5 You must not bow down to them nor be induced to serve them,*+ because I Jehovah your God am a God exacting exclusive devotion,*+ bringing punishment for the error of fathers upon sons,* upon the third generation and upon the fourth generation,* in the case of those who hate me;+

15 (for Jehovah your God in your midst is a God exacting exclusive devotion,)+ for fear the anger of Jehovah your God may blaze against you+ and he must annihilate you from off the surface of the ground.+

20 In case YOU should leave Jehovah+ and YOU do serve foreign gods,*+ he also will certainly turn back and do YOU injury and exterminate YOU after he has done YOU good.”+
