Deuteronomy 5 (WEBP)

[1] Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, “Hear, Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears today, that you may learn them, and observe to do them.”
[2] Yahweh our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
[3] Yahweh didn’t make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive today.
[4] Yahweh spoke with you face to face on the mountain out of the middle of the fire,
[5] (I stood between Yahweh and you at that time, to show you Yahweh’s word; for you were afraid because of the fire, and didn’t go up onto the mountain) saying,
[6] “I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
[7] “You shall have no other gods before me.
[8] “You shall not make a carved image for yourself—any likeness of what is in heaven above, or what is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
[9] You shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me
[10] and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
[11] “You shall not misuse the name of Yahweh your God;§ for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.
[12] “Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as Yahweh your God commanded you.
[13] You shall labor six days, and do all your work;
[14] but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your God, in which you shall not do any work— neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you.
[15] You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and Yahweh your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore Yahweh your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
[16] “Honor your father and your mother, as Yahweh your God commanded you, that your days may be long and that it may go well with you in the land which Yahweh your God gives you.
[17] “You shall not murder.
[18] “You shall not commit adultery.
[19] “You shall not steal.
[20] “You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
[21] “You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife. Neither shall you desire your neighbor’s house, his field, or his male servant, or his female servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s.”
[22] Yahweh spoke these words to all your assembly on the mountain out of the middle of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice. He added no more. He wrote them on two stone tablets, and gave them to me.
[23] When you heard the voice out of the middle of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
[24] and you said, “Behold, Yahweh our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the middle of the fire. We have seen today that God does speak with man, and he lives.
[25] Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear Yahweh our God’s voice any more, then we shall die.
[26] For who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and lived?
[27] Go near, and hear all that Yahweh our God shall say, and tell us all that Yahweh our God tells you; and we will hear it, and do it.”
[28] Yahweh heard the voice of your words when you spoke to me; and Yahweh said to me, “I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. They have well said all that they have spoken.
[29] Oh that there were such a heart in them that they would fear me and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them and with their children forever!
[30] “Go tell them, ‘Return to your tents.’
[31] But as for you, stand here by me, and I will tell you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess.”
[32] You shall observe to do therefore as Yahweh your God has commanded you. You shall not turn away to the right hand or to the left.
[33] You shall walk in all the way which Yahweh your God has commanded you, that you may live and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.

Deuteronomy 5:11 or, You shall not take the name of Yahweh your God in vain;

Deuteronomy 5 (KJVS)

