22But death is to come to me in this land, I may not go over Jordan: but you will go over and take that good land for your heritage.
23Take care that you do not let the agreement of the Lord your God, which he has made with you, go out of your mind, or make for yourselves images of any sort, against the orders which the Lord your God has given you.
24For the Lord your God is an all-burning fire, and he will not let the honour which is his be given to any other.
25If, when you have had children and children's children, and have been living a long time in the land, you are turned to evil ways, and make an image of any sort, and do evil in the eyes of the Lord your God, moving him to wrath:
26May heaven and earth be my witnesses against you today, that destruction will quickly overtake you, cutting you off from that land which you are going over Jordan to take; your days will not be long in that land, but you will come to a complete end.
27And the Lord will send you wandering among the peoples; only a small band of you will be kept from death among the nations where the Lord will send you.
28There you will be the servants of gods, made by men's hands, of wood and stone, having no power of seeing or hearing or taking food or smelling.
