Deuteronomy 12:29-32
Legacy Standard Bible
29 “When (A)Yahweh your God cuts off before you the nations which you are going in to dispossess, and you dispossess them and inhabit their land, 30 beware lest you be ensnared [a]to follow them, after they are destroyed before you, and lest you inquire after their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations serve their gods, that I also may do likewise?’ 31 (B)You shall not do thus toward Yahweh your God, for every abominable act which Yahweh hates they have done for their gods; for (C)they even burn their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods.
32 “[b](D)Whatever I am commanding you, you shall be careful to do; (E)you shall not add to nor take away from it.

Deuteronomy 12:29-32
Common English Bible
29 Once the Lord your God has removed from before you all the nations that you are entering and taking possession of, and you have displaced them and are living in their land, 30 then watch yourself! Don’t be trapped by following their practices after they’ve been wiped out before you. Don’t go investigating their gods, thinking, How did these nations worship their gods? I want to do the very same thing!
31 Don’t act like they did toward the Lord your God because they did things for their gods that are detestable to the Lord, which he hates. They even burned their own sons and daughters with fire for their gods!
32 [a] Everything I’m commanding you, you must do it with utmost care! Don’t add anything to it or take anything away from it.
