Exodus 34:10-17
New International Version
10 Then the Lord said: “I am making a covenant(A) with you. Before all your people I will do wonders(B) never before done in any nation in all the world.(C) The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the Lord, will do for you. 11 Obey what I command(D) you today. I will drive out before you the Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites.(E) 12 Be careful not to make a treaty(F) with those who live in the land where you are going, or they will be a snare(G) among you. 13 Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones and cut down their Asherah poles.[a](H) 14 Do not worship any other god,(I) for the Lord, whose name(J) is Jealous, is a jealous God.(K)
15 “Be careful not to make a treaty(L) with those who live in the land; for when they prostitute(M) themselves to their gods and sacrifice to them, they will invite you and you will eat their sacrifices.(N) 16 And when you choose some of their daughters as wives(O) for your sons and those daughters prostitute themselves to their gods,(P) they will lead your sons to do the same.
17 “Do not make any idols.(Q)

Exodus 34:10-17
King James Version
10 And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the Lord: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.
11 Observe thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
12 Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:
13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:
14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
15 Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;
16 And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.
17 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
