Deuteronomy 5:3-12 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

3. The Lord made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.

4. The Lord spake with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,

5. (I stood between the Lord and you at that time, to shew you the word of the Lord: for ye were afraid because of the fire, and went not up into the mount;) saying,

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

7. Thou shalt have none other gods before me.

8. Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, the likeness of any form that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:

9. thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me;

10. and shewing mercy unto thousands, of them that love me and keep my commandments.

11. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

12. Observe the sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the Lord thy God commanded thee.
