《十诫》选自《旧约》的申命记（Deuteronomy）

"The Lord said, 'I'm the Lord your God, who rescued you from Egypt, where you were slaves.

"'Worship no god but me."

"'Do not make for yourselves images of anything in heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth. Do not bow down to any idol or worship it, for I am the Lord your God and I tolerate no rivals. I bring punishment on those who hate me and on their descendants down to the third and fourth generation. But I show my love to thousands of generations of those who love me and obey my laws."

"'Do not use my name for evil purposes, for I, the Lord your God, will punish anyone who misuses my name."

"'Observe the Sabbath and keep it holy, as I, the Lord your God, have commanded you. You have six days in which to do your work, but the seventh day is a day of rest dedicated to me. On that day no one is to work—neither you, your children, your slaves, your animals, nor the foreigners who live in your country. Your slaves must rest just as you do. Remember that you were slaves in Egypt, and that I, the Lord your God, rescued you by my great power and strength. That is why I command you to observe the Sabbath."

"'Respect your father and your mother, as I, the Lord your God, command you, so that all may go well with you and so that you may live a long time in the land that I am giving you."

"'Do not commit murder."

"'Do not commit adultery."

"'Do not steal."

"'Do not accuse anyone falsely."

"'Do not desire another man's wife; do not desire his house, his land, his slaves, his cattle, his donkeys, or anything else that he owns.'
