Exodus 20:23-25
1599 Geneva Bible
23 Ye shall not make therefore with me gods of silver, nor gods of gold: you shall make you none.
24 (A)An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and thereon shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and thy (B)peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places, where I shall put the remembrance of my Name, I will come unto thee, and bless thee.
25 (C)But if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stones: for if thou lift up thy tool upon them, thou hast polluted [a]them.
