Reference to the Ten Words by Yahowah


Exodus Chapter 20

1 And Elohim/The Mighty One spoke all these Words, saying, 2 �I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, out of the house of slavery. 3 �You have no other mighty ones against My face. 4 �You do not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of that which is in the heavens above, or which is in the earth beneath, or which is in the waters under the earth, 5 you do not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One am a jealous Ěl, visiting the crookedness of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but showing kindness to thousands, to those who love Me and guard My commands. 7 �You do not bring1 the Name of Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One to naught, for Yahowah/יהוה does not leave the one unpunished who brings His Name to naught. Footnote: 1Or lift up, or take. 8 �Remember the Sabbath day, to set it apart. 9 �Six days you labor, and shall do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath1 of Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. You do not do any work � you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. Footnote: 1There are other Sabbaths, but this is the weekly Sabbath. 11 �For in six days Yahowah/יהוה made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore Yahowah/יהוה blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart. 12 �Respect your father and your mother, so that your days are prolonged upon the soil which Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One is giving you. 13 �You do not murder. 14 �You do not commit adultery. 15 �You do not steal. 16 �You do not bear false witness against your neighbor. 17 �You do not covet your neighbor's house, you do not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, or whatever belongs to your neighbor.� 18 And all the people saw the thunders, the lightning flashes, the sound of the ram�s horn, and the mountain smoking. And the people saw it, and they trembled and stood at a distance, 19 and said to Mosheh, �You speak with us and we hear, but let not Elohim/The Mighty One speak with us, lest we die.� 20 And Mosheh said to the people, �Do not fear, for Elohim/The Mighty One has come to prove you, and in order that His fear be before you, so that you do not sin.� 21 So the people stood at a distance, but Mosheh drew near the thick darkness where Elohim/The Mighty One was. 22 And Yahowah/יהוה said to Mosheh, �Say this to the children of Yisra�ĕl: �You yourselves have seen that I have spoken to you from the heavens. 23 �You do not make besides Me mighty ones of silver, and you do not make mighty ones of gold for yourselves. 24 �Make an altar of earth for Me, and you shall slaughter on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your cattle. In every place where I cause My Name to be remembered I shall come to you and bless you. 25 �And if you make Me an altar of stone, do not build it of cut stone, for if you use your chisel on it, you have profaned it. 26 �Nor do you go up by steps to My altar, lest your nakedness be exposed on it.�

