THE TEN WORDS OF ELOHIM
And Elohim words all these words, saying, 2 I - Yah Veh your Elohim, who brought you from the land of Misrayim, from the house of servants. 3 Have no other elohim above my face. 4 Work not to yourself any sculptile or any similitude of that in the heavens above or that in the earth beneath or that in the water under the earth: 5 neither prostrate yourself to them, nor serve them: for I Yah Veh your Elohim am a jealous El, visiting the perversity of the fathers on the sons to the third and fourth of them who hate me; 6 and working mercy to the thousands who love me and guard my misvoth. 7 Bear not the name of Yah Veh your Elohim in defamation; for Yah Veh exonerates him not who bears his name in defamation. 8 Remember the shabbath day, to hallow it: 9 six days you serve and work all your work: 10 but the seventh day is the shabbath of Yah Veh your Elohim: work no work therein; neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your servant, nor your maid, nor your animals, nor your sojourner within your portals: 11 for in six days Yah Veh worked the heavens and earth, the sea and all therein; and rested the seventh day: so Yah Veh blessed the shabbath day and hallowed it. 12 Honor your father and your mother: that your days be prolonged on the soil which Yah Veh your Elohim gives you. 13 Murder not. 14 Adulterize not. 15 Steal not. 16 Answer not a false witness against your friend. 17 Desire not the house of your friend; desire not the woman of your friend; neither his servant, nor his maid, nor his ox, nor his he burro, nor aught that is of your friend. 18 And all the people see voices and the flambeaus and the voice of the shophar and the mountain smoking: and when the people see, they shake and stand afar. 19 And they say to Mosheh, Word with us and we hear: but have not Elohim word with us, lest we die. 20 And Mosheh says to the people, Awe not: for Elohim comes so as to test you and that his awe be in front of your faces so that you sin not. 21 And the people stand afar off and Mosheh draws near to the dripping darkness where Elohim is: 22 and Yah Veh says to Mosheh, Say thus to the sons of Yisra El, You see that I word with you from the heavens. 23 Neither work me elohim of silver nor work yourselves elohim of gold: 24 but work to me a sacrifice altar of soil and sacrifice thereon your holocausts and your shelamim - your flocks and your oxen in all places wherever I memorialize my name I come to you and I bless you: 25 and if you work me a sacrifice altar of stone, build it not of hewn stone: for if you shake your sword on it, you profane it: 26 and ascend not to my sacrifice altar by degrees, so that your nakedness be not exposed thereon.
