UST EXO Chapter 20

20Then God spoke these words to the Israelites. 2“I am Yahweh your God, the one you worship. I am the one who brought you out of the land of Egypt. I am the one who freed you from being slaves there. 3Do not worship any god other than me.

4Do not carve yourself a figure that looks like anything in the sky or that is on the ground or that is in the water under the ground. 5Do not bow down to any idol or worship it, because I am Yahweh your God. I demand that you worship me only! I will punish the descendants of those who hate me. I will punish their descendants for three, even four generations. 6However, I will faithfully love thousands of generations of those who love me and obey my commandments.

7Do not use my name carelessly, because I am Yahweh your God, and I will certainly punish those who use my name for wrong purposes.

8Remember that the seventh day of every week belongs to me. 9There are six days each week for you to do all your work. 10But the seventh day is a day of rest, a day dedicated to me, Yahweh your God. On that day you must not do any work. Neither you nor your sons, your daughters, your male or female slaves, your livestock, and not even foreigners who are living in your country may work. 11Do this because I, Yahweh, created the sky, the earth, the ocean, and everything that is in them in six days. Then I stopped my work of creating everything and rested on the seventh day. That is the reason that I, Yahweh, have blessed the rest day and set it apart to be a sacred day.

12Honor your father and your mother, in order that you may live a long time in the land that I, Yahweh your God, will give you.

13Do not murder anyone.

14Do not commit adultery with anyone.

15Do not steal anything.

16Do not falsely accuse anyone of committing a crime.

17Do not covet someone else’s house, someone else’s wife, someone else’s male or female slave, someone else’s livestock, someone else’s donkeys, or anything else that another person owns.”

18When the people heard the thunder and saw the lightning, and when they heard the sound of the horn and saw the smoke on the mountain, they were afraid and trembled. They stood a safe distance away 19and said to Moses, “You talk to us! We will listen! But do not let God speak to us anymore. We are afraid that if he speaks anymore to us, we will die.”

20Moses replied to the people, “Do not be afraid! God has come to observe how you will behave. He wants you to honor him and to not sin.”

21Then, as the people watched from a distance, Moses went close to the black cloud where God was.

22Yahweh said to Moses, “Say this to the Israelite people, ‘You have heard how I, Yahweh, have spoken to you from heaven. 23Therefore, do not make any gods of silver or gold that you will worship instead of me. 24Make an altar out of earth for me. Sacrifice your burnt offerings on it, your offerings to promise friendship with me, and also your sheep and oxen. Worship me in any place that I choose for you to honor me; if you do that, I will come to you and bless you. 25If you build an altar for me out of stone, do not cut the stones because the cutting tool will profane the altar. 26Do not climb steps to my altar so that no one may see your genitals.’
