You shall not make a post idol of any trees near unto the altar of the LORD your God, which you shall make you.
And I will pluck up your idol poles out of your midst: so will I destroy your cities.
For you shall be ashamed of the sacred oaks which you have desired, and you shall be embarrassed for the gardens that you have chosen.
And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither shall he respect that which his fingers have made, either the idol poles, or the incense altars.