Exodus Chapter 34

1 And Yahowah/יהוה said to Mosheh, �Cut two tablets of stone like the first ones, and I shall write on these tablets the Words that were on the first tablets which you broke. 2 �And be ready in the morning. Then you shall come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and present yourself to Me there on the top of the mountain. 3 �And let no man come up with you, and let no man be seen in all the mountain, and let not even the flock or the herd feed in front of that mountain.� 4 And he cut two tablets of stone like the first ones. Then Mosheh rose early in the morning and went up Mount Sinai, as Yahowah/יהוה had commanded him, and he took two tablets of stone in his hand. 5 And Yahowah/יהוה came down in the cloud and stood with him there, and proclaimed the Name, Yahowah/יהוה. 6 And Yahowah/יהוה passed before him and proclaimed, �Yahowah/יהוה, Yahowah/יהוה, an Ěl compassionate and showing favor, patient, and great in kindness and truth, 7 watching over kindness for thousands, forgiving crookedness and transgression and sin, but by no means leaving unpunished1, visiting the crookedness of the fathers upon the children and the children�s children to the third and the fourth generation.� Footnote: 1This is confirmed in Num. 14:18, and in Jer. 30:11. 8 And Mosheh hurried and bowed himself toward the earth, and did obeisance, 9 and said, �If, now, I have found favor in Your eyes, O Yahowah/יהוה, I pray, let Yahowah/יהוה go on in our midst, even though we are a stiff-necked people. And forgive our crookedness and our sin, and take us as Your inheritance.� 10 And He said, �See, I am making a covenant. Before all your people I am going to do wonders such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation. And all the people among whom you are shall see the work of Yahowah/יהוה. For what I am doing with you is awesome. 11 �Guard what I command you today. See, I am driving out from before you the Amorite and the Kena‛anite and the Ḥittite and the Perizzite and the Ḥiwwite and the Yeḇusite. 12 �Guard yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be a snare in your midst. 13 �But break down their altars, and smash their pillars, and cut down their Ashĕrim � 14 for you do not bow yourselves to another mighty one, for Yahowah/יהוה, whose Name is jealous, is a jealous Ěl � 15 lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they whore after their mighty ones, and slaughter to their mighty ones, and one of them invites you and you eat of his slaughtering, 16 and you take of his daughters for your sons, and his daughters whore after their mighty ones, and make your sons whore after their mighty ones. 17 �Do not make a moulded mighty one for yourselves. 18 �Guard the Festival of Unleavened Bread. For seven days you eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, in the appointed time of the month of Aḇiḇ, because in the month of Aḇiḇ you came out from Mitsrayim. 19 �Everyone opening the womb is Mine, and every male first-born among your livestock, whether bull or sheep. 20 �But the first-born of a donkey you ransom with a lamb. And if you do not ransom, then you shall break his neck. Every first-born of your sons you shall ransom. And they shall not appear before Me empty-handed. 21 �Six days you work, but on the seventh day you rest � in ploughing time and in harvest you rest. 22 �And perform the Festival of Weeks for yourself, of the first-fruits of wheat harvest, and the Festival of Ingathering at the turn of the year. 23 �Three times in the year all your men are to appear before the Master, Yahowah/יהוה, the Elohim/The Mighty One of Yisra�ĕl, 24 for I dispossess nations before you, and shall enlarge your borders, and let no one covet your land when you go up to appear before Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One three times in the year. 25 �Do not offer the blood of My slaughtering with leaven, and do not let the slaughtering of the Festival of the Passover remain until morning. 26 �Bring the first of the first-fruits of your land to the House of Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. Do not cook a young goat in its mother�s milk.� 27 And Yahowah/יהוה said to Mosheh, �Write these Words, for according to the mouth of these Words I have made a covenant with you and with Yisra�ĕl.� 28 And he was there with Yahowah/יהוה forty days and forty nights. He did not eat bread and he did not drink water. And He wrote on the tablets the Words of the covenant, the Ten Words. 29 And it came to be, when Mosheh came down from Mount Sinai, while the two tablets of the Witness were in Mosheh�s hand when he came down from the mountain, that Mosheh did not know that the skin of his face shone since he had spoken with Him. 30 And Aharon and all the children of Yisra�ĕl looked at Mosheh and saw the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. 31 But Mosheh called out to them, and Aharon and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him, and Mosheh spoke to them. 32 And afterward all the children of Yisra�ĕl came near, and he commanded them all that Yahowah/יהוה had spoken with him on Mount Sinai. 33 And when Mosheh ended speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. 34 But whenever Mosheh went in before Yahowah/יהוה to speak with Him, he would remove the veil until he came out. And when he came out he spoke to the children of Yisra�ĕl what he had been commanded, 35 and the children of Yisra�ĕl would see the face of Mosheh, that the skin of Mosheh�s face shone, and Mosheh would put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with Him.

