Deuteronomy 5:1-22
1Now Moses summoned all Israel and said to them:
“Listen, Israel, to the statutes and ordinances which I am speaking today 1for you to hear, so that you may learn them and be careful to do them. 2The Lord our God made 2a covenant with us at Horeb. 33The Lord did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, all 4of us who are alive here today. 4The Lord spoke with you 5face to face at the mountain 6from the midst of the fire, 5while 7I was standing between the Lord and you at that time, to declare to you the word of the Lord; 8for you were afraid because of the fire, and you did not go up on the mountain. 9He said,
6‘10I am the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of 11slavery.
7‘12You shall have no other gods besides Me.
8‘13You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any 14likeness of what is in heaven above 15or on the earth beneath 16or in the water under the earth. 9You shall not worship them nor serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, 17inflicting the 18punishment of the fathers on the children, 19even on the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 10but 20showing 21favor to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
11‘22You shall not take the name of the Lord your God 23in vain, for the Lord will not 24leave unpunished the one who takes His name in vain.
12‘25Keep the Sabbath day to treat it as holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. 13For six days you 26shall labor and do all your work, 14but 27the seventh day is a Sabbath of the Lord your God; you shall not do any work that day, you or your son or your daughter, or your male slave or your female slave, or your ox, your donkey, or any of your cattle, or your 28resident who 29stays with you, so that your male slave and your female slave may rest as well as you. 1530And you shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm; therefore the Lord your God commanded you to 31celebrate the Sabbath day.
16‘32Honor your father and your mother, just as the Lord your God has commanded you, 33so that your days may be prolonged and that it may go well for you on the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
18‘35You shall not commit adultery.
20‘37You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
21‘38You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor desire your neighbor’s house, his field, his male slave or his female slave, his ox, his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.’
22“These words the Lord spoke to your whole assembly at the mountain from the midst of the fire, from the cloud, and from the thick darkness, with a great voice, and He added nothing more. 39He wrote them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me.
