Exodus 20:11-21

111For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and everything that is in them, and He rested on the seventh day; for that reason the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

12“2Honor your father and your mother, so that your 3days may be prolonged on the land which the Lord your God gives you.

13“4You shall not murder.

14“5You shall not commit adultery.

15“6You shall not steal.

16“7You shall not 8give false testimony against your 9neighbor.

17“10You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; 11you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male slave, or his female slave, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

18And 12all the people were watching and hearing the 13thunder and the lightning flashes, and the sound of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it all, they trembled and stood at a distance. 1914Then they said to Moses, “Speak 15to us yourself and we will listen; but do not have God speak 16to us, or we will die!” 20However, Moses said to the people, “17Do not be afraid; for God has come in order 18to test you, and in order that 19the fear of Him may 20remain with you, so that you will not sin.” 21So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached 21the thick darkness where God was.
