1
And God spoke all these words, saying:
2
"I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3
You shall have no other gods before Me.
4
"You shall not make for yourself a 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;
5
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,
6
but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
7
"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.
