Tanong: "Anu-ano ang Sampung Utos ng Diyos?"
Sagot: Ang Sampung Utos ng Diyos ay ang sampung batas sa Bibliya na ibinigay ng Diyos sa bayang
Israel matapos ang paglisan nila sa Ehipto. Ang Sampung Utos ng Diyos ay ang buod ng 613
kautusang nilalaman ng Batas mula sa Lumang Tipan. Ang unang apat na utos ay may kinalaman sa
ating relasyon sa Diyos. Samantalang ang huling anim na utos ay patungkol sa relasyon natin sa
isa't isa. Ang Sampung Utos ng Diyos ay nakatala sa Exodo 20:1-17 at Deuteronomio 5:6-21 at ito
ay ang mga sumusunod:

1) "Huwag kang magkakaroon ng ibang diyos sa harap ko." Ang kautusang ito ay nagbabawal sa
pagsamba sa sino mang diyos maliban sa Nag-iisa at Totoong Diyos. Lahat ng ibang diyos ay huwad
na diyos.

2) "Huwag kang gagawa ng imahe ng anumang nilalang na nasa langit, nasa lupa, o nasa tubig upang
sambahin; Huwag mo silang yuyukuran ni sasambahin sapagkat akong si Yahweh na iyong Diyos ay
mapanibughuing Diyos. Ang kasalanan ng mga magulang ay sinisingil ko sa kanilang mga anak
hanggang sa ikatlo at ikaapat na salinlahi; Ngunit ipinadarama ko ang aking pag-ibig sa libu-libong
salinlahi ng mga umiibig sa akin at tumutupad sa aking mga kautusan." Ang kautusang ito ay
nagbabawal sa paggawa ng anumang imahe, diyos-diyosan o anumang nakikitang representasyon ng
Diyos. Walang imaheng sukat na makapaglalarawan sa wangis ng Diyos. Ang paggawa ng imahe ng
Diyos ay pagsamba sa huwad na diyos.

3) "Huwag mong babanggitin ang pangalan ng Panginoon mong Diyos sa walang kabuluhan; sapagkat
hindi aariin ng Panginoong walang sala ang bumanggit ng Kanyang pangalan sa walang kabuluhan."
Ang kautusang ito ay pagbabawal sa pagsambit ng Ngalan ng Panginoon ng walang kabuluhan.
Nararapat na gamitin lamang ang Kanyang pangalan sa pagpupuri at pagsamba sa Kanya.

4) "Ilaan mo para sa Akin ang Araw ng Pamamahinga; Anim na araw kang magtatrabaho, at tapusin
mo ang dapat gawin; Ngunit ang ikapitong araw ay para sa Panginoon mong Diyos; Sa araw na iyan
ay huwag kang magtatrabaho; ikaw, ang iyong mga anak, ang mga aliping lalake o babae, ni alinman
sa mga alaga mong hayop, ni ang iyong tagaibang lupa na nasa loob ng iyong pintuang daan;
Sapagkat sa anim na araw ay ginawa ng Panginoon ang langit at lupa, ang dagat, at lahat ng
nangaroon, at nagpahinga sa ikapitong araw; ano pa't pinagpala ng Panginoon ang araw ng sabbath,
at pinakabanal" Ang kautusang ito ay nagtatakda sa ikapitong araw bilang araw ng kapahingahan
para sa Panginoon.

5) "Igalang mo ang iyong ama at ang iyong ina: upang ang iyong mga araw ay tumagal sa ibabaw ng
lupa na ibinibigay sa iyo ng Panginoon mong Dios." Ang kautusang ito ay patungkol sa paggalang sa
mga magulang.

6) "Huwag kang papatay." Ang kautusang ito ay pagbabawal sa intensyonal na pagkitil sa buhay ng
kapwa tao.

7) "Huwag mangangalunya" Ito ay pagbabawal sa pagkakaroon ng sekswal na relasyon maliban sa

iyong asawa.
 8) "Huwag kang magnanakaw." Ang kautusang ito ay pagbabawal ng pagkuha ng kahit anung hindi
sayo ng walang paalam sa nagmamay-ari dito.

9) "Huwag kang magbibintang sa iyong kapwa." Ito ay patungkol sa pagbabawal sa pagsasabi ng

mali tungkol sa kapwa o sa madaling salita, ito ay kautusan ukol sa pagsisinungaling.

10) "Huwag mong pagnanasaan ang bahay ng iyong kapwa, huwag mong pagnanasaan ang asawa ng
iyong kapwa, ni ang kanyang aliping lalake o babae, ni ang kanyang baka, ni ang kanyang asno, ni
anumang bagay ng iyong kapwa." Ito ay nagpapatungkol sa paghahangad ng di mo pag-aari sapagkat
ang pagnanasa ng mga bagay na hindi sa "yo ay maaaring magtulak sa "yo upang suwayin ang mga
naunang kautusan: tulad ng pagpatay, pangangalunya at pagnanakaw. Kung mali ang isang gawain,
mali ang paghangad sa katulad nitong gawain.

Para sa mga nakararami, ang pagsunod sa Sampung Utos ng Diyos ay ang paraan upang masigurong
makararating sila sa langit pagkatapos ng kamatayan. Ngunit ang layunin ng paglalahad ng Sampung
Utos ay upang ipakita na walang sinumang makasusunod sa lahat ng mga utos (Roma 7:7-11),
samakatuwid lahat ay nangangailangan ng awa at biyaya ng Diyos. Malinaw itong inihayag sa kwento
ng isang binatang mayaman sa Mateo 19:16, walang sinoman ang perpektong makasusunod sa
Sampung Utos (Mangangaral 7:20). Ang Sampung Utos ay patunay na lahat tayo ay nagkasala
(Roma 3:23) at dahil dito lahat ay nangangailangan ng habag at biyaya ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng
pananampalataya kay Kristo Hesu4. ______ MEANS STOMACH
