³⁴ They are still observing the former practices to this day. None of them fear the Lord or observe the statutes and ordinances, the law and commandments that the Lord had commanded the descendants of Jacob, whom he had given the name Israel.^{(A) 35} The Lord made a covenant with Jacob’s descendants and commanded them, “Do not fear other gods; do not bow in worship to them;^(B) do not serve them; do not sacrifice to them.^{(C) 36} Instead fear the Lord, who brought you up from the land of Egypt with great power^(D) and an outstretched arm.^(E) You are to bow down to him, and you are to sacrifice to him.
