20:1 And God 430 spake 1696 8762 all these words 1697, saying 559 8800,

20:2 I [am] the LORD 3068 thy God 430, which have brought 3318 8689 thee out of the land 776 of Egypt 4714, out of the house 1004 of bondage 5650.(bondage: Heb. servants)

20:3 Thou shalt have no other 312 gods 430 before me 6440.

20:4 Thou shalt not make 6213 8799 unto thee any graven image 6459, or any likeness 8544 [of any thing] that 834 [is] in heaven 8064 above 4605, or that [is] in the earth 776 beneath, or that [is] in the water 4325 under the earth 776:

20:5 Thou shalt not bow down 7812 8691 thyself to them, nor serve 5647 8714 them: for I the LORD 3068 thy God 430 [am] a jealous 7067 God 410, visiting 6485 8802 the iniquity 5771 of the fathers 1 upon the children 1121 unto the third 8029 and fourth 7256 [generation] of them that hate 8130 8802 me;

20:6 And shewing 6213 8802 mercy 2617 unto thousands 505 of them that love 157 8802 me, and keep 8104 8802 my commandments 4687.

20:7 Thou shalt not take 5375 8799 the name 8034 of the LORD 3068 thy God 430 in vain 7723; for the LORD 3068 will not hold him guiltless 5352 8762 that taketh 5375 8799 his name 8034 in vain 7723.

20:8 Remember 2142 8800 the sabbath 7676 day 3117, to keep it holy 6942 8763.

20:9 Six 8337 days 3117 shalt thou labour 5647 8799, and do 6213 8804 all thy work 4399:

20:10 But the seventh 7637 day 3117 [is] the sabbath 7676 of the LORD 3068 thy God 430: [in it] thou shalt not do 6213 8799 any work 4399, thou, nor thy son 1121, nor thy daughter 1323, thy manservant 5650, nor thy maidservant 519, nor thy cattle 929, nor thy stranger 1616 that [is] within thy gates 8179:

20:11 For [in] six 8337 days 3117 the LORD 3068 made 6213 8804 heaven 8064 and earth 776, the sea 3220, and all that in them [is], and rested 5117 8799 the seventh 7637 day 3117: wherefore the LORD 3068 blessed 1288 8765 the sabbath 7676 day 3117, and hallowed 6942 8762 it.

20:12 Honour 3513 8761 thy father 1 and thy mother 517: that thy days 3117 may be long 748 8686 upon the land 127 which the LORD 3068 thy God 430 giveth 5414 8802 thee.

20:13 Thou shalt not kill 7523 8799.

20:14 Thou shalt not commit adultery 5003 8799.

20:15 Thou shalt not steal 1589 8799.

20:16 Thou shalt not bear 6030 8799 false 8267 witness 5707 against thy neighbour 7453.

20:17 Thou shalt not covet 2530 8799 thy neighbour's 7453 house 1004, thou shalt not covet 2530 8799 thy neighbour's 7453 wife 802, nor his manservant 5650, nor his maidservant 519, nor his ox 7794, nor his ass 2543, nor any thing that [is] thy neighbour's 7453.

20:18 And all the people 5971 saw 7200 8802 the thunderings 6963, and the lightnings 3940, and the noise 6963 of the trumpet 7782, and the mountain 2022 smoking 6226: and when the people 5971 saw 7200 8799 [it], they removed 5128 8799, and stood 5975 8799 afar off 7350.

20:19 And they said 559 8799 unto Moses 4872, Speak 1696 8761 thou with us, and we will hear 8085 8799: but let not God 430 speak 1696 8762 with us, lest we die 4191 8799.

20:20 And Moses 4872 said 559 8799 unto the people 5971, Fear 3372 8799 not: for God 430 is come 935 8804 to 5668 prove 5254 8763 you, and that his fear 3374 may be before your faces 6440, that ye sin 2398 8799 not.

20:21 And the people 5971 stood 5975 8799 afar off 7350, and Moses 4872 drew near 5066 8738 unto the thick darkness 6205 where God 430 [was].

20:22 And the LORD 3068 said 559 8799 unto Moses 4872, Thus thou shalt say 559 8799 unto the children 1121 of Israel 3478, Ye have seen 7200 8804 that I have talked 1696 8765 with you from heaven 8064.

20:23 Ye shall not make 6213 8799 with me gods 430 of silver 3701, neither shall ye make 6213 8799 unto you gods 430 of gold 2091.

20:24 An altar 4196 of earth 127 thou shalt make 6213 8799 unto me, and shalt sacrifice 2076 8804 thereon thy burnt offerings 5930, and thy peace offerings 8002, thy sheep 6629, and thine oxen 1241: in all places 4725 where I record 2142 8686 my name 8034 I will come 935 8799 unto thee, and I will bless 1288 8765 thee.

20:25 And if thou wilt make 6213 8799 me an altar 4196 of stone 68, thou shalt not build 1129 8799 it of hewn stone 1496: for if thou lift up 5130 8689 thy tool 2719 upon it, thou hast polluted 2490 8762 it.(build…: Heb. build them with hewing)

20:26 Neither shalt thou go up 5927 8799 by steps 4609 unto mine altar 4196, that thy nakedness 6172 be not discovered 1540 8735 thereon.
