I. To learn by heart
LORD'S PRAYER
(Traditional version)
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever.
Amen.
The Our Father is based on these passages from the Bible:
Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4.
II. To learn by heart
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
The Ten Commandments, or Decalogue, are a list of religious and moral imperatives that, according to Judeo-Christian tradition, were authored by God and given to Moses on the mountain referred to as "Mount Sinai" (Exodus 19:23) in the form of two stone tablets. They are recognized as a moral foundation in Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
| THE COMMANDMENT | THE CALL | ACTION |
| 1. I am the LORD your God, you shall have no other gods before me. | Faith (Trust in God) | All faith in God, freedom from lesser gods: wealth, sex, power, popularity. |
| 2.You shall not take the Name of the LORD your God in vain. | Respect Holiness | Respect for God and the things of God: prayer, worship, religion. |
| 3. Keep holy the Sabbath day. | Renewal | Not just the Sabbath rest, but setting aside time for prayer, good recreation, quiet reflection. |
| 4. Honor your father and your mother. | Family | Loving care and respect for all family members, elders and younger siblings, too. Respect for elders in general. |
| 5. You shall not kill. | Respect For Life | Courtesy to all, speaking respectfully to all, seeking the best for all. Respecting others' freedom while still defending all human life. |
| 6. You shall not commit adultery. | Chastity Faithfulness (Fidelity) | Faithful actions beyond just abstaining from sexual contact outside of marriage. Respect for sex and marriage. |
| 7. You shall not steal. | Justice (Honesty) | Concern for the rights of others, especially when they get in the way of what we desire. A commitment to fairness and a willingness to suffer loss rather than depriving another. |
| 8. You shall not bear false witness. | Truth | A dedication to what is real and true, even if that reality is against our interests. |
| 9. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife. | Purity | A desire to want only what God wills. A single-hearted devotion to God's way. |
| 10. You shall not covet your neighbor's goods. | Generosity | A cooperation in God's own generosity that sees all goods as belonging to God and freely given for the good of all. |
They are recorded in two chapters of the Hebrew Scriptures (specifically the Pentateuch): Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5.
***
When Jesus was asked, "What is the greatest commandment?" he responded with two:
Love God and love your neighbor. (cf. Mark 12:28-31)
In accord with this, we see the first three commandments as directed toward the first of these (love of God), and the last seven as relating to the second: love of neighbor.
