And GodH430 spakeH1696 all these wordsH1697, sayingH559,
I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which have broughtH3318 thee out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, out of the houseH1004 of bondageH5650. {bondage: Heb. servants}
Thou shalt have no otherH312 godsH430 before meH6440.
Thou shalt not makeH6213 unto thee any graven imageH6459, or any likenessH8544 of any thing thatH834 is in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, or that is in the earthH776 beneath, or that is in the waterH4325 under the earthH776:
Thou shalt not bow downH7812 thyself to them, nor serveH5647 them: for I the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 am a jealousH7067 GodH410, visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 upon the childrenH1121 unto the thirdH8029 and fourthH7256 generation of them that hateH8130 me;
And shewingH6213 mercyH2617 unto thousandsH505 of them that loveH157 me, and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687.
Thou shalt not takeH5375 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in vainH7723; for the LORDH3068 will not hold him guiltlessH5352 that takethH5375 his nameH8034 in vainH7723.
RememberH2142 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, to keep it holyH6942.
SixH8337 daysH3117 shalt thou labourH5647, and doH6213 all thy workH4399:
But the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is the sabbathH7676 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: in it thou shalt not doH6213 any workH4399, thou, nor thy sonH1121, nor thy daughterH1323, thy manservantH5650, nor thy maidservantH519, nor thy cattleH929, nor thy strangerH1616 that is within thy gatesH8179:
For in sixH8337 daysH3117 the LORDH3068 madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776, the seaH3220, and all that in them is, and restedH5117 the seventhH7637 dayH3117: wherefore the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, and hallowedH6942 it.
HonourH3513 thy fatherH1 and thy motherH517: that thy daysH3117 may be longH748 upon the landH127 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee.
Thou shalt not killH7523.
Thou shalt not commit adulteryH5003.
Thou shalt not stealH1589.
Thou shalt not bearH6030 falseH8267 witnessH5707 against thy neighbourH7453.
Thou shalt not covetH2530 thy neighbour'sH7453 houseH1004, thou shalt not covetH2530 thy neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802, nor his manservantH5650, nor his maidservantH519, nor his oxH7794, nor his assH2543, nor any thing that is thy neighbour'sH7453.
And all the peopleH5971 sawH7200 the thunderingsH6963, and the lightningsH3940, and the noiseH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and the mountainH2022 smokingH6226: and when the peopleH5971 sawH7200 it, they removedH5128, and stoodH5975 afar offH7350.
And they saidH559 unto MosesH4872, SpeakH1696 thou with us, and we will hearH8085: but let not GodH430 speakH1696 with us, lest we dieH4191.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, FearH3372 not: for GodH430 is comeH935 toH5668 proveH5254 you, and that his fearH3374 may be before your facesH6440, that ye sinH2398 not.
And the peopleH5971 stoodH5975 afar offH7350, and MosesH4872 drew nearH5066 unto the thick darknessH6205 where GodH430 was.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Thus thou shalt sayH559 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, Ye have seenH7200 that I have talkedH1696 with you from heavenH8064.
Ye shall not makeH6213 with me godsH430 of silverH3701, neither shall ye makeH6213 unto you godsH430 of goldH2091.
An altarH4196 of earthH127 thou shalt makeH6213 unto me, and shalt sacrificeH2076 thereon thy burnt offeringsH5930, and thy peace offeringsH8002, thy sheepH6629, and thine oxenH1241: in all placesH4725 where I recordH2142 my nameH8034 I will comeH935 unto thee, and I will blessH1288 thee.
And if thou wilt makeH6213 me an altarH4196 of stoneH68, thou shalt not buildH1129 it of hewn stoneH1496: for if thou lift upH5130 thy toolH2719 upon it, thou hast pollutedH2490 it. {build…: Heb. build them with hewing}
Neither shalt thou go upH5927 by stepsH4609 unto mine altarH4196, that thy nakednessH6172 be not discoveredH1540 thereon.

