Exodus 20:23-26 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

23. You must not use gold or silver to make idols for yourselves. You must not worship these false gods in addition to me.

24. “Make an altar of dirt for me. Offer your whole burnt offerings and fellowship offerings on this altar as a sacrifice to me. Use your sheep and your cattle to do this. Worship me in every place that I choose. Then I will come and bless you.

25. You may use stones to make an altar for me. But don’t use stones that you have made smooth with tools. You must not use any tools on the stones. If you do, you make them unsuitable for use in worship.

26. And you must not make steps leading up to my altar. If you go up steps, people will be able to see under your clothes.”
