  • 4. `Thou dost not make to thyself a graven image, or any likeness which `is' in the heavens above, or which `is' in the earth beneath, or which `is' in the waters under the earth.
  • 5. Thou dost not bow thyself to them, nor serve them: for I, Jehovah thy God, `am' a zealous God, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, on the third `generation', and on the fourth, of those hating Me,
  • 6. and doing kindness to thousands, of those loving Me and keeping My commands.
  • 7. `Thou dost not take up the name of Jehovah thy God for a vain thing, for Jehovah acquitteth not him who taketh up His name for a vain thing.
  • 8. `Remember the Sabbath-day to sanctify it;
  • 9. six days thou dost labour, and hast done all thy work,
  • 10. and the seventh day `is' a Sabbath to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not do any work, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and thy cattle, and thy sojourner who is within thy gates, --
  • 11. for six days hath Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that `is' in them, and resteth in the seventh day; therefore hath Jehovah blessed the Sabbath-day, and doth sanctify it.

  • 18. And all the people are seeing the voices, and the flames, and the sound of the trumpet, and the mount smoking; and the people see, and move, and stand afar off,
  • 19. and say unto Moses, `Speak thou with us, and we hear, and let not God speak with us, lest we die.'
  • 20. And Moses saith unto the people, `Fear not, for to try you hath God come, and in order that His fear may be before your faces -- that ye sin not.'
  • 21. And the people stand afar off, and Moses hath drawn nigh unto the thick darkness where God `is'.
  • 22. And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Thus dost thou say unto the sons of Israel: Ye -- ye have seen that from the heavens I have spoken with you;
  • 23. ye do not make with Me gods of silver, even gods of gold ye do not make to yourselves.
  • 24. `An altar of earth thou dost make for Me, and thou hast sacrificed on it thy burnt-offerings and thy peace-offerings, thy flock and thy herd; in every place where I cause My name to be remembered I come in unto thee, and have blessed thee.
  • 25. `And if an altar of stones thou dost make to Me, thou dost not build them of hewn work; when thy tool thou hast waved over it, then thou dost pollute it;
  • 26. neither dost thou go up by steps on Mine altar, that thy nakedness be not revealed upon it.
