1. Christian Standard Bible (CSB) (2017):

The Ten Commandments

[1] Then God spoke all these words:

[2] I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the place of slavery.

[3] Do not have other gods besides me.

[4] 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. [5] Do not bow in worship to them, and do not serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the fathers' iniquity, to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, [6] but showing faithful love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commands.

[7] Do not misuse the name of the Lord your God, because the Lord will not leave anyone unpunished who misuses his name.

[8] Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy: [9] You are to labor six days and do all your work, [10] but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. You must not do any work -- you, your son or daughter, your male or female servant, your livestock, or the resident alien who is within your city gates. [11] For the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and everything in them in six days; then he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and declared it holy.

[12] 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.

[13] Do not murder.

[14] Do not commit adultery.

[15] Do not steal.

[16] Do not give false testimony against your neighbor.

[17] Do not covet your neighbor's house. Do not covet your neighbor's wife, his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.

The Ten Commandments

[1] Then God spoke all these words:

[2] I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the place of slavery.

[3] Do not have other gods besides Me.

[4] 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. [5] You must not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the fathers' sin, to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, [6] but showing faithful love to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commands.

[7] Do not misuse the name of the Lord your God, because the Lord will not leave anyone unpunished who misuses His name.

[8] Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy: [9] You are to labor six days and do all your work, [10] but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God.

[11] For the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and everything in them in six days; then He rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and declared it holy.

[12] 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.

3. English Standard Version (ESV) (2016):

The Ten Commandments

[1] And God spoke all these words, saying,

[2] "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

[3] "You shall have no other gods before me.

[4] "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] You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, [6] but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.

[7] "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] "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. [9] Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, [10] but the 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 sojourner who is within your gates. [11] For in six days the Lord made heaven and 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] "Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.

[13] "You shall not murder.

[14] "You shall not commit adultery.

[15] "You shall not steal.

[16] "You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

[17] "You shall not covet your neighbor's house; 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."


4. Lexham English Bible (LEB) (2012):

Ten Commandments

[1] And God spoke all these words, saying, [2] "I am Yahweh, your God, who brought you out from the land of Egypt, from the house of slaves.

[3] "There shall be for you no other gods before me.

[4] "You shall not make for yourself a divine image with any form that is in the heavens above or that is in the earth below or that is in the water below the earth. [5] You will not bow down to them, and you will not serve them, because I am Yahweh your God, a jealous God, punishing the guilt of the parents on the children on the third and on the fourth generations of those hating me, [6] and showing loyal love to thousands of generations of those loving me and of those keeping my commandments.

[7] "You shall not misuse the name of Yahweh your God, because Yahweh will not leave unpunished anyone who misuses his name.

[8] "Remember the day of the Sabbath, to consecrate it. [9] Six days you will work, and you will do all your work. [10] But the seventh day is a Sabbath for Yahweh your God; you will not do any work—you or your son or your daughter, your male slave or your female slave, or your animal, or your alien who is in your gates -- [11] because in six days Yahweh made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and on the seventh day he rested. Therefore Yahweh blessed the seventh day and consecrated it.

[12] "Honor your father and your mother, so that your days can be long on the land that Yahweh your God is giving you.

[13] "You shall not murder.

[14] "You shall not commit adultery.

[15] "You shall not steal.

[16] "You shall not testify against your neighbor with a false witness.

[17] "You shall not covet the house of your neighbor; you will not covet the wife of your neighbor or his male servant or his female servant or his ox or his donkey or anything that is your neighbor's."

[3] 「除了我以外，你不可有別的神。

[4] 「不可為自己雕刻偶像，也不可做什麼形象彷彿上天、下地和地底下、水中的百物。 [5] 不可跪拜那些像，也不可侍奉它，因為我耶和華你的神是忌邪的神。恨我的，我必追討他的罪，自父及子，直到三四代； [6] 愛我守我誡命的，我必向他們發慈愛，直到千代。