And when the peopleH5971 sawH7200 that MosesH4872 delayedH954 to come downH3381 out of the mountH2022, the peopleH5971 gathered themselves togetherH6950 unto AaronH175, and saidH559 unto him, UpH6965, makeH6213 us godsH430, which shall goH3212 beforeH6440 us; for as for this MosesH4872, the manH376 that broughtH5927 us up out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, we wotH3045 not what is become of him.
They have turnedH5493 aside quicklyH4118 out of the wayH1870 which I commandedH6680 them: they have madeH6213 them a moltenH4541 calfH5695, and have worshippedH7812 it, and have sacrificedH2076 thereunto, and saidH559, These be thy godsH430, O IsraelH3478, which have brought thee upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
For they saidH559 unto me, MakeH6213 us godsH430, which shall goH3212 beforeH6440 us: for as for this MosesH4872, the manH376 that brought us upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, we wotH3045 not what is become of him.
TurnH6437 ye not unto idolsH457, nor makeH6213 to yourselves moltenH4541 godsH430: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
Ye shall makeH6213 you no idolsH457 nor graven imageH6459, neither rear you upH6965 a standing imageH4676, neither shall ye set upH5414 any imageH4906 of stoneH68 in your landH776, to bow downH7812 unto it: for I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. {standing…: or, pillar} {image of…: or, figured stone: Heb. a stone of picture}
Take ye therefore goodH3966 heedH8104 unto yourselvesH5315; for ye sawH7200 no manner of similitudeH8544 on the dayH3117 that the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto you in HorebH2722 out of the midstH8432 of the fireH784:
Lest ye corruptH7843 yourselves, and makeH6213 you a graven imageH6459, the similitudeH8544 of any figureH5566, the likenessH8403 of maleH2145 or femaleH5347,
The likenessH8403 of any beastH929 that is on the earthH776, the likenessH8403 of any wingedH3671 fowlH6833 that fliethH5774 in the airH8064,
The likenessH8403 of any thing that creepethH7430 on the groundH127, the likenessH8403 of any fishH1710 that is in the watersH4325 beneathH8478 the earthH776:
And lest thou lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 unto heavenH8064, and when thou seestH7200 the sunH8121, and the moonH3394, and the starsH3556, even all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, shouldest be drivenH5080 to worshipH7812 them, and serveH5647 them, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath dividedH2505 unto all nationsH5971 under the whole heavenH8064. {divided: or, imparted}
Take heedH8104 unto yourselves, lest ye forgetH7911 the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, which he madeH3772 with you, and makeH6213 you a graven imageH6459, or the likenessH8544 of anyH3605 thing, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath forbiddenH6680 thee.
For the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is a consumingH398 fireH784, even a jealousH7067 GodH410.
When thou shalt begetH3205 childrenH1121, and children'sH1121 childrenH1121, and ye shall have remained longH3462 in the landH776, and shall corruptH7843 yourselves, and makeH6213 a graven imageH6459, or the likenessH8544 of any thing, and shall doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to provoke him to angerH3707:
Thou shalt not makeH6213 thee any graven imageH6459, or any likenessH8544 of any thing that is in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, or that is in the earthH776 beneath, or that is in the watersH4325 beneath the earthH776:
CursedH779 be the manH376 that makethH6213 any gravenH6459 or molten imageH4541, an abominationH8441 unto the LORDH3068, the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of the craftsmanH2796, and puttethH7760 it in a secretH5643 place. And all the peopleH5971 shall answerH6030 and sayH559, AmenH543.
Whereupon the kingH4428 took counselH3289, and madeH6213 twoH8147 calvesH5695 of goldH2091, and saidH559 unto them, It is too muchH7227 for you to go upH5927 to JerusalemH3389: behold thy godsH430, O IsraelH3478, which brought thee upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And he setH7760 a carved imageH6459, the idolH5566 which he had madeH6213, in the houseH1004 of GodH430, of which GodH430 had saidH559 to DavidH1732 and to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121, In this houseH1004, and in JerusalemH3389, which I have chosenH977 before all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, will I putH7760 my nameH8034 for everH5865:
ConfoundedH954 be all they that serveH5647 graven imagesH6459, that boastH1984 themselves of idolsH457: worshipH7812 him, all ye godsH430.
