The Fifth Commandment - Yisro 5769

In Perek Chaf Pasuk Aleph, we find the Aseres Hadibrois. There is a well known idea that the first five of the Aseres Hadibrois are K’negged the second set of five Aseres Hadibrois. So (אָנֹכִי יְרוָר אֱלֹקֶּיךָ) will be against (לֹא תִרְצָח), so someone who kills a human which has a Tzelem Eloikim is like denying that Hashem exists. The second is (לֹא-יִהְיֶה לְךָ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים, עַל-פָּנָי) and on the other side is (לֹא תִנְאָף), which is similar in that there is no loyalty. The third which is (לֹא תִשָּׂא אֶת-שֵׁם-יְרוָר אֱלֹקֶּיךָ, לַשָּׁוְא) swearing falsely is against stealing (לֹא תִגְנֹב), which is similar in that most swearing falsely is B’dinei Mamonus which turns out to be stealing. The fourth is Shabbos (זָכוֹר אֶת-יוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת, לְקַדְּשׁוֹ) and the other side has Eidus Sheker (לֹא-תַעֲנֶה בְרֵעֲךָ עֵד שָׁקֶר) which is similar in that Shabbos is the Kum V’asei of an Eidus that Hashem created the world K’neged Loi Saneh. The fifth which is Kibbud Av V’aim (כַּבֵּד אֶת-אָבִיךָ, וְאֶת-אִמֶּךָ), how does it fit with (לֹא תַחְמֹד) on the other side?
