 Both texts list Jesus Christ’s forty commandments followed by associated verses found in and copied verbatim from the gospels of the New International Version (NIV) Bible.

The punctuation follows the text in the NIV Bible. Sometimes the quote began earlier or ended later so the quote marks are not present with this verse.
