New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Exodus 20
19 Then they said to Moses, "Speak to us yourself and we will listen; but let not God speak to us, or we will die."
20 Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid; for God has come in order to test you, and in order that the fear of Him may remain with you, so that you may not sin."
21 So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached the thick cloud where God was.
22 Then the Lord said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ’You yourselves have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.
23 You shall not make other gods besides Me; gods of silver or gods of gold, you shall not make for yourselves.
24 You shall make an altar of earth for Me, and you shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen; in every place where I cause My name to be remembered, I will come to you and bless you.
25 If you make an altar of stone for Me, you shall not build it of cut stones, for if you wield your tool on it, you will profane it.
26 And you shall not go up by steps to My altar, so that your nakedness will not be exposed on it.’
Exodus 21
1 "Now these are the ordinances which you are to set before them:
2 "If you buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve for six years; but on the seventh he shall go out as a free man without payment.
3 If he comes alone, he shall go out alone; if he is the husband of a wife, then his wife shall go out with him.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
