Deuteronomy 5:1-7

The Ten Commandments 1Moses summoned all Israel and said: Hear, Israel, the decrees and laws I declare in your hearing today. Learn them and be sure to follow them. 2The LORD our God made a covenant with us at Horeb. 3It was not with our ancestors Or not only with our parents that the LORD made this covenant, but with us, with all of us who are alive here today. 4The LORD spoke to you face to face out of the fire on the mountain.

5(At that time I stood between the LORD and you to declare to you the word of the LORD, because you were afraid of the fire and did not go up the mountain.) And he said:

6“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.

7“You shall have no other gods before Or besides me.