Deuteronomy Chapter 5

1 And Mosheh called all Yisra�ĕl, and said to them, �Hear, O Yisra�ĕl, the Torah and right-rulings which I speak in your hearing today. And you shall learn them, and guard to do them. 2 �Yahowah/יהוה our Elohim/The Mighty One made a covenant with us in Ḥorĕḇ. 3 �Yahowah/יהוה did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, those who are here today, all of us who are alive. 4 �Yahowah/יהוה spoke with you face to face on the mountain from the midst of the fire. 5 �I stood between Yahowah/יהוה and you at that time, to declare to you the Word of Yahowah/יהוה � for you were afraid because of the fire, and you did not go up the mountain � saying: 6 �I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, out of the house of bondage. 7 �You have no other mighty ones against My face. 8 �You do not make for yourself a carved image, any likeness of which is in the heavens above, or which is in the earth beneath, or which is in the waters under the earth, 9 you do not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One, am a jealous Ěl, visiting the crookedness of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 10 but showing kindness to thousands, to those who love Me and guard My commands. 11 �You do not bring1 the Name of Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One to naught, for Yahowah/יהוה does not leave him unpunished who brings His Name to naught. Footnote: 1Or lift up, or take. 12 �Guard the Sabbath day, to set it apart, as Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One commanded you. 13 �Six days you labour, and shall do all your work, 14 but the seventh day is a Sabbath1 of Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. You do not do any work � 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 cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates, so that your male servant and your female servant rest as you do. Footnote: 1See footnote at Ex. 20:10. 15 �And you shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Mitsrayim, and that Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One brought you out from there by a strong hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One commanded you to observe the Sabbath day. 16 �Respect your father and your mother, as Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One has commanded you, so that your days are prolonged, and so that it is well with you on the soil which Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One is giving you. 17 �You do not murder. 18 �You do not commit adultery. 19 �You do not steal. 20 �You do not bear false witness against your neighbour. 21 �You do not covet your neighbor's wife, nor do you desire your neighbor's house, his field, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, his ox, nor his donkey, or whatever belongs to your neighbor.� 22 �These Words Yahowah/יהוה spoke to all your assembly, in the mountain from the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a loud voice, and He added no more. And He wrote them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me. 23 �And it came to be, when you heard the voice from the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, that you came near to me, all the heads of your tribes and your elders, 24 and said, �See, Yahowah/יהוה our Elohim/The Mighty One has shown us His esteem and His greatness, and we have heard His voice from the midst of the fire. Today we have seen that Elohim/The Mighty One speaks with man � and he lives! 25 �And now why should we die? For this great fire is consuming us. If we hear the voice of Yahowah/יהוה our Elohim/The Mighty One any more, then we shall die. 26 �For who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living Elohim/The Mighty One speaking from the midst of the fire, as we have, and does live? 27 �You go near and hear all that Yahowah/יהוה our Elohim/The Mighty One says, and speak to us all that Yahowah/יהוה our Elohim/The Mighty One says to you, and we shall hear and do it.� 28 �And Yahowah/יהוה heard the voice of your words when you spoke to me, and Yahowah/יהוה said to me, �I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. They have done well in all that they have spoken. 29 �Oh, that they had such a heart in them, to fear Me and to guard all My commands always, so that it might be well with them and with their children forever! 30 �Go, say to them, �Return to your tents.� 31 �But you, stand here by Me, and let Me speak to you all the commands, and the Torah, and the right-rulings which you are to teach them. And they shall do them in the land which I am giving them to possess.� 32 �And you shall guard to do as Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One has commanded you � do not turn aside, to the right or to the left. 33 �Walk in all the way which Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One has commanded you, so that you live and it be well with you. And you shall prolong your days in the land which you possess.

Deuteronomy Chapter 10

1 �At that time Yahowah/יהוה said to me, �Hew for yourself two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to Me on the mountain. And you shall make yourself an ark of wood, 2 then I write on the tablets the Words that were on the first tablets, which you broke. And you shall put them in the ark.� 3 �So I made an ark of acacia wood, hewed two tablets of stone like the first, and went up the mountain, with the two tablets in my hand. 4 �And He wrote on the tablets according to the first writing, the Ten Words, which Yahowah/יהוה had spoken to you in the mountain from the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly. Then Yahowah/יהוה gave them to me, 5 and I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the ark which I had made. And they are there, as Yahowah/יהוה commanded me.� 6 Now the children of Yisra�ĕl set out from the wells of Benĕi Ya‛aqan to Mosĕrah. Aharon died there, and he was buried there. And El‛azar his son became priest in his place. 7 From there they set out to Guḏgoḏah, and from Guḏgoḏah to Yotḇathah, a land of rivers of water. 8 At that time Yahowah/יהוה separated the tribe of Lĕwi to bear the ark of the covenant of Yahowah/יהוה, to stand before Yahowah/יהוה, to serve Him, and to bless in His Name, to this day. 9 Therefore Lĕwi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers. Yahowah/יהוה is his inheritance, as Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One promised him. 10 �And I stayed in the mountain for forty days and forty nights. And Yahowah/יהוה heard me at that time also, and Yahowah/יהוה chose not to destroy you. 11 �And Yahowah/יהוה said to me, �Arise, go before the people, to set out, and let them go in and possess the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.� 12 �And now, Yisra�ĕl, what is Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One asking of you, but to fear Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, and to serve Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One with all your heart and with all your being, 13 to guard the commands of Yahowah/יהוה and His Torah which I command you today for your good? 14 �See, the heavens and the heaven of heavens belong to Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One, also the earth with all that is in it. 15 �Yahowah/יהוה delighted only in your fathers, to love them. And He chose their seed after them, you above all peoples1, as it is today. Footnote: 1See also 7:6, 14:2, 26:18, Ps. 135:4 and Amos 3:2. 16 �And you shall circumcise the foreskin of your heart, and harden your neck no more. 17 �For Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One is Elohim/The Mighty One of mighty ones and Master of masters, the great Ěl, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality nor takes a bribe. 18 �He executes right-ruling for the fatherless and the widow, and loves the stranger, giving him food and a garment. 19 �And you shall love the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Mitsrayim. 20 �Fear Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. Serve Him, and cling to Him, and swear by His Name. 21 �He is your praise, and He is your Elohim/The Mighty One, who has done for you these great and awesome deeds which your eyes have seen. 22 �Your fathers went down to Mitsrayim with seventy beings, and now Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One has made you as numerous as the stars of the heavens.

