The FR 2006-7 thread on this has some good information.
Same smack-downs would apply to some on this thread.
"I (am) Jehovah [the Eternal] Eloah [your God] who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim [Mizraim or the two Egypts] out of the house of bondages.
You shall not have other [foreign] gods in place of (me).
You shall not make for yourself molded (or carved) idols [graven images].
You shall not lift up your voice to connect the name of Jehovah in hate.
Remember you (the) Sabbath to make it holy.
Honor your father and your mother to make long your existence upon the land which Jehovah Eloah [the Eternal your God] gave to you.
You shall not murder.
You shall not commit adultery (or idolatry).
You shall not steal (or deceive).
You shall not bear witness against your neighbor, testimony for a bribe.
You shall not covet (the) wife of your neighbor and all which belongs to your neighbor. "
Translation props to FReeper on 2006-7 thread.

This is an interesting translation. I see they got the murder item right. What is this about the adultery/idolatry commandment? I would think that idolatry was pretty well covered in 1 and 2. Wouldn’t they need adultery to cover the behavior of women, since number 10 only refers to coveting someone’s wife? Does anyone know more about this issue?
