Deuteronomy 4:16

Lest ye corrupt [yourselves], and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

Lest ye corrupt {H7843} yourselves, and make {H6213} you a graven image {H6459}, the similitude {H8544} of any figure {H5566}, the likeness {H8403} of male {H2145} or female {H5347},

do not become corrupt and make yourselves a carved image having the shape of any figure - not a representation of a human being, male or female,

that you do not act corruptly and make an idol for yourselves of any form or shape, whether in the likeness of a male or female,

lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
