Deuteronomy 4:14-20 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

14. The Lord commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that you might perform them in the land where you are going over to possess it.

15. "So watch yourselves carefully, since you did not see any form on the day the Lord spoke to you at Horeb from the midst of the fire,

16. so that you do not act corruptly and make a graven image for yourselves in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

17. the likeness of any animal that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the sky,

18. the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water below the earth.

19. And beware not to lift up your eyes to heaven and see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, and be drawn away and worship them and serve them, those 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 the iron furnace, from Egypt, to be a people for His own possession, as today.
