-
Now I know that the Lord is greater than all other gods, for he did this to those who had treated Israel arrogantly.”
-
“You shall have no other gods before me.
-
“Be careful to do everything I have said to you. Do not invoke the names of other gods; do not let them be heard on your lips.
-
What other nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the Lord our God is near us whenever we pray to him?
-
“You shall have no other gods before me.
-
Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you;
-
for they will turn your children away from following me to serve other gods, and the Lord’s anger will burn against you and will quickly destroy you.
-
If you ever forget the Lord your God and follow other gods and worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed.
-
Be careful, or you will be enticed to turn away and worship other gods and bow down to them.
-
the curse if you disobey the commands of the Lord your God and turn from the way that I command you today by following other gods, which you have not known.

Worshiping Other Gods
If a prophet, or one who foretells by dreams, appears among you and announces to you a sign or wonder,
-
and if the sign or wonder spoken of takes place, and the prophet says, “Let us follow other gods” (gods you have not known) “and let us worship them,”
-
If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, “Let us go and worship other gods” (gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known,
-
gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other),
-
that troublemakers have arisen among you and have led the people of their town astray, saying, “Let us go and worship other gods” (gods you have not known),
-
Worshiping Other Gods
Do not set up any wooden Asherah pole beside the altar you build to the Lord your God,
-
and contrary to my command has worshiped other gods, bowing down to them or to the sun or the moon or the stars in the sky,
-
But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, is to be put to death.”
-
Otherwise, they will teach you to follow all the detestable things they do in worshiping their gods, and you will sin against the Lord your God.
-
Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them.
-
The Lord will drive you and the king you set over you to a nation unknown to you or your ancestors. There you will worship other gods, gods of wood and stone.
-
Then the Lord will scatter you among all nations, from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship other gods—gods of wood and stone, which neither you nor your ancestors have known.
-
They went off and worshiped other gods and bowed down to them, gods they did not know, gods he had not given them.
-
But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them,
-
And I will certainly hide my face in that day because of all their wickedness in turning to other gods.
