猶太人的10條commandments指的是《摩西十誡》,傳說是神(耶和華)在西奈山的山頂親自傳達給摩西的,是耶和華對以色列人的告誡。其英文原文和翻譯如下:
The Ten Commandments(摩西十誡)
1、I am The Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me.
第壹條:我是耶和華-妳的上帝,曾將妳從埃及地為奴之家領出來,除了我之外,妳不可有別的神。
2、You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;you shall not bow down to them or serve them;
for I The Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate Me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love Me and keep My Commandments.
第二條:不可為自己雕刻偶像,也不可做什麽形象仿佛上天、下地,和地底下、水中的百物。不可跪拜那些像,也不可侍奉它,因為我耶和華-妳的上帝是忌邪的上帝。恨我的,我必追討他的罪,自父及子,直到三四代;愛我、守我戒命的,我必向他們發慈愛,直到千代。
3、You shall not take The Name of The Lord your God in vain; for The Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His Name in vain.
第三條:不可妄稱耶和華-妳上帝的名;因為妄稱耶和華名的,耶和華必不以他為無罪。
4、Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work; but the seventh day is a Sabbath to The Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your manservant, or your maidservant, or your cattle, or the sojourner who is within your gates;
for in six days The Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore The Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
第四條:當記念安息日,守為聖日。六日要勞碌、做妳的工,但第七日是向耶和華-妳上帝當守的安息日。這壹日妳和妳的兒女、仆婢、牲畜,並妳城裏寄居的客旅,無論何工都不可做;因為六日之內,耶和華造天、地、海,和其中的萬物,第七日便安息,所以耶和華賜福與安息日,定為聖日。
5、Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which The Lord your God gives you.
第五條:當孝敬父母,使妳的日子在耶和華-妳上帝所賜妳的土地上得以長久。
6、You shall not kill.
第六條:不可殺人。
7、You shall not commit adultery.
第七條:不可奸淫。
8、You shall not steal.
第八條:不可偷盜。
9、You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
第九條:不可做假見證據陷害人。
10、You shall not covet your neighbor’ s house; you shall not covet your neighbor‘ s wife, or his manservant, or his maidservant, or his ox, or his ass, or anything that is your neighbors.
第十條:不可貪戀他人的房屋;也不可貪戀他人的妻子、仆婢、牛驢,並他壹切所有的

《摩西十誡》的產生背景
《聖經》中記載,由於移居到埃及的猶太人勞動勤奮,且擅長貿易,因此積攢了許多財富。這引起了執政者的不滿。再加之執政者對於以色列人的恐懼,法老下令殺死新出生的猶太男孩。
摩西出生後其母親為保其性命就取了壹個蒲草箱,抹上石漆和石油,將孩子放在裏面,把箱子擱在河邊的蘆荻中。後來蒲草箱被在河中洗澡的埃及公主發現,帶回了宮中。
長大後,摩西為了他的弟兄以色列人失手殺死了壹名毆打猶太人的士兵,為了躲避法老的追殺,他來到了米甸並娶祭司的女兒西坡拉為妻,生有壹子。
壹日,摩西受到了耶和華的感召,回到埃及,並帶領居住在埃及的猶太人,返回故鄉。在回鄉的路上,摩西得到了耶和華所頒布的《十誡》,即《摩西十誡》。
