Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy:

Then God spoke all these words:

Do not have other gods besides Me.

Honor your father and your mother so that you may have a long life in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.

Do not murder.

Do not make an idol for yourself, whether in the shape of anything in the heavens above or on the earth below or in the waters under the earth.

If you make a stone altar for Me, you must not build it out of cut stones. If you use your chisel on it, you will defile it.

You must not go up to My altar on steps, so that your nakedness is not exposed on it.
