Exodus 34:16 in Context — Exodus 34

14 Porque não te hás de inclinar a deus alheio; que o SENHOR, cujo nome é zeloso, Deus zeloso é.

15 Portanto não farás aliança com os moradores daquela terra; pois senão fornicarão após seus deuses, e sacrificarão a seus deuses, e te chamarão, e comerás de seus sacrifícios;

16 Ou, se tomarem de suas filhas para teus filhos, e fornicarem suas filhas após seus deuses, farão também fornicar a teus filhos atrás dos deuses delas.

17 Não farás deuses de fundição para ti.

18 A festa dos pães ázimos guardarás: sete dias comerás sem levedar, segundo te mandei, no tempo do mês de Abibe; porque no mês de Abibe saíste do Egito.
