Exodus 20:11-21

11For in six days Adonai made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Thus Adonai blessed Yom Shabbat, and made it holy.

12“Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long upon the land which Adonai your God is giving you.

13“Do not murder.

14“Do not commit adultery.

15“Do not steal.

16“Do not bear false witness against your neighbor.

17“Do not covet your neighbor’s house, your neighbor’s wife, his manservant, his maidservant, his ox, his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s.”

18All the people witnessed the thundering and the lightning, and the sound of the shofar, and the mountain smoking. When the people saw it, they trembled and stood far off.

19So they said to Moses, “You, speak to us, and we will listen, but do not let God speak to us, or we will die.”

20So Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid, for God has come to test you, so that His fear may be in you, so that you do not sin.”

21The people stood far off, while Moses drew near to the thick darkness where God was.
