Prends garde à toi, de peur que tu ne tombes dans le piège en les suivant, quand elles auront été détruites de devant toi, et que tu ne recherches leurs dieux, en disant: Comment ces nations servaient-elles leurs dieux? que je fasse de même, moi aussi.
prends garde à toi, de peur que tu ne sois pris au piège pour faire comme elles, après qu'elles auront été détruites devant toi, et de peur que tu ne recherches leurs dieux, en disant: Comment ces nations servaient-elles leurs dieux? et je ferai de même, moi aussi.
Prends garde à toi, de peur que tu ne sois pris au piège après elles, quand elles auront été détruites de devant toi; et que tu ne recherches leurs dieux, en disant : Comme ces nations-là servaient leurs dieux, je le ferai aussi tout de même.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Take heed to thyself, that thou be not snared by following them,.... Their examples and customs, and so be drawn into the same idolatrous practices; see Psalms 106:35, after that they be destroyed from before thee; for their idolatries and other sins:
and that thou inquire not after their gods; what they were, their names, forms, and figures:
saying, how did these nations serve their gods? what was the manner of worship they gave them? what rites, customs, and ceremonies did they use in their adoration of them?
even so will I do likewise; or however, if this was not determined on when the inquiries were made, there was danger that this would be the result of them, and therefore the caution is given.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
This caution is based upon the notion generally entertained in the ancient pagan world, that each country had its own tutelary deities whom it would be perilous to neglect; compare 1 Kings 20:23; 2 Kings 17:26. Israel was to shun such superstitions as unworthy of the elect people of God.
