1. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.
2. Thou shalt not make for yourself idols.
3. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain.
4. Thou shalt keep the Sabbath day holy.
5. Thou shalt honor thy mother and father.
6. Thou shalt not murder.
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8. Thou shalt not steal.
9. Thou shalt not lie.
10. Thou shalt not covet.

Edit: And no, I didn't cheat. I just used a simple code that my old Sunday School teacher taught us, to remember not only the Commandments themselves, but the order that they're in.
One=None
Two=Moo (as in cows, as in golden calves)
Three=Free (keep language free)
Four=Door (of the church)
Five=Alive (respect your parents, and your days will be long)
Six=Ice Picks (can be used as a murder weapon)
Seven=Eleven (people in your bed)
Eight=Straight (don't steal, or you'll go straight to jail)
Nine=Line (don't tell lies, or "lines")
Ten=Hen (don't even covet your neighbor's chicken)

It's simple and childish, I know, but I remember it even nearly fifteen years later.

1. Thou shalt not kill.
2. That shalt not steal.
3. Thou shalt not have other Gods before me.
4. Thou shalt not covet.
5. Thou shalt honor thy mother and father.
6. Thou shalt remember the Sabbath and keep it holy.
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain.
9. Thou shalt not bear false witness.
10. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image.

I don't know if these are in order but I think I go them right.

Okay, I'm doing this as best as I can- I don't think I'd be able to name all ten in order.. so please excuse that. I really am not going to look. I promise!

~>> "Thou shall not have any other gods before Me."
~>> "Honor your mother and father"
~>> "Remember the Sabbath Day by keeping it holy.."
~>> "Do not covet your neighbors wife nor possessions"
~>> "Do not murder"
~>> "Do not steal"
~>> uhmmm.. wait.. "Do not commit adultery"
~>> "Do not commit idolatry"
~>> one more.. man i forgot.. "Thou shall not say false testimony about others.." something like that. So sorry if it isn't in order. I really get confused. Anyway, there. I promise I didn't cheat.

Errr... They won't be in order, or worded exactly how it is in the Bible, but I'll give it a shot.
Thou shall not covet thy neighbor's goods.
Thou shall not commit adultery.
Thou shall not bare false witness against thy neighbor.
Thou shall not murder.
Thou shall not steal.
Thou shall not have any other Gods
Thou shall keep the sabbath day holy.
Thou shall use God's name in vain.
Okay, 8 out of 10. At least I didn't cheat.
