10 Mas el séptimo día será reposo para Jehová tu Dios: no hagas [en él] obra alguna, tú, ni tu hijo, ni tu hija, ni tu siervo, ni tu criada ni tu bestia, ni tu extranjero que está dentro de tus puertas:
11 Porque en seis días hizo Jehová los cielos y la tierra, la mar y todas las cosas que en ellos hay, y reposó en el séptimo día: por tanto Jehová bendijo el día del reposo y lo santificó.

13 No matarás.
14 No cometerás adulterio.
