Different versions of Leviticus present Verse 7 differently, for instance:

So they shall no longer offer their sacrifices to goat-idols or demons or field spirits with which they have played the prostitute. (AMP)

And they may no longer sacrifice their sacrifices to the goat-idols after which they were prostituting (LEB)

Israel must stop offering any of their sacrifices to statues of gods that look like goats. When they offer sacrifices to those statues, they are not faithful to me. That is a law for them that will last for all time to come. (NIRV)

Does it mean that Israel sometimes offered sacrifices to goat-shaped idols which they considered d demi-gods ? Or, did they carry some statues of goat as a symbol of something say,fertility against the clear commandment ? My question therefore is: What does Leviticus 17:7 actually denote ? Inputs from any denomination are welcome.
