³⁴ Even today they ·do as they did in the past [practice their former customs]. They do not ·worship [revere; fear] the Lord nor obey his ·rules [statutes; ordinances; requirements] and commands. They do not ·obey [worship nor observe] the ·teachings [law; ^Ltorah] or the commands of the Lord, which he gave to the ·children [descendants] of Jacob, whom he had named Israel [Gen. 32:28]. ³⁵ The Lord had made an ·agreement [covenant; treaty] with them and had commanded them, “Do not ·honor [revere; fear] other gods. Do not bow down to them or ·worship [serve] them or offer sacrifices to them. ³⁶ ·Worship [Revere; Fear] the Lord who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and ·strength [^Lan outstretched arm]. Bow down to him and offer sacrifices to him.
