Gen Z: Exodus 20
1And God was like, “Yo, listen up, I’m about to drop some knowledge.”
2I’m the Lord, your God, who pulled you outta Egypt, away from that bondage vibe.
3No cap, don’t have any other gods before me.
4Don’t be making any idols or images of anything up in heaven, on the ground, or in the water below.
5Don’t bow down or serve them, 'cause I’m a jealous God, and I’ll visit the drama of the fam on the kids for generations if they hate me.
6But I’ll show mad mercy to thousands who love me and keep it real with my commandments.
7Don’t use the name of the Lord in a sus way; He won’t let that slide.
8Remember to keep the Sabbath day lit and holy.
9Work for six days, then get all your stuff done.
10But on the seventh day, it’s the Lord's chill day: no work for you, your fam, or your squad.
11In six days, the Lord created the whole universe, the sea, and everything in it, then took a chill day: so the Lord blessed the sabbath and made it special.
12Show mad respect to your parents so you can live long on the land God’s giving you, no cap.
13No cap, don’t kill.
14For real, don’t cheat on your partner.
15Straight up, don’t steal.
16Don’t spread lies about your neighbor, that’s sus.
17Don’t be jealous of your neighbor’s house, their spouse, or anything they own, periodt.
18Everyone saw the thunder, lightning, and heard the trumpet blaring, and the mountain was all smoky: they were shook and kept their distance.
19They told Moses, "You talk to us, and we’ll listen, but don’t let God chat with us, or we might die."
20Moses was like, "Chill out, fam: God just wants to test you, so you keep it real and don’t sin."
21The crew kept their distance, while Moses vibed closer to the thick darkness where God was chillin'.
22The Lord told Moses, "Yo, tell the Israel fam, you’ve seen me chat with you from heaven."
23Don’t be making silver or gold gods; that’s sus.
24You gotta build me an altar of dirt and bring your burnt offerings and peace offerings, like sheep and oxen: wherever I put my name, I’ll pull up and bless you, no cap.
25If you make me a stone altar, keep it raw, no fancy cuts: if you use tools, you just messed it up.
26Also, don’t climb steps to my altar, or else your nakedness might get exposed, fr.
