Deuteronomy 4:23-26

English Standard Version

^23 (A)Take care, lest you forget the covenant of the Lord your God, which he made with you, and ^(B)make a carved image, the form of anything that the Lord your God has forbidden you. ²⁴ For ^(C)the Lord your God is a consuming fire, ^(D)a jealous God.

²⁵ “When you father children and children's children, and have grown old in the land, ^(E)and you act corruptly by making a carved image in the form of anything, and ^(F)by doing what is evil in the sight of the Lord your God, so as to provoke him to anger, ²⁶ I ^(G)call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that you will soon utterly perish from the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess. You will not live long in it, but will be utterly destroyed.