Their idolsH6091 are silverH3701 and goldH2091, the workH4639 of men'sH120 handsH3027.
They have mouthsH6310, but they speakH1696 not: eyesH5869 have they, but they seeH7200 not:
They have earsH241, but they hearH8085 not: nosesH639 have they, but they smellH7306 not:
They have handsH3027, but they handleH4184 not: feetH7272 have they, but they walkH1980 not: neither speakH1897 they through their throatH1627.
They that makeH6213 them are like unto them; so is every one that trustethH982 in them.
The idolsH6091 of the heathenH1471 are silverH3701 and goldH2091, the workH4639 of men'sH120 handsH3027.
They have mouthsH6310, but they speakH1696 not; eyesH5869 have they, but they seeH7200 not;
They have earsH241, but they hearH238 not; neither is thereH3426 any breathH7307 in their mouthsH6310.
They that makeH6213 them are like unto them: so is every one that trustethH982 in them.
To whom then will ye likenH1819 GodH410? or what likenessH1823 will ye compareH6186 unto him?
The workmanH2796 meltethH5258 a graven imageH6459, and the goldsmithH6884 spreadethH7554 it over with goldH2091, and castethH6884 silverH3701 chainsH7577.
He that is so impoverishedH5533+H5534 that he hath no oblationH8641 choosethH977 a treeH6086 that will not rotH7537; he seekethH1245 unto him a cunningH2450 workmanH2796 to prepareH3559 a graven imageH6459, that shall not be movedH4131. {is so…: Heb. is poor of oblation}
I am the LORDH3068: that is my nameH8034: and my gloryH3519 will I not giveH5414 to anotherH312, neither my praiseH8416 to graven imagesH6456.
They shall be turnedH5472 backH268, they shall be greatlyH1322 ashamedH954, that trustH982 in graven imagesH6459, that sayH559 to the molten imagesH4541, Ye are our godsH430.
They that makeH3335 a graven imageH6459 are all of them vanityH8414; and their delectable thingsH2530 shall not profitH3276; and they are their own witnessesH5707; they seeH7200 not, nor knowH3045; that they may be ashamedH954. {delectable: Heb. desirable}
Who hath formedH3335 a godH410, or moltenH5258 a graven imageH6459 that is profitableH3276 for nothingH1115?
Behold, all his fellowsH2270 shall be ashamedH954: and the workmenH2796, they are of menH120: let them all be gathered togetherH6908, let them stand upH5975; yet they shall fearH6342, and they shall be ashamedH954 togetherH3162.
The smithH1270+H2796 with the tongsH4621 both workethH6466 in the coalsH6352, and fashionethH3335 it with hammersH4717, and workethH6466 it with the strengthH3581 of his armsH2220: yea, he is hungryH7457, and his strengthH3581 failethH369: he drinkethH8354 no waterH4325, and is faintH3286. {with the tongs: or, with an axe}
The carpenterH2796+H6086 stretcheth outH5186 his ruleH6957; he marketh it outH8388 with a lineH8279; he fittethH6213 it with planesH4741, and he marketh it outH8388 with the compassH4230, and makethH6213 it after the figureH8403 of a manH376, according to the beautyH8597 of a manH120; that it may remainH3427 in the houseH1004.
He heweth him downH3772 cedarsH730, and takethH3947 the cypressH8645 and the oakH437, which he strengthenethH553 for himself among the treesH6086 of the forestH3293: he plantethH5193 an ashH766, and the rainH1653 doth nourishH1431 it. {strengtheneth: or, taketh courage}
Then shall it be for a manH120 to burnH1197: for he will takeH3947 thereof, and warmH2552 himself; yea, he kindlethH5400 it, and bakethH644 breadH3899; yea, he makethH6466 a godH410, and worshippethH7812 it; he makethH6213 it a graven imageH6459, and falleth downH5456 thereto.
