Deuteronomy 4:19-21
New American Standard Bible
19 And be careful not to raise your eyes to heaven and look at the sun, the moon, and the stars, (A)all the heavenly [a]lights, (B)and allow yourself to be drawn away and worship them and serve them, things which the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven. 20 But the Lord has taken you and brought you out of (C)the iron furnace, from Egypt, to (D)be a people of His own possession, as today.
21 “(E)Now the Lord was angry with me on your account, and He swore that I would not cross the Jordan, and that I would not enter the good land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance.

Deuteronomy 4:19-21
New International Version
19 And when you look up to the sky and see the sun,(A) the moon and the stars(B)—all the heavenly array(C)—do not be enticed(D) into bowing down to them and worshiping(E) things the Lord your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven. 20 But as for you, the Lord took you and brought you out of the iron-smelting furnace,(F) out of Egypt,(G) to be the people of his inheritance,(H) as you now are.
21 The Lord was angry with me(I) because of you, and he solemnly swore that I would not cross the Jordan and enter the good land the Lord your God is giving you as your inheritance.
