Deuteronomy 17:2-4

Evangelical Heritage Version

² If there is found among you (within the gates of one of your cities that the Lord your God is giving you) a man or a woman who is doing something that is evil in the eyes of the Lord your God by transgressing his covenant, ³ or a man or a woman who is going and serving other gods and bowing down to them or to the sun or to the moon or to any of the army of the heavens, something that I have not commanded, ⁴ and you are told about it and you listen and investigate diligently, and it is established that the charge is true and that this abomination has been committed in Israel,
