the L
ORD
thy God hath commanded thee.
13
Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
14
But
the seventh day
is
the sabbath of the L
ORD
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.
15
And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and
that
the
L
ORD
thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore
the L
ORD
thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
16
Honour thy father and thy mother, as the L
ORD
thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days
may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the L
ORD
thy God giveth
thee.
17
Thou shalt not kill.
18
Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19
Neither shalt thou steal.
20
Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
21
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.
22
These words the L
ORD
spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire,
of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote
them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.
23
And it came to pass, when ye heard
the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire,) that ye came near
unto me,
even
all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
24
And ye said, Behold, the L
ORD
our
God hath shewed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of
the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth.
25
Now therefore why
should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the L
ORD
our God any
more, then we shall die.
26
For who
is there of
all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God
speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we
have,
and lived?
27
Go thou near, and hear all that the
L
ORD
our God shall say: and speak thou unto us all that the L
ORD
our God shall speak unto thee;
and we will hear
it,
and do
it.
28
And the L
ORD
heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto
me; and the L
ORD
said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have
spoken unto thee: they have well said all that they have spoken.
29
O that there were such an 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 for ever!
30
Go say to them, Get you into your tents again.
31
But
as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes,
and the judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do
them
in the land which I give
them to possess it.
32
Ye shall observe to do therefore as the L
ORD
your God hath commanded you:
ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
33
Ye shall walk in all the ways which the
L
ORD
your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and
that it may be
well with you, and
that
ye may prolong
your
days in the land which ye shall possess.
