And the covenant that I have made with you, ye shall not
forget

neither shall ye fear other gods;
or make them the object of worship.

36 Worship God, the God who delivered you from Egypt in great and personal power. Reverence and fear him. Worship him. Sacrifice to him. And only him!

37 All the things he had written down for you, directing you in what to believe and how to behave - well, do them for as long as you live. And whatever you do, don't worship other gods!

38 And the covenant he made with you, don't forget your part in that. And don't worship other gods!

39 Worship God, and God only - he's the one who will save your from enemy oppression."
