BBE(i)
15 But with everyone who is here with us today before the Lord our God, as well as with those who are not here:
16 {\I For you have in mind how we were living in the land of Egypt; and how we came through all the nations which were on your way;
17 And you have seen their disgusting doings, and the images of wood and stone and silver and gold which were among them:}
18 So that there may not be among you any man or woman or family or tribe whose heart is turned away from the Lord our God today, to go after other gods and give them worship; or any root among you whose fruit is poison and bitter sorrow;
19 If such a man, hearing the words of this oath, takes comfort in the thought that he will have peace even if he goes on in the pride of his heart, taking whatever chance may give him:
20 The Lord will have no mercy on him, but the wrath of the Lord will be burning against that man, and all the curses recorded in this book will be waiting for him, and the Lord will take away his name completely from the earth.
