Nor shall you worship any foreign god.

In your distress you called(A) and I rescued you,
    I answered(B) you out of a thundercloud;

Hear me, my people,(D) and I will warn you—
    if you would only listen to me, Israel!
You shall have no foreign god(E) among you;
    you shall not worship any god other than me.
