katapi HOME Exodus 20:1-17 - The Decalogue.  Ex.20.1-17

20 1 And God spoke all these words, saying,

20 2 "I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

20 3 "You shall have no other gods before me.

20 4 "You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 20 5 you shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I Yahweh your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, 20 6 but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.

20 7 "You shall not take the name of Yahweh your God in vain; for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.

20 8 "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 20 9 Six days you shall labour, and do all your work; 20 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to Yahweh your God; in it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your manservant, or your maidservant, or your cattle, or the sojourner who is within your gates; 20 11 for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore Yahweh blessed the sabbath day and hallowed it.

20 12 "Honour your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which Yahweh your God gives you.

20 13 "You shall not kill.

20 14 "You shall not commit adultery.

20 15 "You shall not steal.

20 16 "You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour.

20 17 "You shall not covet your neighbour's house; you shall not covet your neighbour's wife, or his manservant, or his maidservant, or his ox, or his ass, or anything that is your neighbour's."
