Deuteronomy 12:30-32

GOD’S WORD Translation

³⁰ After they’ve been destroyed, be careful you aren’t tempted to follow their customs. Don’t even ask about their gods and say, “How did these people worship their gods? We want to do what they did.” ³¹ Never worship the Lord your God in the way they worship their gods, because everything they do for their gods is disgusting to the Lord. He hates it! They even burn their sons and daughters as sacrifices to their gods.^[a]

³² Be sure to do everything I command you. Never add anything to it or take anything away from it.
