(For ye know how we have dwelt in the land of Egypt; and how we came through the nations which ye passed by;	And ye have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which [were] among them:)	Lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the LORD our God, to go [and] serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood;