Leviticus Chapter 19:18

1 And Yahowah/יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, 2 �Speak to all the congregation of the children of Yisra�ĕl, and say to them, �Be set-apart, for I Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One am set-apart. 3 �Each one of you should fear his mother and his father, and guard My Sabbaths. I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. 4 �Do not turn to idols, and do not make for yourselves moulded mighty ones. I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. 5 �And when you bring a peace offering to Yahowah/יהוה, bring it for your acceptance. 6 �It is eaten the same day you slaughter it, and on the next day. And that which is left on the third day is burned with fire. 7 �So if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable, it is not accepted, 8 and he who eats it bears his crookedness, because he has profaned the set-apart offering of Yahowah/יהוה, and that being shall be cut off from his people. 9 �And when you reap the harvest of your land, do not completely reap the corners of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. 10 �And do not glean your vineyard or gather every grape of your vineyard, leave them for the poor and the stranger. I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. 11 �Do not steal, do not lie, do not deceive one another. 12 �And do not swear falsely by My Name and so profane the Name of your Elohim/The Mighty One. I am Yahowah/יהוה. 13 �Do not oppress your neighbor or rob him. The wages of him who is hired is not to remain with you all night until morning. 14 �Do not curse the deaf or put a stumbling-block before the blind, but fear your Elohim/The Mighty One. I am Yahowah/יהוה. 15 �Do no unrighteousness in right-ruling. Do not be partial to the poor or favor the face of the great, but rightly rule your neighbor in righteousness. 16 �Do not go slandering among your people. Do not stand against the blood of your neighbor. I am Yahowah/יהוה. 17 �Do not hate your brother in your heart. Reprove your neighbor, for certain, and bear no sin because of him. 18 �Do not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the children of your people. And you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am Yahowah/יהוה. 19 �Guard My Torah. Do not let your livestock mate with another kind. Do not sow your field with mixed seed. And do not put a garment woven of two sorts of thread upon you. 20 �And when a man has intercourse with a woman who is a female servant, engaged to a man, and who has not at all been ransomed nor redeemed, there should be an inquiry. But they are not put to death, because she was not free. 21 �And he shall bring his guilt offering to Yahowah/יהוה, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, a ram as a guilt offering. 22 �And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before Yahowah/יהוה for his sin which he has done. And the sin which he has sinned shall be forgiven him. 23 �And when you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall reckon their fruit as uncircumcised. For three years it is as uncircumcised to you, it is not eaten. 24 �And in the fourth year all its fruit is set-apart � praises to Yahowah/יהוה. 25 �And in the fifth year you eat its fruit, so that it increases its yield to you. I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. 26 �Do not eat meat with the blood. Do not practice divination or magic. 27 �Do not round the corner of your head, nor destroy the corner of your beard. 28 �And do not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor put tattoo marks on you. I am Yahowah/יהוה. 29 �Do not profane your daughter by making her a whore, so that the land does not whore, and the land becomes filled with wickedness. 30 �Guard My Sabbaths and reverence My set-apart place. I am Yahowah/יהוה. 31 �Do not turn to mediums, and do not seek after spiritists to be defiled by them. I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. 32 �Rise up before the grey-headed. And you shall favor the face of an old man, and shall fear your Elohim/The Mighty One. I am Yahowah/יהוה. 33 �And when a stranger sojourns with you in your land, do not oppress him. 34 �Let the stranger who dwells among you be to you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself. For you were strangers in the land of Mitsrayim. I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One. 35 �Do no unrighteousness in right-ruling, in measurement of length, in weight, or in measuring liquids. 36 �Have right scales, right weights, a right ĕphah, and a right hin. I am Yahowah/יהוה your Elohim/The Mighty One, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim. 37 �And you shall guard all My Torah and all My right-rulings, and do them. I am Yahowah/יהוה.� �
