Exodus 20
Ang Pulong Sa Dios
Ang Napulo ka Sugo
(Deu. 5:1-21)
20 Unya miingon ang Dios:
2 “Ako ang Ginoo nga inyong Dios nga nagpagawas kaninyo gikan sa Ehipto diin kamo giulipon.
3 “Ayaw kamo pagsimba ug laing dios gawas kanako.
4 “Ayaw kamo paghimo ug mga dios-dios sa dagway sa bisan unsa nga anaa sa langit, o sa yuta, o sa tubig. 5 Ayaw gayod ninyo kini alagari o simbaha, kay ako, ang Ginoo nga inyong Dios, abughoan. Dili ako gusto nga may lain kamong simbahon. Silotan ko ang mga nakasala kanako apil ang ilang mga kaliwat hangtod sa ikatulo ug ikaupat nga henerasyon nga nagasalikway kanako. 6 Apan ginapakita ko ang akong paghigugma ngadto sa daghan kaayong henerasyon nga nagahigugma kanako ug nagatuman sa akong mga sugo.
7 “Ayaw ninyo gamita ang akong ngalan sa walay kapuslanan kay ako, ang Ginoo nga inyong Dios, magasilot kang bisan kinsa nga mogamit sa akong ngalan sa walay kapuslanan.
8 “Hinumdomi ninyo ang Adlaw nga Igpapahulay, ug himoa ninyo kini nga pinasahi nga adlaw alang kanako. 9 Magtrabaho kamo sulod sa unom ka adlaw, 10 apan ang ikapito nga adlaw, ang Adlaw nga Igpapahulay, inyong igahin alang kanako, ang Ginoo nga inyong Dios. Ayaw kamo pagtrabaho niining adlawa apil ang inyong mga anak, mga ulipon, kahayopan, o ang mga langyaw nga nagapuyo sa inyong mga lungsod. 11 Kay sulod sa unom ka adlaw gimugna ko ang langit, ang yuta, ang dagat, ug ang tanang anaa niini, apan mipahulay ako sa ikapitong adlaw. Busa gipanalanginan ko ang Adlaw nga Igpapahulay ug gihimo ko kini nga pinasahi nga adlaw alang kanako.
12 “Tahora ninyo ang inyong amahan ug inahan aron magkinabuhi kamo ug dugay diha sa yuta nga gihatag ko kaninyo.
13 “Ayaw kamo pagpatay.
14 “Ayaw kamo panapaw.
15 “Ayaw kamo pangawat.
16 “Ayaw kamo pagsaksi ug bakak batok sa inyong isigka-tawo.
17 “Ayaw kamo kaibog sa balay sa inyong isigka-tawo, o sa iyang asawa, mga ulipon, mga baka o asno, o sa bisan unsa nga anaa kaniya.”
18 Sa dihang nadungog sa mga tawo ang dalogdog ug ang tingog sa budyong, ug sa dihang nakita nila ang kilat ug ang bukid nga nagaaso, nangurog sila sa kahadlok. Mitindog sila sa layo-layo 19 ug miingon kang Moises, “Ikaw na lay makigsulti kanamo kay maminaw kami, dili lang ang Dios kay basin mamatay kami.” 20 Busa miingon si Moises sa mga tawo, “Ayaw kamo kahadlok, kay mianhi dinhi ang Dios sa pagpakita sa iyang gahom kaninyo aron magbaton kamo ug kahadlok kaniya ug dili magpakasala.” 21 Sa gihapon nagpabilin ang mga tawo sa pagtindog sa layo-layo samtang si Moises miduol sa bagang panganod diin atua ang Dios.
22 Unya miingon ang Ginoo kang Moises, “Isulti kini sa mga Israelinhon: Nakita ninyo nga nakigsulti ako kaninyo gikan sa langit. 23 Busa ayaw kamo paghimog mga dios nga plata o bulawan aron simbahon uban kanako.
24 “Paghimo kamog halaran nga yuta alang kanako ug diha ninyo ihalad ang inyong mga karnero, mga kanding, ug mga baka ingon nga halad nga sinunog ug halad alang sa maayong relasyon.[a] Himoa ninyo kini sa dapit nga akong pilion diin ako pagasimbahon, ug didto adtoan ko kamo ug panalanginan. 25 Kon maghimo kamog halaran nga bato alang kanako ayaw ninyo kinig sapsapi, kay kon gamitan ninyo kinig gamit nga pangsapsap, dili na kini takos nga gamiton sa paghalad kanako. 26 Ug ayaw usab kamo paghimog halaran nga may hagdanan kay basin malili-an kamo inigsaka ninyo niini.”

Exodus 20
English Standard Version
The Ten Commandments
20 (A)And (B)God spoke all these words, saying,
2 (C)“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
3 (D)“You shall have no other gods before[a] me.
4 (E)“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5 (F)You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am (G)a jealous God, (H)visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing steadfast love to thousands[b] of those who love me and keep my commandments.
7 (I)“You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
8 (J)“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 (K)Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, 10 but the (L)seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the (M)sojourner who is within your gates. 11 For (N)in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
12 (O)“Honor your father and your mother, (P)that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
13 (Q)“You shall not murder.[c]
14 (R)“You shall not commit adultery.
15 (S)“You shall not steal.
16 (T)“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
17 (U)“You shall not covet (V)your neighbor's house; (W)you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male servant, or his female servant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's.”
18 Now when all the people saw (X)the thunder and the flashes of lightning and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking, the people were afraid[d] and trembled, and they stood far off 19 and said to Moses, (Y)“You speak to us, and we will listen; but do not let God speak to us, lest we die.” 20 (Z)Moses said to the people, “Do not fear, for God has come to (AA)test you, that the fear of him may be before you, that you may not sin.” 21 The people stood far off, while Moses drew near to the (AB)thick darkness where God was.
Laws About Altars
22 And the Lord said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the people of Israel: ‘You have seen for yourselves that I have (AC)talked with you from heaven. 23 (AD)You shall not make gods of silver to be with me, nor shall you make for yourselves gods of gold. 24 An altar of earth you shall make for me and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen. (AE)In every place where I cause my name to be remembered I will come to you and (AF)bless you. 25 (AG)If you make me an altar of stone, (AH)you shall not build it of hewn stones, for if you wield your tool on it you profane it. 26 And you shall not go up by steps to my altar, that your nakedness be not exposed on it.’

Exodus 20
New King James Version
The Ten Commandments(A)
20 And God spoke (B)all these words, saying:
2 (C)“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, (D)out of the house of [a]bondage.
3 (E)“You shall have no other gods before Me.
4 (F)“You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 5 (G)you shall not bow down to them nor [b]serve them. (H)For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, (I)visiting[c] the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but (J)showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
7 (K)“You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord (L)will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
8 (M)“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 (N)Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the (O)seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, (P)nor your stranger who is within your gates. 11 For (Q)in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
12 (R)“Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be (S)long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
13 (T)“You shall not murder.
14 (U)“You shall not commit (V)adultery.
15 (W)“You shall not steal.
16 (X)“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
17 (Y)“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; (Z)you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
The People Afraid of God’s Presence
18 Now (AA)all the people (AB)witnessed the thunderings, the lightning flashes, the sound of the trumpet, and the mountain (AC)smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood afar off. 19 Then they said to Moses, (AD)“You speak with us, and we will hear; but (AE)let not God speak with us, lest we die.”
20 And Moses said to the people, (AF)“Do not fear; (AG)for God has come to test you, and (AH)that His fear may be before you, so that you may not sin.” 21 So the people stood afar off, but Moses drew near (AI)the thick darkness where God was.
The Law of the Altar
22 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: ‘You have seen that I have talked with you (AJ)from heaven. 23 You shall not make anything to be (AK)with Me—gods of silver or gods of gold you shall not make for yourselves. 24 An altar of (AL)earth you shall make for Me, and you shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, (AM)your sheep and your oxen. In every (AN)place where I [d]record My name I will come to you, and I will (AO)bless you. 25 And (AP)if you make Me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stone; for if you (AQ)use your tool on it, you have profaned it. 26 Nor shall you go up by steps to My altar, that your (AR)nakedness may not be exposed on it.’
