4The word of the Lord came to you face to face on the mountain, out of the heart of the fire,
5(I was between the Lord and you at that time, to make clear to you the word of the Lord: because, through fear of the fire, you did not go up the mountain;) saying,
6I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt, out of the prison-house.
8You may not make for yourselves an image in the form of anything in heaven or on earth or in the waters under the earth:
9You may not go down on your faces before them or give them worship: for I, the Lord your God, am a God who will not give his honour to another; and I will send punishment on the children for the wrongdoing of their fathers, to the third and fourth generation of my haters;
10And I will have mercy through a thousand generations on those who have love for me and keep my laws.
