I. And my master spake all these words, saying, “Thou shalt have no other boss but me.” This is the first and greatest commandment.
II. “Thou shalt bow down thyself before me, and me only; and in the sweat of thy brow will I eat bread all the days of my life, for I, thy lord and Master, am exceeding jealous of my privileges, even to the visiting of the servitude of the fathers upon their children to the third and fourth generation.”
III. “Thou shalt not curse thy master behind his back, nor secretly conspire against his prosperity; for the ox knoweth his owner and the ass his master’s crib.”
IV. “Remember the first day of the week; on that day though shalt neither work nor take thy pleasure but shalt rest thy arms, thy legs, thy back, thy hair and thy toe-nails, that though mayest be strong to work for me the remaining six days of the week, all the days of thy life.
Though shalt not hunt nor fish on the first day of the week nor go to theaters or places of amusement, lest though weary thyself, and prove an unprofitable servant unto me, lest also thou give of thy shekels and thou be tempted to demand more wages of me.
Six days shalt though labor and do all my work. Thou shalt give of the strength that is in thee; thy back, thy legs, thy arms, thy hair and thy toe-nails, though and thy seed after thee, to make profits for me, that I may possess the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that in them is.”
V. “Honor thy master that he may make the days of thy service long and the amount of thy wages exceedingly small in the land which he possesseth.”
VI. “Thou shalt not kill with thy ballot, at the polls, the system that maketh a lord of thy master and a slave of thee.”
VII. “And when thy master waxeth eloquent in speech and prophesieth of returning properity and confidence, thou shalt take it as the gospel truth, unadulterated.”
VIII. “When thy master taketh away thy wages and leaveth thee to beg or starve, thou shalt do both rather than steal.”
IX. “Though shalt not stir up discontent among thy fellow workers by bearing witness that thy master is robbing thee and them of their earnings.”
X. “Thou shalt not covet things to eat or drink or wear; neither shalt thou covet thy master’s house, nor envy him his chauffer, or his mistress’ dog; nor anything that is thy master’s ; for the earth is his and the fullnes thereof, the silver and the fold and the chattels and a thousand mills. But upon thy belly shalt thou crawl and dirt shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.”
