⁵ But thus you shall deal with them: you shall ^(A)destroy their altars, and break down their sacred pillars, and cut down their ^[a]wooden images, and burn their carved images with fire.

²⁴ You shall not ^(A)bow down to their gods, nor serve them, ^(B)nor do according to their works; ^(C)but you shall utterly overthrow them and completely break down their sacred pillars.

^2 (A)You shall utterly destroy all the places where the nations which you shall dispossess served their gods, ^(B)on the high mountains and on the hills and under every green tree. ³ And ^(C)you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and burn their ^[a]wooden images with fire; you shall cut down the carved images of their gods and destroy their names from that place.

¹³ But you shall ^(A)destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and ^(B)cut down their wooden images

²⁵ Now it came to pass the same night that the Lord said to him, “Take your father’s young bull, the second bull of seven years old, and ^(A)tear down the altar of ^(B)Baal that your father has, and ^(C)cut down the ^[a]wooden image that is beside it; ²⁶ and build an altar to the Lord your God on top of this ^[b]rock in the proper arrangement, and take the second bull and offer a burnt sacrifice with the wood of the image which you shall cut down.”

^22 (A)You shall not set up a sacred pillar, which the Lord your God hates.

²¹ Then I took your sin, the calf which you had made, and burned it with fire and crushed it and ground it very small, until it was as fine as dust; and I ^(A)threw its dust into the brook that descended from the mountain.

²⁵ You shall burn the carved images of their gods with fire; you shall not ^(A)covet^[a] the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it for yourselves, lest you be snared by it; for it is an abomination to the Lord your God.
