Exodus 20
King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1And God spake all these words, saying,
1Locutusque est Dominus cunctos sermones hos:
2I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
2Ego sum Dominus Deus tuus, qui eduxi te de terra Ægypti, de domo servitutis.
3Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
3Non habebis deos alienos coram me.
4Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
4Non facies tibi sculptile, neque omnem similitudinem quæ est in cælo desuper, et quæ in terra deorsum, nec eorum quæ sunt in aquis sub terra.
5Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
5Non adorabis ea, neque coles: ego sum Dominus Deus tuus fortis, zelotes, visitans iniquitatem patrum in filios, in tertiam et quartam generationem eorum qui oderunt me:
6And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
6et faciens misericordiam in millia his qui diligunt me, et custodiunt præcepta mea.
7Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
7Non assumes nomen Domini Dei tui in vanum: nec enim habebit insontem Dominus eum qui assumpserit nomen Domini Dei sui frustra.
8Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
8Memento ut diem sabbati sanctifices.
9Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
9Sex diebus operaberis, et facies omnia opera tua.
10But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
10Septimo autem die sabbatum Domini Dei tui est: non facies omne opus in eo, tu, et filius tuus et filia tua, servus tuus et ancilla tua, jumentum tuum, et advena qui est intra portas tuas.
11For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is , and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
11Sex enim diebus fecit Dominus cælum et terram, et mare, et omnia quæ in eis sunt, et requievit in die septimo: idcirco benedixit Dominus diei sabbati, et sanctificavit eum.
12¶ Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
12Honora patrem tuum et matrem tuam, ut sis longævus super terram, quam Dominus Deus tuus dabit tibi.
13Thou shalt not kill.
13Non occides.
14Thou shalt not commit adultery.
14Non mœchaberis.
15Thou shalt not steal.
15Non furtum facies.
16Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
16Non loqueris contra proximum tuum falsum testimonium.
17Thou shalt not 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.
17Non concupisces domum proximi tui, nec desiderabis uxorem ejus, non servum, non ancillam, non bovem, non asinum, nec omnia quæ illius sunt.
18¶ And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it , they removed, and stood afar off.
18Cunctus autem populus videbat voces et lampades, et sonitum buccinæ, montemque fumantem: et perterriti ac pavore concussi, steterunt procul,
19And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
19dicentes Moysi: Loquere tu nobis, et audiemus: non loquatur nobis Dominus, ne forte moriamur.
20And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
20Et ait Moyses ad populum: Nolite timere: ut enim probaret vos venit Deus, et ut terror illius esset in vobis, et non peccaretis.
21And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was .
21Stetitque populus de longe. Moyses autem accessit ad caliginem in qua erat Deus.
22¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
22Dixit præterea Dominus ad Moysen: Hæc dices filiis Israël: Vos vidistis quod de cælo locutus sim vobis.
23Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold.
23Non facietis deos argenteos, nec deos aureos facietis vobis.
24¶ An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places where I record my name I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee.
24Altare de terra facietis mihi, et offeretis super eo holocausta et pacifica vestra, oves vestras et boves in omni loco in quo memoria fuerit nominis mei: veniam ad te, et benedicam tibi.
25And if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stone: for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it.
25Quod si altare lapideum feceris mihi, non ædificabis illud de sectis lapidibus: si enim levaveris cultrum super eo, polluetur.
26Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not discovered thereon.
26Non ascendes per gradus ad altare meum, ne reveletur turpitudo tua.
