Exodus 20:2-11
2“1I am the LordH3068 your GodH430, 2whoH834 broughtH3318 you out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, out of the houseH1004 of 3slaveryH5650.
3“4You shall haveH1961 noH3808 otherH312 5godsH430 6beforeH5921H6440 Me.
4“7You shall not makeH6213 for yourself 8an idolH6459, or anyH3605 likenessH8544 of whatH834 is in heavenH8064 aboveH4480H4605 or on the earthH776 beneathH8478 or in the waterH4325 underH8478 the earthH776. 59You shall not worshipH7812 them or serveH5647 them; for I, the LordH3068 your GodH430, am a 10jealousH7067 GodH410, 11visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 on the childrenH1121, on the thirdH8029 and the fourthH7256 generations of those who hateH8130 Me, 6but showingH6213 lovingkindnessH2617 to 12thousandsH505, to those who loveH157 Me and keepH8104 My commandmentsH4687.
7“13You shall not takeH5375 the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 your GodH430 in vainH7723, for the LordH3068 will not 14leaveH5352 him unpunishedH5352 whoH834 takesH5375 His nameH8034 in vainH7723.
8“RememberH2142 15the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, to keepH6942 it holyH6942. 916SixH8337 daysH3117 you shall laborH5647 and doH6213 allH3605 your workH4399, 10but the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is a sabbathH7676 of the LordH3068 your GodH430; in it 17you shall not doH6213 anyH3605 workH4399, you or your sonH1121 or your daughterH1323, your maleH5650 or your femaleH519 servantH5650H519 or your cattleH929 or your sojournerH1616 whoH834 18stays with you. 1119For in sixH8337 daysH3117 the LordH3068 madeH6213 the heavensH8064 and the earthH776, the seaH3220 and allH3605 that is in them, and restedH5117 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117; thereforeH5921H3651 the LordH3068 blessedH1288 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117 and madeH6942 it holyH6942.
