Deuteronomy 29:14-18
Deuteronomy 29:14
“Now it is not with you alone that I am making this covenant and this oath,
Deuteronomy 29:15
but both with those who stand here with us today in the presence of the Lord our God, and with those who are not with us here today
Deuteronomy 29:16
(for you know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we passed through the midst of the nations through which you passed;
Deuteronomy 29:17
moreover, you have seen their abominations and their idols made of wood and stone, silver and gold, which they had with them);
Deuteronomy 29:18
so that there will not be among you a man or woman, or family or tribe, whose heart turns away today from the Lord our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; that there will not be among you a root bearing poisonous fruit and wormwood.