He burnethH8313 partH2677 thereof inH1119 the fireH784; with partH2677 thereof he eatethH398 fleshH1320; he roastethH6740 roastH6748, and is satisfiedH7646: yea, he warmethH2552 himself, and saithH559, AhaH1889, I am warmH2552, I have seenH7200 the fireH217:
And the residueH7611 thereof he makethH6213 a godH410, even his graven imageH6459: he falleth downH5456 unto it, and worshippethH7812 it, and prayethH6419 unto it, and saithH559, DeliverH5337 me; for thou art my godH410.
They have not knownH3045 nor understoodH995: for he hath shutH2902 their eyesH5869, that they cannot seeH7200; and their heartsH3826, that they cannot understandH7919. {shut: Heb. daubed}
And none considerethH7725 in his heartH3820, neither is there knowledgeH1847 nor understandingH8394 to sayH559, I have burnedH8313 partH2677 of it inH1119 the fireH784; yea, also I have bakedH644 breadH3899 upon the coalsH1513 thereof; I have roastedH6740 fleshH1320, and eatenH398 it: and shall I makeH6213 the residueH3499 thereof an abominationH8441? shall I fall downH5456 to the stockH944 of a treeH6086? {considereth…: Heb. setteth to his heart} {the stock…: Heb. that which comes of a tree?}
He feedethH7462 on ashesH665: a deceivedH2048 heartH3820 hath turned him asideH5186, that he cannot deliverH5337 his soulH5315, nor sayH559, Is there not a lieH8267 in my right handH3225?
They shall be ashamedH954, and also confoundedH3637, all of them: they shall goH1980 to confusionH3639 togetherH3162 that are makersH2796 of idolsH6736.
To whom will ye likenH1819 me, and make me equalH7737, and compareH4911 me, that we may be likeH1819?
They lavishH2107 goldH2091 out of the bagH3599, and weighH8254 silverH3701 in the balanceH7070, and hireH7936 a goldsmithH6884; and he makethH6213 it a godH410: they fall downH5456, yea, they worshipH7812.
They bearH5375 him upon the shoulderH3802, they carryH5445 him, and set him in his placeH3240, and he standethH5975; from his placeH4725 shall he not removeH4185: yea, one shall cryH6817 unto him, yet can he not answerH6030, nor saveH3467 him out of his troubleH6869.
RememberH2142 this, and shew yourselves menH377: bring it againH7725 to mindH3820, O ye transgressorsH6586.
For the customsH2708 of the peopleH5971 are vainH1892: for one cuttethH3772 a treeH6086 out of the forestH3293, the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of the workmanH2796, with the axeH4621. {customs…: Heb. statutes, or, ordinances are vanity}
They deckH3302 it with silverH3701 and with goldH2091; they fastenH2388 it with nailsH4548 and with hammersH4717, that it moveH6328 not.
They are uprightH4749 as the palm treeH8560, but speakH1696 not: they must needsH5375 be borneH5375, because they cannot goH6805. Be not afraidH3372 of them; for they cannot do evilH7489, neither also is it in them to do goodH3190.
But they are altogetherH259 brutishH1197 and foolishH3688: the stockH6086 is a doctrineH4148 of vanitiesH1892. {altogether: Heb. in one, or, at once}
SilverH3701 spread into platesH7554 is broughtH935 from TarshishH8659, and goldH2091 from UphazH210, the workH4639 of the workmanH2796, and of the handsH3027 of the founderH6884: blueH8504 and purpleH713 is their clothingH3830: they are all the workH4639 of cunningH2450 men.
