The story itself is told in Exodus 20, and Moses recapitulates it in
Deuteronomy 5 (so the commandments appear in two places, but the latter
is Moses speaking to the people and telling them the commandments again).
They are specifically referred to as "ten commandments" in Deuteronomy 4:13.
I'm not exactly sure what you are referring to with "three sets of
commandments".
