First Tables of Stone (Exodus 20)
("which Moses didst break")
Second Tables of Stone (Exodus 34)
("the words that were on the first")
1. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me.
1. Thou shalt worship no other god (For the Lord is a jealous god).
2. You shall not make for yourself a graven image. You shall not bow down to them or serve them.
2. Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
3. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.
3. The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep in the month when the ear is on the corn.
4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
4. All the first-born are mine.
5. Honor your father and your mother.
5. Six days shalt thou work, but on the seventh thou shalt rest.
6. You shall not kill.
6. Thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, even of the first fruits of the wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.
7. You shall not commit adultery.
7. Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread.
8. You shall not steal.
8. The fat of my feast shall not remain all night until the morning.
9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
9. The first of the first fruits of thy ground thou shalt bring unto the house of the Lord thy God.
10. You shall not covet.
10. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother's milk.
You're confusing other laws with the ten commandments. When Moses went up to the mountain, he didn't receive just the 10 commandments. He received instructions for living and blue prints for the tabernacle.
However, the ones specifically written on the tablets by the "finger of God" were the 10 commandments in Exodus 20:1-17.
The first five have to do with the relationship with God, the second five have to do with the relationship with man.

No confusion here.
There are two clearly different versions.
Cafeteria Christians pick and choose which ones they want to quote.
Just like most of the contradictions and falsehoods that lie in the bible.

There's the Ritual Decalogue and the Ethical Decalogue. There are generally considered three versions, Roman Catholic-Lutheran, Jewish, and Protestant, though occasionally a Muslim version, not based on the Bible is mentioned as a fourth.
Exodus 34, the Ritual Decalogue is the only place where they are called the Ten Commandments. The other two listings (Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5) the Ethical Decalogue doesn't describe them as such. Googling What book in the bible has the ten commandments predominately brings up Exodus 20.
Statistics Brain says 6,001,500,000 Holy Bibles have been printed. Ask.com reports 100,000,000 copies are sold each year. Wycliffe Bible Translators says of the worlds 6,000,000,000 people just 209,000,000 lack a Bible. While the exact numbers are unknown it's far and away the best selling book of all time.
What is it about The Holy Bible that makes it the most revered and the most reviled book in the history of mankind?
The great American evangelist and publisher D.L. Moody wrote on the the fly-leaf of his Bible these words: "This book will keep me from sin, and sin will keep me from this Book." Certainly there must be more reasons than that.
There's even The Bible For People Who Hate The Bible

Exactly.
Now I wonder how many look at Exodus 34 as"Ten Commandments"?

It is the word of God and therefore it is indestructible. Many attempts have been made to destroy the scripture in history. The Roman Emperor Diocletian ordered that all copies of the Bible be burned. It failed. Men like William Tyndale were put to death for efforts to translate the Bible into English.
Unlike other ancient myths coming from that time and part of the world the Bible has survived. The fact that many people like atheists dedicate significant portions of their time studying the Bible in order to destroy it only serves to prove it is the true word of God.
