³ You shall not do according to what is ^(A)done in the land of Egypt where you lived, nor are you to do according to what is ^(B)done in the land of Canaan where I am bringing you; you shall not walk in their statutes.

²³ Moreover, you shall not walk in ^(A)the statutes of the nation which I will cast out before you, for they did all these things, and ^(B)therefore I have loathed them.

³⁰ beware lest you be ensnared ^[a]to follow them, after they are destroyed before you, and lest you inquire after their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations serve their gods, that I also may do likewise?’
