II.

Oh man, wouldst thou live blissfully, And dwell with God eternally,
Thou shalt observe the ten commands,
Written by God with his hands:

Kyrioleis.

Thy God and Lord I am alway;
No other God shall make thee stray;
Thy heart must ever trust in me;
Mine own kingdom shalt thou be:

Kyrioleis.

My name to honour thou shalt heed,
And call on me in time of need.
Thou shalt keep whole the sabbath day, That so in thee I work may:

Kyrioleis.

To thy father and mother thou
Shalt, next me, in obedience bow;
None kill, nor yield to anger wild;
And keep thy marriage undefiled:

Kyrioleis.

From any one thou shalt not steal;
Falsely with others never deal;
Thy neighbour's wife thou shalt not eye: Let his be his welcomely!

Kyrioleis.
