Deuteronomy 4:16-19

16so that you do not 1act corruptly and 2make a graven image for yourselves in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

17the likeness of any animal that is on the earth, the likeness of 3any winged bird that flies in the sky,

18the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water below the earth.

19And beware not to lift up your eyes to heaven and see the sun and the moon and the stars, 4all the host of heaven, 5and be drawn away and worship them and serve them, those which the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven.
