The Ten Commandments
I
Thou shalt not have no other gods before me.
II
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image,
or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in
the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou
shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD
thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon
the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate
me. And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and
keep my commandments.
III
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain;
for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in
vain.
IV
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six
days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day
is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any
work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy
maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy
gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea,
and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the
LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
V
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days
may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
VI
Thou shalt not kill.
VII
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
VIII
Thou shalt not steal.
IX
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
X
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's
wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy
neighbour's.
The Greatest Commandment
Matthew 22:36-40
"Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said
unto him. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first
and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou
shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments
hang all the law and the prophets."
