to you from heavenH8064. 23 20You shall not makeH6213 other gods besidesH854 Me; 21godsH430 of silverH3701 or godsH430 of goldH2091, you shall not makeH6213 for yourselvesH864. 24You shall makeH6213 22an altarH4196 of earthH127 for Me, and you shall sacrificeH2076 on it your 23burntH5930 offeringsH5930 and your 24peaceH8002 offeringsH8002, 25your sheepH6629 and your oxenH1241; in everyH3605 placeH4725 26whereH834 I cause My nameH8034 to be rememberedH2142, I will comeH935 to you and blessH1288 you. 25IfH518 you makeH6213 an altarH4196 of stoneH68 for Me, 27you shall not buildH1129 it of cutH1496 stonesH1496, for if you wieldH5130 your toolH2719 on it, you will profaneH2490 it. 26And you shall not goH5927 up by stepsH4609 to My altarH4196, soH834 that 28your nakednessH6172 will not be exposedH1540 on it.’