[1] And Moses H4872 called H7121 (8799) all Israel H3478, and said H559 (8799) unto them, Hear H8085 (8798), O Israel H3478, the statutes H2706 and judgments H4941 which I speak H1696 (8802) in your ears H241 this day H3117, that ye may learn H3925 (8804) them, and keep H8104 (8804), and do H6213 (8800) them.
[2] The LORD H3068 our God H430 made H3772 (8804) a covenant H1285 with us in Horeb H2722.
[3] The LORD H3068 made H3772 (8804) not this covenant H1285 with our fathers H1, but with us H587, [even] us, who [are] all of us H428 here alive H2416 this day H3117.
[4] The LORD H3068 talked H1696 (8765) with you face H6440 to face H6440 in the mount H2022 out of the midst H8432 of the fire H784,
[5] (I stood H5975 (8802) between the LORD H3068 and you at that time H6256, to shew H5046 (8687) you the word H1697 of the LORD H3068: for ye were afraid H3372 (8804) by reason H6440 of the fire H784, and went not up H5927 (8804) into the mount H2022;) saying H559 (8800),
[6] I [am] the LORD H3068 thy God H430, which brought thee out H3318 (8689) of the land H776 of Egypt H4714, from the house H1004 of bondage H5650.
[7] Thou shalt have none other H312 gods H430 before H6440 me.
[8] Thou shalt not make H6213 (8799) thee [any] graven image H6459, [or] any likeness H8544 [of any thing] that [is] in heaven H8064 above H4605, or that [is] in the earth H776 beneath, or that [is] in the waters H4325 beneath the earth H776:
[9] Thou shalt not bow down H7812 (8691) thyself unto them, nor serve H5647 (8714) them: for I the LORD H3068 thy God H430 [am] a jealous H7067 God H410, visiting H6485 (8802) the iniquity H5771 of the fathers H1 upon the children H1121 unto the third H8029 and fourth H7256 [generation] of them that hate H8130 (8802) me,
[10] And shewing H6213 (8802) mercy H2617 unto thousands H505 of them that love H157 (8802) me and keep H8104 (8802) my commandments H4687.
[11] Thou shalt not take H5375 (8799) the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430 in vain H7723: for the LORD H3068 will not hold [him] guiltless H5352 (8762) that taketh H5375 (8799) his name H8034 in vain H7723.
[12] Keep H8104 (8800) the sabbath H7676 day H3117 to sanctify H6942 (8763) it, as the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath commanded H6680 (8765) thee.
[13] Six H8337 days H3117 thou shalt labour H5647 (8799), and do H6213 (8804) all thy work H4399:
[14] But the seventh H7637 day H3117 [is] the sabbath H7676 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430: [in it] thou shalt not do H6213 (8799) any work H4399, thou, nor thy son H1121, nor thy daughter H1323, nor thy manservant H5650, nor thy maidservant H519, nor thine ox H7794, nor thine ass H2543, nor any of thy cattle H929, nor thy stranger H1616 that [is] within thy gates H8179; that thy manservant H5650 and thy maidservant H519 may rest H5117 (8799) as well as thou.
[15] And remember H2142 (8804) that thou wast a servant H5650 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714, and [that] the LORD H3068 thy God H430 brought H3318 (8686) thee out thence through a mighty H2389 hand H3027 and by a stretched out H5186 (8803) arm H2220: therefore the LORD H3068 thy God H430 commanded H6680 (8765) thee to keep H6213 (8800) the sabbath H7676 day H3117.
[16] Honour H3513 (8761) thy father H1 and thy mother H517, as the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath commanded H6680 (8765) thee; that thy days H3117 may be prolonged H748 (8686), and that it may go well H3190 (8799) with thee, in the land H127 which the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 (8802) thee.
[17] Thou shalt not kill H7523 (8799).
[18] Neither shalt thou commit adultery H5003 (8799).
[19] Neither shalt thou steal H1589 (8799).
[20] Neither shalt thou bear H6030 (8799) false H7723 witness H5707 against thy neighbour H7453.
[21] Neither shalt thou desire H2530 (8799) thy neighbour’s H7453 wife H802, neither shalt thou covet H183 (8691) thy neighbour’s H7453 house H1004, his field H7704, or his manservant H5650, or his maidservant H519, his ox H7794, or his ass H2543, or any [thing] that [is] thy neighbour’s H7453.
[22] These words H1697 the LORD H3068 spake H1696 (8765) unto all your assembly H6951 in the mount H2022 out of the midst H8432 of the fire H784, of the cloud H6051, and of the thick darkness H6205, with a great H1419 voice H6963: and he added no more H3254 (8804). And he wrote H3789 (8799) them in two H8147 tables H3871 of stone H68, and delivered H5414 (8799) them unto me.
[23] And it came to pass, when ye heard H8085 (8800) the voice H6963 out of the midst H8432 of the darkness H2822, (for the mountain H2022 did burn H1197 (8802) with fire H784,) that ye came near H7126 (8799) unto me, [even] all the heads H7218 of your tribes H7626, and your elders H2205;
[24] And ye said H559 (8799), Behold, the LORD H3068 our God H430 hath shewed H7200 (8689) us his glory H3519 and his greatness H1433, and we have heard H8085 (8804) his voice H6963 out of the midst H8432 of the fire H784: we have seen H7200 (8804) this day H3117 that God H430 doth talk H1696 (8762) with man H120, and he liveth H2425 (8804).
[25] Now therefore why should we die H4191 (8799)? for this great H1419 fire H784 will consume H398 (8799) us: if we hear H8085 (8800) the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 our God H430 any more H3254 (8802), then we shall die H4191 (8804).
[26] For who [is there of] all flesh H1320, that hath heard H8085 (8804) the voice H6963 of the living H2416 God H430 speaking H1696 (8764) out of the midst H8432 of the fire H784, as we [have], and lived H2421 (8799)?
[27] Go thou near H7126 (8798), and hear H8085 (8798) all that the LORD H3068 our God H430 shall say H559 (8799): and speak H1696 (8762) thou unto us all that the LORD H3068 our God H430 shall speak H1696 (8762) unto thee; and we will hear H8085 (8804) [it], and do H6213 (8804) [it].
[28] And the LORD H3068 heard H8085 (8799) the voice H6963 of your words H1697, when ye spake H1696 (8763) unto me; and the LORD H3068 said H559 (8799) unto me, I have heard H8085 (8804) the voice H6963 of the words H1697 of this people H5971, which they have spoken H1696 (8765) unto thee: they have well H3190 (8689) said all that they have spoken H1696 (8765).
[29] O that there were such H2088 an H4310 heart H3824 in them H5414 (8799), that they would fear H3372 (8800) me, and keep H8104 (8800) all my commandments H4687 always H3117, that it might be well H3190 (8799) with them, and with their children H1121 for ever H5769!
[30] Go H3212 (8798) say H559 (8798) to them, Get H7725 you into your tents H168 again H7725 (8798).
[31] But as for thee, stand H5975 (8798) thou here by me H5978, and I will speak H1696 (8762) unto thee all the commandments H4687, and the statutes H2706, and the judgments H4941, which thou shalt teach H3925 (8762) them, that they may do H6213 (8804) [them] in the land H776 which I give H5414 (8802) them to possess H3423 (8800) it.
[32] Ye shall observe H8104 (8804) to do H6213 (8800) therefore as the LORD H3068 your God H430 hath commanded H6680 (8765) you: ye shall not turn aside H5493 (8799) to the right hand H3225 or to the left H8040.
[33] Ye shall walk H3212 (8799) in all the ways H1870 which the LORD H3068 your God H430 hath commanded H6680 (8765) you, that ye may live H2421 (8799), and [that it may be] well H2895 (8804) with you, and [that] ye may prolong H748 (8689) [your] days H3117 in the land H776 which ye shall possess H3423 (8799).

