And Mosescalled all Israel, and saiduntothem, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgmentswhich I speak in yourearsthis day, that ye may learnthem, and keep, and do them.
(I stoodbetween the LORD and you at thattime, to shew you the word of the LORD: for ye wereafraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the mount;) saying,
Thoushalt not makethee any gravenimage, or any likeness of any thingthat is in heavenabove, or that is in the earthbeneath, or that is in the watersbeneath the earth:
Thoushalt not bow downthyselfuntothem, nor servethem: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathersupon the childrenunto the third and fourthgeneration of themthathate me,
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thoushalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy strangerthat is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.
And rememberthatthouwast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God broughtthee out thencethrough a mightyhand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commandedthee to keep the sabbath day.
Honour thy father and thy mother, as the LORD thy God hathcommandedthee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go wellwiththee, in the landwhich the LORD thy God giveththee.
Neithershaltthoudesire thy neighbour’swife, neithershaltthoucovet thy neighbour’shouse, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thingthat is thy neighbour’s.
Thesewords the LORDspakeunto all yourassembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thickdarkness, with a greatvoice: and he added no more. And he wrotethem in two tables of stone, and deliveredthemunto me.
And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burnwithfire,) that ye camenearunto me, even all the heads of yourtribes, and yourelders;

Go thounear, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say: and speakthouunto us all that the LORD our God shallspeakuntothee; and we willhear it, and do it.
And the LORDheard the voice of yourwords, when ye spakeunto me; and the LORDsaidunto me, I haveheard the voice of the words of thispeople, whichtheyhavespokenuntothee: theyhavewellsaid all thattheyhavespoken.
O thatthereweresuch an heart in them, thattheywouldfear me, and keep all my commandmentsalways, that it might be wellwiththem, and withtheirchildren for ever!
But as for thee, standthouhere by me, and I willspeakuntothee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, whichthoushaltteachthem, thatthey may do them in the landwhich I givethem to possess it.
