16 a“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
17 a“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; byou shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
The People Afraid of God’s Presence
18 Now aall the people bwitnessed the thunderings, the lightning flashes, the sound of the trumpet, and the mountain csmoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood afar off.
19 Then they said to Moses, a“You speak with us, and we will hear; but blet not God speak with us, lest we die.”
20 And Moses said to the people, a“Do not fear; bfor God has come to test you, and cthat His fear may be before you, so that you may not sin.”
