2. The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3. The Lord did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, we who are living now and here today.
4. The Lord talked with you face to face on the mountain from the midst of the fire.
5. I stood between the Lord and you at that time to declare to you the word of the Lord; for you were afraid because of the fire and would not go up to the mountain. He said:
6. I am the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
7. You shall have no other gods before Me.
8. You shall not make yourself any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth;
9. you shall not bow down to them, nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,
10. but showing mercy to thousands of them that love Me and keep My commandments.
