9So you shall comeH935 to 1the LeviticalH3881 priestH3548 or the judgeH8199 whoH834 is in office in thoseH1992 daysH3117, and you shall inquireH1875 of them and they will declareH5046 to you the verdictH1697 in the caseH4941. 10You shall doH6213 accordingH5921 to the 2termsH6310 of the verdictH1697 whichH834 they declareH5046 to you from that placeH4725 whichH834 the LordH3068 choosesH977; and you shall be carefulH8104 to observeH6213 according to allH3605 that they teachH3384 you. 113AccordingH5921 to the 4termsH6310 of the lawH8451 whichH834 they teachH3384 you, and accordingH5921 to the verdictH4941 whichH834 they tellH5046 you, you shall doH6213; you shall not turnH5493 asideH5493 from the wordH1697 whichH834 they declareH5046 to you, to the rightH3225 or the leftH8040. 12The manH376 whoH834 actsH6213 5presumptuouslyH2087 by not listeningH8085 to the priestH3548 who standsH5975 thereH8033 to serveH8334 the LordH3068 your GodH430, norH176 to the judgeH8199, that manH376 shall dieH4191; thus you shall purgeH1197 the evilH7451 from IsraelH3478. 13Then allH3605 the peopleH5971 will hearH8085 and be afraidH3372, and will not actH2102 6presumptuouslyH2102 againH5750.