Young’s Literal Translation

Deuteronomy 5 (YLT)

[1] And Moses calleth unto all Israel, and saith unto them, ‘Hear, Israel, the statutes and the judgments which I am speaking in your ears to-day, and ye have learned them, and have observed to do them.
[2] Jehovah our God made with us a covenant in Horeb;
[3] not with our fathers hath Jehovah made this covenant, but with us; we-these-here to-day-all of us alive.
[4] Face to face hath Jehovah spoken with you, in the mount, out of the midst of the fire;
[5] I am standing between Jehovah and you, at that time, to declare to you the word of Jehovah, for ye have been afraid from the presence of the fire, and ye have not gone up into the mount; saying:
[6] ‘I Jehovah am thy God, who hath brought thee out from the land of Egypt, from a house of servants.
[7] ‘Thou hast no other gods in My presence.
[8] ‘Thou dost not make to thee a graven image, any similitude which is in the heavens above, and which is in the earth beneath, and which is in the waters under the earth;
[9] thou dost not bow thyself to them nor serve them, for I Jehovah thy God am a zealous God, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on a third generation, and on a fourth, to those hating Me;
[10] and doing kindness to thousands, to those loving Me, and to those keeping My commands.
[11] ‘Thou dost not take up the Name of Jehovah thy God for a vain thing, for Jehovah doth not acquit him who taketh up His Name for a vain thing.
[12] ‘Observe the day of the sabbath-to sanctify it, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee;
[13] six days thou dost labour, and hast done all thy work,
[14] and the seventh day is a sabbath to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not do any work, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and thine ox, and thine ass, and all thy cattle, and thy sojourner who is within thy gates; so that thy man-servant, and thy handmaid doth rest like thyself;
[15] and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God is bringing thee out thence by a strong hand, and by a stretched-out arm; therefore hath Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the day of the sabbath.
[16] ‘Honour thy father and thy mother, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee, so that thy days are prolonged, and so that it is well with thee, on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee.
[17] ‘Thou dost not murder.
[18] ‘Thou dost not commit adultery.
[19] ‘Thou dost not steal.
[20] ‘Thou dost not answer against thy neighbour-a false testimony.
[21] ‘Thou dost not desire thy neighbour’s wife; nor dost thou covet thy neighbour’s house, his field, and his man-servant, and his handmaid, his ox, and his ass, and anything which is thy neighbour’s.
[22] ‘These words hath Jehovah spoken unto all your assembly, in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness-a great voice; and He hath not added, and He writeth them on two tables of stone, and giveth them unto me.
[23] ‘And it cometh to pass as ye hear the voice out of the midst of the darkness, and of the mountain burning with fire, that ye come near unto me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders,
[24] and say, Lo, Jehovah our God hath shewed us His honour, and His greatness; and His voice we have heard out of the midst of the fire; this day we have seen that God doth speak with man-and he hath lived.
[25] ‘And, now, why do we die? for consume us doth this great fire-if we add to hear the voice of Jehovah our God any more-then we have died.
[26] For who of all flesh is he who hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire like us-and doth live?
[27] Draw near thou, and hear all that which Jehovah our God saith, and thou, thou dost speak unto us all that which Jehovah our God speaketh unto thee, and we have hearkened, and done it.
[28] ‘And Jehovah heareth the voice of your words, in your speaking unto me, and Jehovah saith unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken unto thee; they have done well in all that they have spoken.
[29] O that their heart had been thus to them, to fear Me, and to keep My commands all the days, that it may be well with them, and with their sons-to the age!
[30] ‘Go, say to them, Turn back for yourselves, to your tents;
[31] and thou here stand thou with Me, and let Me speak unto thee all the command, and the statutes, and the judgments which thou dost teach them, and they have done in the land which I am giving to them to possess it.
[32] ‘And ye have observed to do as Jehovah your God hath commanded you, ye turn not aside-right or left;
[33] in all the way which Jehovah your God hath commanded you ye walk, so that ye live, and it is well with you, and ye have prolonged days in the land which ye possess.
