Deuteronomy 12:29-32

New American Standard Bible

²⁹ “When ^(A)the Lord your God cuts off from you the nations which you are going in to dispossess, and you dispossess them and live in their land, ³⁰ be careful that you are not ensnared ^[a]to follow them, after they are destroyed from your presence, and that you do not inquire about their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations serve their gods, that I also may do likewise?’ ^31 (B)You shall not behave this way toward the Lord your God, because every abominable act which the Lord hates, they have done for their gods; for ^(C)they even burn their sons and daughters in the fire for their gods.

³² “^[b](D)Whatever I command you, you shall be careful to do; ^(E)you shall not add to nor take anything away from it.
