Ten
commandments
If you like to be on the way
to God you have to know and
respect the
following ten commandments:
You shall have no other
Gods before me.
You shall not make for
yourself any carved
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; you
shall not bow 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
to the third and fourth
generations of those who
hate me, but showing
mercy to thousands, to
those who love Me and
keep My commandments.
You shall not take the
name of the Lord your
God in vain, for the
Lord will not hold him
guiltless who takes His
name in vain.
Remember the Sabbath
day, to keep it holy.
Six days you shall labor
and do all your work,
but the seventh day is
the Sabbath of the Lord
your God.
Honor your father and
your mother, that your
days may be long upon
the land which the Lord
your God is giving you.
You shall not murder.
You shall not commit
adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false
witness against your
neighbor.
You shall not covet your
neighbor’s house; you
shall not covet your
neighbor’s wife, nor his
manservant, nor his
maidservant, nor his ox,
nor his donkey, nor
anything that is your
neighbor’s."