Every manH120 is brutishH1197 in his knowledgeH1847: every founderH6884 is confoundedH3001 by the graven imageH6459: for his molten imageH5262 is falsehoodH8267, and there is no breathH7307 in them. {brutish in his knowledge: or, more brutish than to know}
They are vanityH1892, and the workH4639 of errorsH8595: in the timeH6256 of their visitationH6486 they shall perishH6.
The portionH2506 of JacobH3290 is not like them: for he is the formerH3335 of all things; and IsraelH3478 is the rodH7626 of his inheritanceH5159: The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034.
So I went inH935 and sawH7200; and behold every formH8403 of creeping thingsH7431, and abominableH8263 beastsH929, and all the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, pourtrayedH2707 upon the wallH7023 round aboutH5439.
Forasmuch thenG3767 as we areG5225 the offspringG1085 of GodG2316, we oughtG3784 notG3756 to thinkG3543 that the GodheadG2304 isG1511 likeG3664 unto goldG5557, orG2228 silverG696, orG2228 stoneG3037, gravenG5480 by artG5078 andG2532 man'sG444 deviceG1761.
MoreoverG2532 ye seeG2334 andG2532 hearG191, thatG3754 notG3756 aloneG3440 at EphesusG2181, butG235 almostG4975 throughout allG3956 AsiaG773, thisG3778 PaulG3972 hath persuadedG3982 and turned awayG3179 muchG2425 peopleG3793, sayingG3004 thatG3754 they beG1526 noG3756 godsG2316, whichG3588 are madeG1096 withG1223 handsG5495:
SoG1161 that notG3756 onlyG3440 thisG5124 ourG2254 craftG3313 is in dangerG2793 to be setG2064 atG1519 noughtG557; butG235 alsoG2532 that the templeG2411 of the greatG3173 goddessG2299 DianaG735 should be despisedG1519+G3762+G3049, andG1161+G2532 herG846 magnificenceG3168 shouldG3195 be destroyedG2507, whomG3739 allG3650 AsiaG773 andG2532 the worldG3625 worshippethG4576. {set at nought: or, brought into disrepute, or, contempt}
AndG1161 when they heardG191 these sayings, they wereG1096 fullG4134 of wrathG2372, andG2532 cried outG2896, sayingG3004, GreatG3173 is DianaG735 of the EphesiansG2180.
AndG2532 the wholeG3650 cityG4172 was filledG4130 with confusionG4799: andG5037 having caughtG4884 GaiusG1050 andG2532 AristarchusG708, men of MacedoniaG3110, Paul'sG3972 companions in travelG4898, they rushedG3729 with one accordG3661 intoG1519 the theatreG2302.
AndG1161 whenG1014 PaulG3972 wouldG1014 have enteredG1525 inG1519 unto the peopleG1218, the disciplesG3101 sufferedG1439 himG846 notG3756.
AndG1161+G2532 certainG5100 of the chief of AsiaG775, which wereG5607 hisG846 friendsG5384, sentG3992 untoG4314 himG846, desiringG3870 him that he wouldG1325 notG3361 adventureG1325 himselfG1438 intoG1519 the theatreG2302.
SomeG243 thereforeG3767+G3303 criedG2896 one thingG5100, and some anotherG243: forG1063 the assemblyG1577 wasG2258 confusedG4797; andG2532 the more partG4119 knewG1492 notG3756 whereforeG5101+G1752 they were come togetherG4905.
AndG1161 they drewG4264 AlexanderG223 out ofG1537 the multitudeG3793, the JewsG2453 puttingG4261 himG846 forwardG4261. AndG1161 AlexanderG223 beckonedG2678 with the handG5495, and wouldG2309 have made his defenceG626 unto the peopleG1218.
ButG1161 when they knewG1921 thatG3754 he wasG2076 a JewG2453, allG3956+G1096 withG1537 oneG3391 voiceG5456 aboutG5613 the spaceG1909 of twoG1417 hoursG5610 cried outG2896, GreatG3173 is DianaG735 of the EphesiansG2180.
