The Ten Commandments

(Exodus 20:1–17)
5
I am standing between YHWH and you, at that time, to declare the word of YHWH to you, for you have been afraid from the presence of the fire, and you have not gone up into the mountain; for [He] says:
6
I, YHWH, [am] your God who has brought you out from the land of Egypt, from a house of servants.
7
You have no other gods in My presence.
8
You do not make a carved image for yourself, any likeness which [is] in the heavens above, or which [is] in the earth beneath, or which [is] in the waters under the earth.
9
You do not bow yourself to them, nor serve them: for I, your God YHWH, [am] a zealous God, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, and on a third and on a fourth [generation] of those hating Me,
10
and doing kindness to thousands, of those loving Me and of those keeping My commands.
11
You do not take up the Name of your God YHWH for a vain thing, for YHWH does not acquit him who takes up His Name for a vain thing.

14
and the seventh day [is] a Sabbath to your God YHWH; you do not do any work, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your handmaid, and your ox, and your donkey, and all your livestock, and your sojourner who [is] within your gates, so that your manservant and your handmaid rest like yourself.
15
And you have remembered that you have been a servant in the land of Egypt, and your God YHWH brings you out from there by a strong hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore your God YHWH has commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
16
Honor your father and your mother, as your God YHWH has commanded you, so that your days are prolonged, and so that it is well with you on the ground which your God YHWH is giving to you.
17
You do not murder.
18
You do not commit adultery.
19
You do not steal.
20
You do not answer [with] a false testimony against your neighbor.
21
You do not desire your neighbor’s wife, nor do you covet your neighbor’s house, his field, and his manservant, and his handmaid, his ox, and his donkey, and anything which [is] your neighbor’s.

Moses Intercedes for the People

(Exodus 20:18–21; Hebrews 12:18–29)
22
YHWH has spoken these words to all your assembly in the mountain, out of the midst of the fire, [and] of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, [with] a great voice; and He has not added; and He writes them on two tablets of stone and gives them to me.
23
And it comes to pass, as you hear the voice out of the midst of the darkness and of the mountain burning with fire, that you come near to me, all [the] heads of your tribes and your elderly,
24
and say, Behold, our God YHWH has showed us His glory and His greatness; and we have heard His voice out of the midst of the fire; this day we have seen that God speaks with manand he has lived.
25
And now, why do we die? For this great fire consumes us if we add to hear the voice of our God YHWH anymorethen we have died.
26
For who of all flesh [is] he who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire like us, and lives?
27
Draw near and hear all that which our God YHWH says, and you, you speak to us all that which our God YHWH speaks to you, and we have listened and done it.
28
And YHWH hears the voice of your words in your speaking to me, and YHWH says to me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you; they have done well [in] all that they have spoken.
29
O that their heart had been thus to them, to fear Me and to keep My commands [for] all the days, that it may be well with them and with their sons for all time!
30
Go, say to them, Return for yourselves, to your tents;
31
and you, stand here with Me, and let Me speak to you all the command, and the statutes, and the judgments which you teach them, and they have done [them] in the land which I am giving to them to possess it.
32
And you have observed to do as your God YHWH has commanded you, you do not turn aside [to] the right or left;
33
in all the way which your God YHWH has commanded youwalk, so that you live, and [it is] well with you, and you have prolonged days in the land which you possess.”

The Ten Commandments

(Exodus 20:1–17)
5
(I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to show you the LORD’s word; for you were afraid because of the fire, and didn’t go up onto the mountain) saying,
6
I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
7
You shall have no other gods before me.
8
You shall not make a carved image for yourselfany likeness of what is in heaven above, or what is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
9
You shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me
10
and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
11
You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God;(a) for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.
12
Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the LORD your God commanded you.
13
You shall labor six days, and do all your work;
14
but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God, in which you shall not do any workneither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you.
15
You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
16
Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God commanded you, that your days may be long and that it may go well with you in the land which the LORD your God gives you.

Moses Intercedes for the People

(Exodus 20:18–21; Hebrews 12:18–29)
22
The LORD spoke these words to all your assembly on the mountain out of the middle of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice. He added no more. He wrote them on two stone tablets, and gave them to me.
23
When you heard the voice out of the middle of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
24
and you said, “Behold, the LORD our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the middle of the fire. We have seen today that God does speak with man, and he lives.
25
Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear the LORD our God’s voice any more, then we shall die.
26
For who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and lived?
27
Go near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say, and tell us all that the LORD our God tells you; and we will hear it, and do it.”
28
The LORD heard the voice of your words when you spoke to me; and the LORD said to me, “I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. They have well said all that they have spoken.
29
Oh that there were such a heart in them that they would fear me and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them and with their children forever!
30
Go tell them, ‘Return to your tents.’
31
But as for you, stand here by me, and I will tell you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess.”
32
You shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God has commanded you. You shall not turn away to the right hand or to the left.
33
You shall walk in all the way which the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.
