OET (OET-LV) You_have_known the commands:
you_may_ not _murder, you_may_ not _commit_adultery, you_may_ not _steal, you_may_ not _give_false_testimony, you_may_ not _defraud:

τὰς ἐντολὰς οἶδας: μὴ φονεύσῃς, μὴ μοιχεύσῃς, μὴ κλέψῃς, μὴ ψευδομαρτυρήσῃς, μὴ ἀποστερήσῃς, τίμα τὸν πατέρα σου καὶ τὴν μητέρα
the commandments ˱you˲_/have/_known not ˱you˲_/may/_murder not ˱you˲_/may/_commit_adultery not ˱you˲_/may/_steal not ˱you˲_/may/_give_false_testimony not ˱you˲_/may/_defraud /be/_honoring the father ˱of˲_you and the mother
Here Jesus quotes commands from the law that God gave to Moses. The first four commands and the sixth command come from either Exodus 20:12–16 or Deuteronomy 5:16–20. The fifth command is not directly quoted from the law that God gave Moses, but it may be a summary of the command found in Exodus 20:17 or Deuteronomy 5:21. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could format these words in a different way and include this information in a footnote. Alternate translation: “You know the commandments—as you can read in the Scriptures, ‘Do not kill, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not testify falsely, do not defraud, honor your father and your mother’”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
μὴ φονεύσῃς, μὴ μοιχεύσῃς, μὴ κλέψῃς, μὴ ψευδομαρτυρήσῃς, μὴ ἀποστερήσῃς, τίμα τὸν πατέρα σου καὶ τὴν μητέρα
not ˱you˲_/may/_murder not ˱you˲_/may/_commit_adultery not ˱you˲_/may/_steal not ˱you˲_/may/_give_false_testimony not ˱you˲_/may/_defraud /be/_honoring the father ˱of˲_you and the mother
Since in these commands God is addressing each specific person who is part of God’s people, the commands are singular.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
μὴ μοιχεύσῃς
not not ˱you˲_/may/_commit_adultery
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of adultery, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “do not be an adulterer or adulteress” or “do not do what is adulterous”
10:19 Jesus’ reply seems strange to Christians who are familiar with Paul’s teaching on this subject (e.g., Rom 3:20; Gal 2:16). In naming five of the Ten Commandments Jesus was not implying that the man could earn eternal life by keeping them; he was telling him what God’s standards are and allowing the man to evaluate his own performance. Truly loving God with all one’s heart, soul, mind, and strength, and one’s neighbor as one’s self (Mark 12:30-31), requires trusting in God’s grace, accepting Jesus’ sacrificial death on our behalf (10:45; 14:24), and keeping his commands (John 15:10; 1 Jn 2:4; 3:22).

OET (OET-RV) You know the commandments: don’t murder, don’t commit adultery, don’t steal, don’t lie about others, don’t defraud others, and honour your parents.”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
