Revised Version 1895
1And MosesH4872 calledH7121 unto allH3605 IsraelH3478, and saidH559 unto them, HearH8085, O IsraelH3478, the statutesH2706 and the judgmentsH4941 whichH834 I speakH1696 in your earsH241 this dayH3117, that ye may learnH3925 them, and observeH8104 to doH6213 them. 2The LORDH3068 our GodH430 madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with us in HorebH2722. 3The LORDH3068 madeH3772 notH3808 this covenantH1285 with our fathersH1, but with usH3588, evenH3588 usH3588, who are allH3605 of usH3588 hereH6311 aliveH2416 this dayH3117. 4The LORDH3068 spake with youH6440 faceH6440 to faceH6440 in the mountH2022 outH6440 of the midstH8432 of the fireH784, 5(I stoodH5975 betweenH996 the LORDH3068 and youH3588 at that time, to shew youH3588 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068: for ye were afraidH3372 becauseH3588 of the fireH784, and wentH5927 notH3808 upH5927 intoH996 the mountH2022;) sayingH559, 6I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, whichH834 broughtH3318 thee outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, outH3318 of the houseH1004 of bondageH5650. 7Thou shalt have noneH3808 otherH312 godsH430 beforeH6440 meH6440. 8Thou shalt notH3808 makeH6213 unto thee a gravenH6459 imageH6459, the likenessH8544 of anyH3605 formH8544 that is in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, or that is in the earthH776 beneathH8478, or that is in the waterH4325 underH8478 the earthH776: 9thou shalt notH3808 bowH7812 downH7812 thyself unto them, norH3808 serveH5647 them: for I the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 am a jealousH7067 GodH430, visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 uponH5921 the childrenH1121, and uponH5921 the thirdH8029 and uponH5921 the fourthH7256 generationH8029 of them that hateH8130 meH5921; 10and shewing mercy unto thousandsH505, of them that loveH157 meH8104 and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687. 11Thou shalt notH3808 takeH5375 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in vainH7723: for the LORDH3068 will notH3808 hold him guiltless that taketh his nameH8034 in vainH7723. 12ObserveH8104 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, to keepH8104 it holyH6942, as the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 commandedH6680 thee. 13SixH8337 daysH3117 shalt thou labour, and doH6213 allH3605 thy workH4399: 14but the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is a sabbathH7676 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: in it thou shalt notH3808 doH6213 anyH3605 workH4399, thou, norH3808 thy sonH1121, norH3808 thy daughterH1323, norH3808 thy manservant norH3808 thy maidservantH519, norH3808 thine oxH7794, norH3808 thine ass, norH3808 anyH3605 of thy cattleH929, norH3808 thy strangerH1616 that is within thy gatesH8179; that thy manservant and thy maidservantH519 may restH5117 as wellH834 as thou. 15And thou shalt rememberH2142 that thou wast a servantH5650 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 broughtH3318 thee outH3318 thence by a mightyH2389 handH3027 and by a stretchedH5186 outH3318 armH2220: therefore the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 commandedH6680 thee to keepH6213 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117. 16Honour thy fatherH1 and thy motherH517, as the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 commandedH6680 thee: that thy daysH3117 may be longH3117, and that it may goH3190 wellH3190 with thee, uponH5921 the landH127 whichH834 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 giveth thee. 17Thou shalt do noH3808 murderH7523. 18NeitherH3808 shalt thou commitH5003 adulteryH5003. 19NeitherH3808 shalt thou stealH1589. 20NeitherH3808 shalt thou bear falseH7723 witnessH5707 againstH7453 thy neighbour. 21NeitherH3808 shalt thou covetH2530 thy neighbour’s wifeH802; neitherH3808 shalt thou desireH183 thy neighbour’s houseH1004, his fieldH7704, or his manservant, or his maidservantH519, his oxH7794, or his ass, or anyH3605 thingH3605 that is thy neighbour’s. 22TheseH428 wordsH1697 the LORDH3068 spake unto allH3605 your assemblyH6951 in the mountH2022 outH5921 of the midstH8432 of the fireH784, of the cloudH6051, and of the thickH6205 darknessH6205, with a greatH1419 voiceH6963: and he addedH3254 noH3808 moreH3254. And he wroteH3789 them uponH5921 twoH8147 tables of stoneH68, and gaveH5414 them unto meH413. 23And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when ye heardH8085 the voiceH6963 outH413 of the midstH8432 of the darknessH2822, whileH1961 the mountainH2022 did burnH1197 with fireH784, that ye cameH1961 nearH7126 unto meH413, evenH853 allH3605 the headsH7218 of your tribesH7626, and your eldersH2205; 24and ye saidH559, BeholdH2005, the LORDH3068 our GodH430 hath shewed usH3588 his gloryH3519 and his greatnessH1433, and weH3588 have heardH8085 his voiceH6963 outH7200 of the midstH8432 of the fireH784: weH3588 have seenH7200 this dayH3117 that GodH430 doth speakH1696 with manH120, and he liveth. 25NowH6258 therefore whyH4100 should weH587 dieH4191? for this greatH1419 fireH784 will consumeH398 usH3588: ifH518 weH587 hearH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430 anyH5750 moreH5750, then weH587 shall dieH4191. 26For who is there of allH3605 fleshH1320, that hath heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of the livingH2416 GodH430 speakingH1696 outH3605 of the midstH8432 of the fireH784, as weH3588 have, and livedH2421? 27GoH7126 thou nearH7126, and hearH8085 allH3605 that the LORDH3068 our GodH430 shall sayH559: and speakH1696 thou unto usH413 allH3605 that the LORDH3068 our GodH430 shall speakH1696 unto thee; and weH834 will hearH8085 it, and doH6213 it. 28And the LORDH3068 heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of your wordsH1697, when ye spake unto meH413; and the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto meH413, I have heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of the wordsH1697 of this peopleH5971, whichH834 they have spokenH1696 unto thee: they have wellH3190 saidH559 allH3605 that they have spokenH1696. 29OhH4310 that there were suchH2088 an heartH3824 in them, that they would fearH3372 meH5414, and keepH8104 allH3605 my commandmentsH4687 alwaysH5769, that it might be wellH3190 with them, and with their childrenH1121 for everH5769! 30GoH7725 sayH559 to them, ReturnH7725 ye to your tentsH168. 31But as for thee, standH5975 thou hereH6311 by meH413, and I will speakH1696 unto thee allH3605 the commandmentH4687, and the statutesH2706, and the judgmentsH4941, whichH834 thou shalt teachH3925 them, that they may doH6213 them in the landH776 whichH834 I giveH5414 them to possessH3423 it. 32Ye shall observeH8104 to doH6213 therefore as the LORDH3068 your GodH430 hath commandedH6680 youH834: ye shall notH3808 turnH5493 asideH5493 to the rightH3225 handH3225 or to the leftH8040. 33Ye shall walkH1870 in allH3605 the wayH1870 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 hath commandedH6680 youH834, that ye may liveH2421, and that it may be wellH2895 with youH834, and that ye may prolongH748 your daysH3117 in the landH776 whichH834 ye shall possessH3423.
