Deuteronomy 12:2-5
New King James Version
2 (A)You shall utterly destroy all the places where the nations which you shall dispossess served their gods, (B)on the high mountains and on the hills and under every green tree. 3 And (C)you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and burn their [a]wooden images with fire; you shall cut down the carved images of their gods and destroy their names from that place. 4 You shall not (D)worship the Lord your God with such things.
5 “But you shall seek the (E)place where the Lord your God chooses, out of all your tribes, to put His name for His (F)dwelling[b] place; and there you shall go.
