Most people get this WRONG!. The first commandment is not thou shalt not anything but is: 1. I am the L-rd your G-d who led you out of the land of Egypt. And that is the entirety of the first commandment as 2a You shall have no other G-ds is part of the second commandment along with 2b You shall not make a graven image. 3. You shall not use the name of the L-rd your G-d in vain. That is why I am using hyphens in place of o in the key words. 4. Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. But in Deuteronomy the word Remember is replaced with Guard. These are two different elements of the Sabbath, the first is a positive command to observe it as a special day and the second is simply a negative command not to perform forbidden labour. Lying in bed doing nothing all day because you're lazy may be observing the second half of it but it's not the correct way to observe Sabbath. The commandment also prevents you from making your animals or servants work for you. 5. Honour your mother and your father. 6. You shall not murder. Those who kill "in the name" of their religion often seem to forget this law. Various death penalties referred to later in the bible can only be issued by a court, not individuals, and only after a fair trial. And the guilty party must have been warned. By the way, this law applies to "non-observants" too (i.e. you are guilty of murder if you kill them too). 7. You shall not commit adultery: actually this also forbids incestual relationships,the exact details of which are outlined in Leviticus. (Is it chapter 18? Can't remember exactly) 8. You shall not steal. This applies not only to property but to people too, i.e. kidnapping people from places like Africa to make them slaves. They seemed to forget this law during the slave-trade period. 9. You shall not bear false witness. Fabricating evidence to get a conviction... planting fake evidence... all part of this commandment. 10. You shall not covet. The commandment gives a list but this is merely examples and is not limited to those items listed (in fact it clarifies "or anything that is your neighbour's"). You must be content with what G-d has provided for you. You can strive for better but should not be looking over at what others have.

First, you have to name which version of the bible you wish it to come from. Terminology differs in each bible.
Second, you have to name which denomination you wish them to come from.
While they are all biblical - various denominations list them differently. They are not numbered in the bible.
Plus, do you want the Exodus version or the Deuteronomy version?
The Jews have one way.
The Lutherans and Catholics have another.
The Protestants have another.
The Orthodox have another.
Most Protestants don't even count "I am the Lord Your God. - whereas Jews, Lutherans, Catholics and the Orthodox list it as part of the first commandment.

You shall have no other Gods before me.
You shall not make for yourself any carved 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 nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
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.
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
You shall not murder.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s."
