What are the 10 commandments of the Lord?

The Ten Commandments are a set of biblical principles that are seen as ethical guidelines. They are found in the Old Testament in the Book of Exodus, chapter 20. Here are the traditional Ten Commandments:

  1. You shall have no other gods before me.
  2. You shall not make for yourself an idol.
  3. You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.
  4. Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
  5. Honor your father and your mother.
  6. You shall not murder.
  7. You shall not commit adultery.
  8. You shall not steal.
  9. You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
  10. You shall not covet your neighbor's house, wife, or possessions.

These commandments form the foundation of ethical and moral conduct in Judeo-Christian tradition.
