Exodus 20:3-
5 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. ... Thou shalt not
bow down thyself to them, nor serve them:
for I the LORD thy God [
am] a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [
generation]
of them that hate me;
Exodus 32:1-
4 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him,
Up,
make us gods,
which shall go before us; for [
as for] this Moses,
the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt,
we wot not what is become of him. ... And he received [
them] at their hand, and
fashioned it with
a graving tool, after he had made it a molten
calf: and they said,
These [
be] thy gods, O Israel,
which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands [

[the stump of] Dagon was left to him. ... Therefore
neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon's house,
tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod unto this day.

lifted up thyself against
the Lord of heaven;

which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God
in whose hand thy breath [
is],
and whose [
are] all thy ways,
hast thou not glorified:

[and] that swear by the LORD, and that
swear by Malcham;

are we stronger than he?

16 Be ye not
unequally yoked together with unbelievers:
for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
and what communion hath light with darkness? ... And

ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said,
I will dwell in them, and walk in [
them]; and
I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

19 Let
no man
beguile you of your reward
in a voluntary humility and
worshipping of angels,
intruding into those things which he hath not seen,

not holding the Head, from which
all the body
by joints and bands having
nourishment ministered, and
knit together,
increaseth with the increase of God.

This is the true God, and eternal life. ...
Little children,
keep yourselves from idols.
Amen.
