Exodus 34:14-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 You shall not bow down to any other god, for the Lord—“Jealous”[a] his name—is a jealous God. 15 Do not make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land; else, when they prostitute themselves with their gods and sacrifice to them, one of them may invite you and you may partake of the sacrifice. 16 And when you take their daughters as wives for your sons, and their daughters prostitute themselves with their gods, they will make your sons do the same.
