There are three versions of
the Ten Commandments mentioned in the Hebrew Scriptures, a.k.a. Old
Testament. All are different. They can be found at Exodus 20:2-17, Exodus
34:12-26, and Deuteronomy 5:6-21. They all differ. However, the version in
Exodus 20 is by far the most commonly cited.
*** The words in red are from the Qur'an.

Qur'an:
3: Thou shalt have no other
gods before me.   17:22:
Do not associate another deity with God.
47:19:

unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven

seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any
work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant [male slave], nor thy
maidservant [female slave], nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy
gates.
12: Honour thy father and
thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee.         17:23-24: And your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Him, and to parents, good treatment. Whether one or both of them reach old age [while] with you, say not to them [so much as], "uff," and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word. And lower to them the wing of humility out of mercy and say, "My Lord, have mercy upon them as they brought me up [when I was] small."

16: Thou shalt not bear
false witness against thy neighbors.      25:72: And [they are] those who do not testify to falsehood, and when they pass near ill speech, they pass by with dignity.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his
manservant [male slave], nor his maidservant [female slave], nor his ox, nor
his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's.     4:32: And do not wish for that by which Allah has made some of you exceed others. For men is a share of what they have earned, and for women is a share of what they have earned. And ask Allah of his bounty. Indeed Allah is ever, of all things, Knowing.
