Hear O Israel: God our God is the
one Lord. You shall love God your God with all your heart, with all
your soul, and with all your strength.
Behold, the heavens, the highest heavens, the earth and all that is
on it belong to God your God. God showed his love to your fathers
more than to any other people, and he has chosen their children
after them and you out of all the nations. Therefore, open your
heart to him and no longer refuse to be guided by him. For God your
God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, the
wonderful God, who shows no favors and takes no bribes, who sees
that what is right is done to the orphan and widow, who loves the
foreigner and gives him food and clothing. Love God your God and
always keep his laws and his commands.
You shall not deceive one another.
You shall not lie to one another.
You shall not swear falsely in my name.
You shall not wrong nor rob your neighbor.
You shall not curse the deaf.
You shall not put a stumbling-block before the blind.
You shall not tell stories about one another.
You shall not hate any one.
You shall not take vengeance nor bear a grudge against any one.
You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
You shall rise before the hoary head and honor an old man.
If a foreigner lives in your land, you shall do him no wrong. You
shall treat him as one of your own people and you shall love him as
yourself.
