Deuteronomy 5:4-12 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

4. He spoke to us face to face in the mount out of the midst of fire.

5. I was the mediator and stood between the Lord and you at that time, to shew you his words, for you feared the fire, and went not up into the mountain, and he said:

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

7. Thou shalt not have strange gods in my sight.

8. Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any things, that are in heaven above, or that are in the earth beneath, or that abide in the waters under the earth.

9. Thou shalt not adore them, and thou shalt not serve them. For I am the Lord thy God, a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon their children unto the third and fourth generation, to them that hate me,

10. And shewing mercy unto many thousands, to them that love me, and keep my commandments.

11. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for he shall not be unpunished that taketh his name upon a vain thing.

12. Observe the day of the sabbath, to sanctify it, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee.
