Is the original Hebrew biblical phrase for "Thou shalt not kill" in
the Ten Commandments pronounced as 'lo ratsach'? If not what are the
correct words and their pronunciation? If possible, would appreciate
the words in Hebrew also.

Hello Dortmund,

The correct words for the sixth commandment "Thou shalt not kill" are
pronounced ?Lo Teer-Tsakh.?

Lo means - Not or No
Teertsakh means - You shall murder

Here is a gif image showing the words in Hebrew with their
corresponding pronunciation.

It should be pointed out, though, for the record, that in the Hebrew
it doesn't actually say "Thou shalt not kill", but "Thou shalt not
murder".

Big difference.
