    But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:
    For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
    Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;

    But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.
