Exodus 20:5-7
English Standard Version
5 (A)You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am (B)a jealous God, (C)visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing steadfast love to thousands[a] of those who love me and keep my commandments.
7 (D)“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.
