15. And remember that thou wast a slave in the land of Egypt and that the Lord thy God brought thee out of there with a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore, the Lord thy God has commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
16. Honour thy father and thy mother, as the Lord thy God has commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the Lord thy God gives thee.
17. Thou shalt not murder.
18. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
19. Thou shalt not steal.
20. Thou shalt not give false testimony against thy neighbour.
21. Thou shalt not desire thy neighbour’s wife, neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour’s house, his field or his manslave or his maidslave, his ox or his ass or any thing that is thy neighbour’s.
22. These words the Lord spoke unto all your congregation in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice, and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone and delivered them unto me.
23. And it came to pass when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness and saw the mountain that burned with fire that ye came near unto me, even all the princes of your tribes and your elders;
24. and ye said, Behold, the Lord our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire; we have seen this day that God does talk with man, and he lives.
25. Now, therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us; if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any more, then we shall die.
26. For what is all flesh that it should hear the voice of the living God that speaks out of the midst of the fire, as we heard, and live?
27. Go thou near and hear all that the Lord our God shall say, and thou shalt tell us all that the Lord our God shall speak unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it.
28. And the Lord heard the voice of your words when ye spoke unto me, and the Lord said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee; they have well said all that they have spoken.
