## Exodus 20:1-14 in Context (Verses 1–17 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/exodus/20/1) And God spake all these words, saying,
 
 [2 ](/kjv/exodus/20/2) I *am* the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.*
 
 [3 ](/kjv/exodus/20/3) Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/exodus/20/4) Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness *of any thing* that *is* in heaven above, or that *is* in the earth beneath, or that *is* in the water under the earth:
 
 [5 ](/kjv/exodus/20/5) Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God *am* a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth *generation* of them that hate me;
 
 [6 ](/kjv/exodus/20/6) And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/exodus/20/7) Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/exodus/20/8) Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/exodus/20/9) Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
 
 [10 ](/kjv/exodus/20/10) But the seventh day *is* the sabbath of the LORD thy God: *in it* thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that *is* within thy gates:
 
 [11 ](/kjv/exodus/20/11) For *in* six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them *is*, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/exodus/20/12) ¶ Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/exodus/20/13) Thou shalt not kill.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/exodus/20/14) Thou shalt not commit adultery.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/exodus/20/15) Thou shalt not steal.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/exodus/20/16) Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/exodus/20/17) Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that *is* thy neighbour’s.
