Deuteronomy 5:1-8, 21-22

Deuteronomy 5:1-8 NCV

Moses called all the people of Israel together and said: Listen, Israel, to the commands and laws I am giving you today. Learn them and obey them carefully. The LORD our God made an Agreement with us at Mount Sinai. He did not make this Agreement with our ancestors, but he made it with us, with all of us who are alive here today. The LORD spoke to you face to face from the fire on the mountain. (At that time I stood between you and the LORD in order to tell you what the LORD said; you were afraid of the fire, so you would not go up on the mountain.) The LORD said: “I am the LORD your God; I brought you out of the land of Egypt where you were slaves. “You must not have any other gods except me. “You must not make for yourselves any idols or anything to worship that looks like something in the sky above or on the earth below or in the water below the land.

Deuteronomy 5:21-22 NCV

“You must not want to take your neighbor’s wife. You must not want to take your neighbor’s house or land, his male or female slaves, his ox or his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.” The LORD spoke these commands to all of you on the mountain in a loud voice out of the fire, the cloud, and the deep darkness; he did not say anything else. Then he wrote them on two stone tablets, and he gave them to me.
