Exodus 20
20:1 And
God
a spake all these words, saying,
(
a) When Moses and Aaron were gone up, or had
passed the bounds of the people, God spoke thus out of the mount Horeb, that
all the people heard.
20:3 Thou shalt have no other
gods
b before me.
(
b) To whose eyes all things are open.
20:5 Thou shalt not
c
bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God [am] a
d
jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the
third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me;
(
c) By this outward gesture, all forms of service
and worship to idols is forbidden.
(
d) And will have revenge on those who condemn my
honour.
20:6 And shewing mercy unto
e
thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
(
e) So ready is he rather to show mercy than to
punish.
20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy
God in
f vain; for the LORD will not
hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
(
f) Either by swearing falsely or rashly by his
Name, or by condemning it.
20:8 Remember the sabbath day,
g
to keep it holy.
(
g) Which is by meditating the spiritual rest, by
hearing God's word, and resting from worldly labours.
20:12
Honour thy
h father and thy mother: that
thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
(
h) By parents it is also meant all that have
authority over us.
20:13 Thou shalt not
i
kill.
(
i) But love and preserve your brother's life.
20:14 Thou shalt not
k
commit adultery.
(
k) But be pure in heart, word and deed.
20:15 Thou shalt not
l
steal.
(
l) But study to save his goods.
20:16 Thou shalt not bear false
m
witness against thy neighbour.
(
m) But further his good name, and speak truth.
20:17 Thou shalt not
n
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.
(
n) You may not so much as wish his hinderance in
anything.
20:20
And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to
o
prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
(
o) Whether you will obey his precepts as you
promised in (
Exodus
19:8).
20:26
Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy
p
nakedness be not discovered thereon.
(
p) Which might be by his stooping or flying up
of his clothes.
