Deuteronomy 18:11-18

11casts spellsH2266H2267, consultsH7592 a mediumH178 or spiritistH3049, or inquiresH1875 ofH413 the deadH4191. 12For whoeverH3605 doesH6213 these thingsH428 is detestableH8441 to the LORDH3068. And becauseH1558 of theseH428 detestable thingsH8441, the LORDH3068 your GodH430 is driving outH3423 the nations before youH6440.

13You must beH1961 blamelessH8549 beforeH5973 the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 14ThoughH3588 theseH428 nationsH1471, whichH834 youH859 will dispossessH3423, listenH8085H859 toH413 conjurersH6049H413 and divinersH7080, the LORDH3068 your GodH430 has notH3808 permitted youH5414 to do soH3651.

15The LORDH3068 your GodH430 will raise upH6965 for you a prophetH5030 like meH3644 from amongH7130 your brothersH251. You must listenH8085 to himH413.1 16This is whatH3605 you askedH7592 ofH5973 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 at HorebH27222 on the dayH3117 of the assemblyH6951, when you saidH559, “Let us notH3808 hearH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430 or seeH7200 thisH2063 greatH1419 fireH784 anymoreH5750, so that we will notH3808 dieH4191!”

17Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 to meH413, “They have spokenH1696 wellH3190. 18I will raise upH6965 for them a prophetH5030 like youH3644 from amongH7130 their brothersH251. I will putH5414 My wordsH1697 in his mouthH6310, and he will tellH1696 themH413 everythingH3605 I command himH6680.
