Deuteronomy 4:15-23

15And takeH8104 great heedH8104 to your soulsH5315 (for ye sawH7200 no formH8544 on the dayH3117 that Jehovah spokeH1696 to you in HorebH2722 from the midstH8432 of the fireH784),

16lestH6435 ye corruptH7843 yourselves, and makeH6213 you a graven imageH6459, the formH8544 of any figure, the patternH8403 of maleH2145 or femaleH5347,

17the patternH8403 of any beast that is on the earthH776, the patternH8403 of any wingedH3671 fowl that flieth in the heavenH8064,

18the patternH8403 of anything that creepeth on the groundH776, the patternH8403 of any fishH1710 that is in the watersH4325 under the earthH776;

19and lestH6435 thou liftH5375 up thine eyesH5869 to the heavensH8064, and seeH7200 the sunH8121, and the moonH3394, and the starsH3556, the whole hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and be drawn awayH5375 and bowH7812 downH7812 to them and serveH5647 them, which Jehovah thy 1GodH430 hath assigned unto all peoplesH5971 under the whole heavenH8064.

20But you hath Jehovah takenH3947, and hath broughtH3318 you forthH3318 out of the ironH1270 furnaceH3564, out of EgyptH4714, that ye might beH1961 to him a peopleH5971 of inheritanceH5159, as it is this dayH3117.

21And Jehovah was angryH599 with me on your account, and sworeH7650 that I should not goH935 over the JordanH3383, and that I should not enter in to that goodH2896 landH776 which Jehovah thy 2GodH430 giveth thee [for] an inheritanceH5159;

22for I shall dieH4191 in this landH776, I shall not go over the JordanH3383; but ye shall go over, and possessH3423 this goodH2896 landH776.

23TakeH8104 heedH8104 to yourselves lestH6435 ye forgetH7911 the covenantH1285 of Jehovah your 3GodH430, which he madeH6213 with you, and makeH6213 yourselves a graven imageH6459, the formH8544 of anything which Jehovah thy 4GodH430 hath forbidden thee.
