Bible. Deuteronomy
05:004:019 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou
seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host
of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve
them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations
under the whole heaven.
05:004:020 But the LORD hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the
iron furnace, even out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of
inheritance, as ye are this day.
05:004:021 Furthermore the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, and
sware that I should not go over Jordan, and that I should not
go in unto that good land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee
for an inheritance:
05:004:022 But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan: but ye
shall go over, and possess that good land.
05:004:023 Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the
LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven
image, or the likeness of any thing, which the LORD thy God
hath forbidden thee.
05:004:024 For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.
05:004:025 When thou shalt beget children, and children's children, and
ye shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt
yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of any
thing, and shall do evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to
provoke him to anger:
05:004:026 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that
ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go
over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon
it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
05:004:027 And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall
be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD
shall lead you.
05:004:028 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood
and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
05:004:029 But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou
shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with
all thy soul.
05:004:030 When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come
upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD
thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;
05:004:031 (For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake
thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy
fathers which he sware unto them.
05:004:032 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee,
since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask
from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath
been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard
like it?
