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

Thus I fell down before the LORD forty days and forty nights, as I fell down at the first; because the LORD had said he would destroy you.

Thus shall you do unto all the cities which are very far off from you, which are not of the cities of these nations.

Even all nations shall say, Why has the LORD done thus unto this land? what does the heat of this great anger mean?

Do you thus repay the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? is not he your father that has bought you? has he not made you, and established you?