AndG1161 when the townclerkG1122 had appeasedG2687 the peopleG3793, he saidG5346, Ye menG435 of EphesusG2180, whatG5101+G1063 manG444 is thereG2076 thatG3739 knowethG1097 notG3756 how that the cityG4172 of the EphesiansG2180 isG5607 a worshipperG3511 of the greatG3173 goddessG2299 DianaG735, andG2532 of the image which fell down from JupiterG1356? {a worshipper: Gr. the temple keeper}
AndG2532 changedG236 the gloryG1391 of the uncorruptibleG862 GodG2316 intoG1722 an imageG1504 made likeG3667 to corruptibleG5349 manG444, andG2532 to birdsG4071, andG2532 fourfooted beastsG5074, andG2532 creeping thingsG2062.
AndG2532 the restG3062 of the menG444 whichG3739 wereG615 notG3756 killedG615 byG1722 theseG5025 plaguesG4127 yetG3777 repentedG3340 notG3777 ofG1537 the worksG2041 of theirG846 handsG5495, thatG3363 they shouldG4352 notG3363 worshipG4352 devilsG1140, andG2532 idolsG1497 of goldG5552, andG2532 silverG693, andG2532 brassG5470, andG2532 stoneG3035, andG2532 of woodG3585: whichG3739 neitherG3777 canG1410 seeG991, norG3777 hearG191, norG3777 walkG4043:
AndG2532 deceivethG4105 them that dwellG2730 onG1909 the earthG1093 byG1223 the means of those miraclesG4592 whichG3739 heG846 had powerG1325 to doG4160 in the sightG1799 of the beastG2342; sayingG3004 to them that dwellG2730 onG1909 the earthG1093, that they should makeG4160 an imageG1504 to the beastG2342, whichG3739 hadG2192 the woundG4127 by a swordG3162, andG2532 did liveG2198.
AndG2532 heG846 had powerG1325 to giveG1325 lifeG4151 unto the imageG1504 of the beastG2342, thatG2443 the imageG1504 of the beastG2342 shouldG2980 bothG2532 speakG2980, andG2532 causeG4160 that as many asG3745 wouldG302+G4352 notG3361 worshipG4352 the imageG1504 of the beastG2342 should be killedG2443+G615. {life: Gr. breath}
AndG2532 the thirdG5154 angelG32 followedG190 themG846, sayingG3004 withG1722 a loudG3173 voiceG5456, If any manG1536 worshipG4352 the beastG2342 andG2532 hisG846 imageG1504, andG2532 receiveG2983 his markG5480 inG1909 hisG846 foreheadG3359, orG2228 inG1909 hisG846 handG5495,
The sameG846+G2532 shall drinkG4095 ofG1537 the wineG3631 of the wrathG2372 of GodG2316, whichG3588 is poured outG2767 without mixtureG194 intoG1722 the cupG4221 of hisG846 indignationG3709; andG2532 he shall be tormentedG928 withG1722 fireG4442 andG2532 brimstoneG2303 in the presenceG1799 of the holyG40 angelsG32, andG2532 in the presenceG1799 of the LambG721:
AndG2532 the smokeG2586 of theirG846 tormentG929 ascendeth upG305 forG1519 everG165 and everG165: andG2532 they haveG2192 noG3756 restG372 dayG2250 norG2532 nightG3571, whoG3588 worshipG4352 the beastG2342 andG2532 hisG846 imageG1504, andG2532 whosoeverG1536 receivethG2983 the markG5480 of hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 the firstG4413 wentG565, andG2532 poured outG1632 hisG846 vialG5357 uponG1909 the earthG1093; andG2532 there fellG1096 a noisomeG2556 andG2532 grievousG4190 soreG1668 uponG1519 the menG444 whichG3588 hadG2192 the markG5480 of the beastG2342, andG2532 upon them which worshippedG4352 hisG846 imageG1504.
