Deuteronomy 4:19-22

Living Bible

¹⁹ And do not look up into the sky to worship the sun, moon, or stars. The Lord may permit other nations to get away with this, but not you. ²⁰ The Lord has rescued you from prison—Egypt—to be his special people, his own inheritance; this is what you are today. ^21-22 But he was angry with me because of you; he vowed that I could not go over the Jordan River into the good land he has given you as your inheritance. I must die here on this side of the river.
