Old Testament

New Testament

Deuter­­onomy 5:20-25 Modern English Version (MEV)

20. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

21. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor shall you covet your neighbor’s house, his field, his male servant, his female servant, his ox, his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.

22. These are the words the Lord spoke to all your assembly at the mountain out from the midst of the fire, the cloud, and the thick darkness with a great voice, and He added no more. He wrote them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me.

23. When you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain did burn with fire, you came near to me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders.

24. You said, “See, the Lord our God has shown us His glory and His greatness, and we have heard His voice from the midst of the fire. We have seen this day that God speaks with man, yet 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 will die.
