14 And Yahweh charged me at that time to teach you rules and regulations for your observation of them in the land that you are about to cross into to take possession of it.
15 “So you must be very careful for yourselves, because you did not see any form on the day Yahweh spoke to you at Horeb from the midst of the fire,
16 so that you do not ruin yourselves and make for yourselves a divine image in a form of any image, a replica of male or female,
17 a replica of any animal that is upon the earth, a replica of any winged bird that flies in the air,
18 a replica of any creeping thing on the ground, a replica of any fish that is in the water below the earth.
19 And do this so that you do not lift your eyes toward heaven and observe the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of the heaven, and be led astray and bow down to them and serve them, things that Yahweh your God has allotted to all of the peoples under all of the heaven.
20 But Yahweh has taken you and brought you out from the furnace of iron, from Egypt, to be a people of inheritance to him, as it is this day.
