II. Thou shalt make thee no graven Image, neither any similitude of things that are in heaven above, neither that are in the earth beneath, nor that are in the waters under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down to them, nor serve them; for I am the Lord thy God, a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the Fathers upon the children unto the third generation, and unto the fourth of them that hate me; and showing mercy unto thousands, to them that love me, and keep my Commandments.

IV. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy: six days shalt thou labour and do all thy work, but the seventh ⟨p. 31⟩day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God; in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy beast nor thy stranger, that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made the heaven, and the earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day, therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.
