17 Is (A)the wrongdoing of Peor [a]not enough for us, from which we have not cleansed ourselves to this day, although [b]a plague came on the congregation of the Lord, 18 that you must turn away this day from following the Lord? If you rebel against the Lord today, (B)He will be angry with the entire congregation of Israel tomorrow. 19 If, however, the land of your possession is unclean, then [c]cross into the land of the possession of the Lord, where the Lords [d]tabernacle [e]stands, and settle among us. Only do not rebel against the Lord, or rebel against us, by (C)building an altar for yourselves besides the altar of the Lord our God.
