And ye have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them:)

Verse 17 is found in chapter 29 of Deuteronomy. All Israel symbolically enters the renewal of the covenant, from leaders and elders to women, children, and foreigners. A special warning is given against the person who considers himself secure while secretly persisting in idolatry. The consequences reach even the land itself, which can become a witness to judgment. The chapter ends by recognizing that revealed things belong to the people while mysteries belong to God.

Daß nicht vielleicht ein Mann oder ein Weib oder ein Geschlecht oder ein Stamm unter euch sei, des Herz heute sich von dem HERRN, unserm Gott, gewandt habe, daß er hingehe und diene den Göttern dieser Völker und werde vielleicht eine Wurzel unter euch, die da Galle und Wermut trage,
Y habéis visto sus abominaciones y sus ídolos, madera y piedra, plata y oro, que tienen consigo.
Vieron sus abominaciones y sus ídolos de madera y piedra, de plata y oro, que tenían consigo.
Vous avez vu leurs abominations et leurs idoles, le bois et la pierre, l'argent et l'or, qui sont chez elles.
E avete vedute le loro abbominazioni, e i loro idoli di legno, di pietra, d’argento, e d’oro, che sono appresso di loro.
E vistes as suas abominações, e os seus ídolos, o pau e a pedra, a prata e o ouro que havia entre eles,
你們也見過他們的可憎之物,他們木、石、金、銀的偶像。
