15“So 1watchH8104 yourselvesH5315 carefullyH3966, sinceH3588 you did not seeH7200 anyH3605 2formH8544 on the dayH3117 the LordH3068 spokeH1696 to you at HorebH2722 from the midstH8432 of the fireH784, 16soH6435 that you do not 3actH7843 corruptlyH7843 and 4makeH6213 a gravenH6459 imageH6459 for yourselves in the formH8544 of anyH3605 figureH5566, the likenessH8403 of maleH2145 orH176 femaleH5347, 17the likenessH8403 of anyH3605 animalH929 that is on the earthH776, the likenessH8403 of 5anyH3605 wingedH3671 birdH6833 that fliesH5774 in the skyH8064, 18the likenessH8403 of anythingH3605 that creepsH7430 on the groundH127, the likenessH8403 of anyH3605 fishH1710 that is in the waterH4325 belowH4480H8478 the earthH776. 19And beware not to liftH5375 up your eyesH5869 to heavenH8064 and seeH7200 the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 and the starsH3556, 6allH3605 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, 7and be drawnH5080 awayH5080 and worshipH7812 them and serveH5647 them, those whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 has allottedH2505 to allH3605 the peoplesH5971 underH8478 the wholeH3605 heavenH8064. 20But the LordH3068 has takenH3947 you and broughtH3318 you out of 8the ironH1270 furnaceH3564, from EgyptH4714, to 9be a peopleH5971 for His own possessionH5159, as todayH3117.

21“10Now the LordH3068 was angryH599 with me on your accountH5921H1697, and sworeH7650 that I would not crossH5674 the JordanH3383, and that I would not enterH935 the goodH2896 landH776 whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 is givingH5414 you as an inheritanceH5159. 22For 11I will dieH4191 in thisH2088 landH776, I shall not crossH5674 the JordanH3383, but you shall crossH5674 and takeH3423 possessionH3423 of thisH2088 12goodH2896 landH776. 23So watchH8104 yourselves, 13that you do not forgetH7911 the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068 your GodH430 whichH834 He madeH3772 with you, and 14makeH6213 for yourselves a gravenH6459 imageH6459 in the formH8544 of anythingH3605 against whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 has commandedH6680 you. 24For the LordH3068 your GodH430 is a 15consumingH398 fireH784, a 16jealousH7067 GodH410.
