7
Do not have other gods besides Me.
8
Do not make an idol for yourself in the shape of anything in the heavens above or on the earth below or in the waters under the earth.
9
You must not bow down to them or worship them, because I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the fathers' sin to the third and fourth [generations] of those who hate Me,
10
but showing faithful love to a thousand [generations] of those who love Me and keep My commands.
11
Do not misuse the name of the Lord your God, because the Lord will punish anyone who misuses His name.
12
Be careful to dedicate the Sabbath day, as the Lord your God has commanded you.
13
You are to labor six days and do all your work,
14
but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. You must not do any work-you, your son or daughter, your male or female slave, your ox or donkey, any of your livestock, or the foreigner who lives within your gates, so that your male and female slaves may rest as you do.
15
Remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out of there with a strong hand and an outstretched arm. That is why the Lord your God has commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
16
Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and so that you may prosper in the land the Lord your God is giving you.
