You left out the element of sin. Sin is either an offence against God or an offence against another human. Or both. Murder is a sin against God and the person who was killed.
When Jesus was asked what is the first (greatest) of all commandments Jesus answered
29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these."
There are thousands of laws that are/were given in the bible, and they all fall under these two Greatest Commandments. perfect Love for God and perfect love for fellow man will keep you from breaking all other God - given laws.
But we are not perfect, we are fallen creatures, so we needed Jesus to die a horrible death on the Cross to pay for our offences. God's Perfect Plan of Salvation.
God will be just as earnest about your soul if you get earnest about Him:
Jeremiah 29:13
"And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart."
