Deuteronomy 4:16–24

16 lest you sact corruptly and tmake for yourselves a carved image in the 5form of any figure: uthe likeness of male or female, 17 the likeness of any animal that is on the earth or the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the air, 18 the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground or the likeness of any fish that is in the water beneath the earth. 19 And take heed, lest you vlift your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun, the moon, and the stars, wall the host of heaven, you feel driven to xworship them and serve them, which the Lord your God has 6given to all the peoples under the whole heaven as a heritage. 20 But the Lord has taken you and ybrought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be zHis people, an inheritance, as you are this day. 21 Furthermore athe Lord was angry with me for your sakes, and swore that bI would not cross over the Jordan, and that I would not enter the good land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance. 22 But cI must die in this land, dI must not cross over the Jordan; but you shall cross over and 7possess ethat good land. 23 Take heed to yourselves, lest you forget the covenant of the Lord your God which He made with you, fand make for yourselves a carved image in the form of anything which the Lord your God has forbidden you. 24 For gthe Lord your God is a consuming fire, ha jealous God.
