5 But thus shall ye do unto them. You shall beat down their altars, and break their pillars: ye shall hew down their groves, and burn their Images with fire. 6 For thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God. The Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be his peculiar people above all the nations of the earth. 7 The Lord hath not set his love upon you, nor chosen you because ye were moe in number than all other nations, seeing you be the least of all nations. 8 But for the love which the Lord beareth you, to keep the oath which he sware to your fathers, the Lord hath brought you forth with a strong hand, and delivered you from the house of bondage, even from the hand of Pharaoh King of Egypt.
