Blessings for Obedience

26 “You shall not make ^(A)idols for yourselves or erect an ^(B)image or ^(C)pillar, and you shall not set up a ^(D)figured stone in your land to bow down to it, for I am the Lord your God.

^4 (A)“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

¹⁵ So also you have some who hold the teaching of ^(A)the Nicolaitans.

⁶ Yet this you have: you hate the works of ^(A)the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.

^17 (A)do not devise evil in your hearts against one another, and ^(B)love no false oath, for all these things I hate, declares the Lord.”

^4 (A)Yet I persistently sent to you all my servants the prophets, saying, ‘Oh, do not do this abomination that I hate!’

^31 (A)You shall not worship the Lord your God in that way, for every ^(B)abominable thing that the Lord hates they have done for their gods, for ^(C)they even burn their sons and their daughters in the fire to their gods.
