2 ^b“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

3 ^c“You shall have no other gods before¹ me.

4 ^d“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 ^eYou shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am ^fa jealous God, ^gvisiting 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 thousands² of those who love me and keep my commandments.
