2 Then Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him: “Put away the foreign gods* that are in the midst of YOU+ and cleanse yourselves and change YOUR mantles,+

15 for fear that you may conclude a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, as they will certainly have immoral intercourse* with their gods*+ and sacrifice to their gods,+ and someone will be certain to invite you, and you will certainly eat some of his sacrifice.+

29 to keep abstaining from things sacrificed to idols+ and from blood+ and from things strangled*+ and from fornication.*+ If YOU carefully keep yourselves from these things,+ YOU will prosper. Good health to YOU!”*
