1 These are the statutes and rights which ye shall keep to do them in the land which the Lord God of thy fathers gives thee to inherit all the days that ye live upon the land.
2 Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, upon which the Gentiles, of whom ye shall inherit, served their gods, upon the high mountains and upon the hills and under every green tree;
3 and ye shall overthrow their altars and break their images and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the statues of their gods and destroy the names of them out of that place.
4 Ye shall not do so unto the Lord your God.
5 But ye shall seek the place which the Lord your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there for his habitation, and thou shalt go there.
