3 The way the land of Egypt does, in which YOU dwelt, YOU must not do;+ and the way the land of Caʹnaan does, into which I am bringing YOU, YOU must not do;+ and in their statutes YOU must not walk.

23 And YOU must not walk in the statutes of the nations whom I am sending out from before YOU,+ because they have done all these things and I abhor them.+

30 Watch out for yourself for fear you may be entrapped after them,+ after they have been annihilated from before you, and for fear you may inquire respecting their gods, saying, ‘How was it these nations used to serve* their gods? And I, yes, I, will do the same way.’
