The Ten Commandments
I. Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
II. Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or
any likeness of any thing that is in heaven
above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that
is in the waters beneath the earth: Thou shalt
not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them:
for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting
the iniquity of the fathers upon the children
unto the third and fourth generation of them
that hate me, And shewing mercy unto thousands
of them that love me and keep my commandments.
III. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy
God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him
guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
IV. Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the
Lord thy God hath commanded thee. Six days thou
shalt labour, and do all thy work: But the
seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy
son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor
thy maidservant, nor thine ox,nor thine ass,
nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is
within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy
maidservant may rest as well as thou. And
remember that thou wast a servant in the land
of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought
thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a
stretched out arm: therefore the Lord thy God
commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
V. Honour thy father and thy mother, as the Lord
thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may
be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee,
in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
VI. Thou shalt not kill.
VII. Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
VIII. Neither shalt thou steal.
IX. Neither shalt thou bear false witness against
thy neighbour.
X. Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour's wife,
neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour's house,
his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant,
his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy
neighbour's.
