Deuteronomy 5:4-22

4The Lord spoke face to face with you at the mountain, from the middle of the fire.

5(I was standing between the Lord and you at that time to reveal to you the message of the Lord, because you were afraid of the fire and would not go up the mountain.) He said:

6“I am the Lord your God, he who brought you from the land of Egypt, from the place of slavery.

7You must not have any other gods besides me.

8You must not make for yourself an image of anything in heaven above, on earth below, or in the waters beneath.

9You must not worship or serve them, for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God. I punish the sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons for the sin of the fathers who reject me,

10but I show covenant faithfulness to the thousands who choose me and keep my commandments.

11You must not make use of the name of the Lord your God for worthless purposes, for the Lord will not exonerate anyone who abuses his name that way.

12Be careful to observe the Sabbath day just as the Lord your God has commanded you.

13You are to work and do all your tasks in six days,

14but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. On that day you must not do any work, you, your son, your daughter, your male slave, your female slave, your ox, your donkey, any other animal, or the foreigner who lives with you, so that your male and female slaves, like yourself, may have rest.

15Recall that you were slaves in the land of Egypt and that the Lord your God brought you out of there by strength and power. That is why the Lord your God has commanded you to observe the Sabbath day.

16Honor your father and your mother just as the Lord your God has commanded you to do, so that your days may be extended and that it may go well with you in the land that he is about to give you.

17You must not murder.

18You must not commit adultery.

19You must not steal.

20You must not offer false testimony against another.

21You must not desire another man’s wife, nor should you crave his house, his field, his male and female servants, his ox, his donkey, or anything else he owns.”

22The Lord said these things to your entire assembly at the mountain from the middle of the fire, the cloud, and the darkness with a loud voice, and that was all he said. Then he inscribed the words on two stone tablets and gave them to me.
