Exodus 19:1 - 21:36

Exodus 19:1-25 (NASB) 
¹ In the third month after the sons of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, on that very day they came into the wilderness of Sinai.
² When they set out from Rephidim, they came to the wilderness of Sinai and camped in the wilderness; and there Israel camped in front of the mountain.
³ Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him from the mountain, saying, "Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob and tell the sons of Israel:
⁴ 'You yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings, and brought you to Myself.
⁵ 'Now then, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be My own possession among all the peoples, for all the earth is Mine;
⁶ and you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.' These are the words that you shall speak to the sons of Israel."
⁷ So Moses came and called the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which the Lord had commanded him.
⁸ All the people answered together and said, "All that the Lord has spoken we will do!" And Moses brought back the words of the people to the Lord.
⁹ The Lord said to Moses, "Behold, I will come to you in a thick cloud, so that the people may hear when I speak with you and may also believe in you forever." Then Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
¹⁰ The Lord also said to Moses, "Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments;
¹¹ and let them be ready for the third day, for on the third day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.
¹² "You shall set bounds for the people all around, saying, 'Beware that you do not go up on the mountain or touch the border of it; whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death.
¹³ 'No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether beast or man, he shall not live.' When the ram's horn sounds a long blast, they shall come up to the mountain."
¹⁴ So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and consecrated the people, and they washed their garments.
¹⁵ He said to the people, "Be ready for the third day; do not go near a woman."
¹⁶ So it came about on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunder and lightning flashes and a thick cloud upon the mountain and a very loud trumpet sound, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled.
¹⁷ And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
¹⁸ Now Mount Sinai was all in smoke because the Lord descended upon it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked violently.
¹⁹ When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and God answered him with thunder.
²⁰ The Lord came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain; and the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
²¹ Then the Lord spoke to Moses, "Go down, warn the people, so that they do not break through to the Lord to gaze, and many of them perish.
²² "Also let the priests who come near to the Lord consecrate themselves, or else the Lord will break out against them."
²³ Moses said to the Lord, "The people cannot come up to Mount Sinai, for You warned us, saying, 'Set bounds about the mountain and consecrate it.' "
²⁴ Then the Lord said to him, "Go down and come up again, you and Aaron with you; but do not let the priests and the people break through to come up to the Lord, or He will break forth upon them."
²⁵ So Moses went down to the people and told them.

Exodus 20:1-26 (NASB) 
¹ Then God spoke all these words, saying,
² "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
³ "You shall have no other gods before Me.
⁴ "You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth.
⁵ "You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me,
⁶ but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
⁷ "You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain.
⁸ "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
⁹ "Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
¹⁰ but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you.
¹¹ "For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.
¹² "Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be prolonged in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
¹³ "You shall not murder.
¹⁴ "You shall not commit adultery.
¹⁵ "You shall not steal.
¹⁶ "You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
¹⁷ "You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife or his male servant or his female servant or his ox or his donkey or anything that belongs to your neighbor."
¹⁸ All the people perceived the thunder and the lightning flashes and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood at a distance.
¹⁹ Then they said to Moses, "Speak to us yourself and we will listen; but let not God speak to us, or we will die."
²⁰ Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid; for God has come in order to test you, and in order that the fear of Him may remain with you, so that you may not sin."
²¹ So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached the thick cloud where God was.
²² Then the Lord said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'You yourselves have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.
²³ 'You shall not make other gods besides Me; gods of silver or gods of gold, you shall not make for yourselves.
²⁴ 'You shall make an altar of earth for Me, and you shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen; in every place where I cause My name to be remembered, I will come to you and bless you.
²⁵ 'If you make an altar of stone for Me, you shall not build it of cut stones, for if you wield your tool on it, you will profane it.
²⁶ 'And you shall not go up by steps to My altar, so that your nakedness will not be exposed on it.'

Exodus 21:1-36 (NASB) 
¹ "Now these are the ordinances which you are to set before them:
² "If you buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve for six years; but on the seventh he shall go out as a free man without payment.
³ "If he comes alone, he shall go out alone; if he is the husband of a wife, then his wife shall go out with him.
⁴ "If his master gives him a wife, and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall belong to her master, and he shall go out alone.
⁵ "But if the slave plainly says, 'I love my master, my wife and my children; I will not go out as a free man,'
⁶ then his master shall bring him to God, then he shall bring him to the door or the doorpost. And his master shall pierce his ear with an awl; and he shall serve him permanently.
⁷ "If a man sells his daughter as a female slave, she is not to go free as the male slaves do.
⁸ "If she is displeasing in the eyes of her master who designated her for himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He does not have authority to sell her to a foreign people because of his unfairness to her.
⁹ "If he designates her for his son, he shall deal with her according to the custom of daughters.
¹⁰ "If he takes to himself another woman, he may not reduce her food, her clothing, or her conjugal rights.
¹¹ "If he will not do these three things for her, then she shall go out for nothing, without payment of money.
¹² "He who strikes a man so that he dies shall surely be put to death.
¹³ "But if he did not lie in wait for him, but God let him fall into his hand, then I will appoint you a place to which he may flee.
¹⁴ "If, however, a man acts presumptuously toward his neighbor, so as to kill him craftily, you are to take him even from My altar, that he may die.
¹⁵ "He who strikes his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.
¹⁶ "He who kidnaps a man, whether he sells him or he is found in his possession, shall surely be put to death.
¹⁷ "He who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.
¹⁸ "If men have a quarrel and one strikes the other with a stone or with his fist, and he does not die but remains in bed,
¹⁹ if he gets up and walks around outside on his staff, then he who struck him shall go unpunished; he shall only pay for his loss of time, and shall take care of him until he is completely healed.
²⁰ "If a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod and he dies at his hand, he shall be punished.
²¹ "If, however, he survives a day or two, no vengeance shall be taken; for he is his property.
²² "If men struggle with each other and strike a woman with child so that she gives birth prematurely, yet there is no injury, he shall surely be fined as the woman's husband may demand of him, and he shall pay as the judges decide.
²³ "But if there is any further injury, then you shall appoint as a penalty life for life,
²⁴ eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
²⁵ burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.
²⁶ "If a man strikes the eye of his male or female slave, and destroys it, he shall let him go free on account of his eye.
²⁷ "And if he knocks out a tooth of his male or female slave, he shall let him go free on account of his tooth.
²⁸ "If an ox gores a man or a woman to death, the ox shall surely be stoned and its flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall go unpunished.
²⁹ "If, however, an ox was previously in the habit of goring and its owner has been warned, yet he does not confine it and it kills a man or a woman, the ox shall be stoned and its owner also shall be put to death.
³⁰ "If a ransom is demanded of him, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatever is demanded of him.
³¹ "Whether it gores a son or a daughter, it shall be done to him according to the same rule.
³² "If the ox gores a male or female slave, the owner shall give his or her master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
³³ "If a man opens a pit, or digs a pit and does not cover it over, and an ox or a donkey falls into it,
³⁴ the owner of the pit shall make restitution; he shall give money to its owner, and the dead animal shall become his.
³⁵ "If one man's ox hurts another's so that it dies, then they shall sell the live ox and divide its price equally; and also they shall divide the dead ox.
³⁶ "Or if it is known that the ox was previously in the habit of goring, yet its owner has not confined it, he shall surely pay ox for ox, and the dead animal shall become his.
