Exodus 20

¹Then God spake all these wordes, saying,

²I am the Lord thy God, which haue brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

³Thou shalt haue none other Gods before me.

⁴Thou shalt make thee no grauen image, neither any similitude of things that are in heauen aboue, neither that are in the earth beneath, nor that are in the waters vnder the earth.

⁵Thou shalt not bowe downe to them, neither serue them: for I am the Lord thy God, a ielous God, visiting the iniquitie of the fathers vpon the children, vpon the third generation and vpon the fourth of them that hate me:

⁶And shewing mercie vnto thousandes to them that loue me, and keepe my commandemets.

⁷Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vaine: for the Lord will not hold him guiltles that taketh his Name in vayne.

⁸Remember the Sabbath day, to keepe it holy.

⁹Sixe dayes shalt thou labour, and doe all thy worke,

¹⁰But the seuenth day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any worke, thou, nor thy sonne, nor thy daughter, thy man seruant, nor thy mayde, nor thy beast, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates.

¹¹For in sixe dayes the Lord made the heauen and the earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seuenth day: therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.

¹²Honour thy father and thy mother, that thy dayes may be prolonged vpon the land, which the Lord thy God giueth thee.
