2 The Lord our God made a covenant with us at Mount Horeb.
3 The Lord didn’t make this covenant with our ancestors but with us—all of us who are here and alive right now.
4 The Lord spoke with you face-to-face on the mountain from the very fire itself.
5 At that time, I was standing between the Lord and you, declaring to you the Lord’s word, because you were terrified of the fire and didn’t go up on the mountain."The Lord said:
6 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
7 You must have no other gods before me.
8 Do not make an idol for yourself—no form whatsoever—of anything in the sky above or on the earth below or in the waters under the earth.
