Deuteronomy 13:2-10

2and the signH226 or the wonderH4159 comesH935 true, of whichH834 he spokeH1696 to you, sayingH559, ‘1Let’s followH1980H310 otherH312 godsH430 (whomH834 you have not knownH3045) and let’s serveH5647 them,’ 3you shall not listenH8085 to the wordsH1697 of that prophetH5030 orH176 dreamerH2492 of dreamsH2472; for the LordH3068 your GodH430 is 2testingH5254 you to findH3045 outH3045 whether 3you loveH157 the LordH3068 your GodH430 with allH3605 your heartH3824 and with allH3605 your soulH5315. 44You shall followH310H1980 the LordH3068 your GodH430 and fearH3372 Him; and you shall keepH8104 His commandmentsH4687, listenH8085 to His voiceH6963, serveH5647 Him, and 5clingH1692 to Him. 5But that prophetH5030 orH176 that dreamerH2492 of dreamsH2472 shall be 6putH4191 toH4191 deathH4191, becauseH3588 he has spokenH1696 falselyH5627 againstH5921 the LordH3068 your GodH430 who broughtH3318 you outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 and redeemedH6299 you from the houseH1004 of 7slaveryH5650, 8to driveH5080 you from the wayH1870 in whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 commandedH6680 you to walkH1980. 9So you shall eliminateH1197 the evilH7451 from amongH7130 you.

6“10IfH3588 your brotherH251, your mother’sH517 sonH1121, orH176 your sonH1121 orH176 daughterH1323, orH176 the wifeH802 11you cherishH2436, orH176 your friendH7453 whoH834 is like your own soulH5315, enticesH5496 you secretlyH5643, sayingH559, ‘12Let’s goH1980 and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430’ (whomH834 neitherH3808 you norH3808 your fathersH1 have knownH3045, 7of the godsH430 of the peoplesH5971 whoH834 are aroundH5439 you, nearH7138 you, orH176 farH7350 from you, from one endH7097 of the earthH776 to the other endH7097), 813you shall not consentH14 to him or listenH8085 to him; 14and your eyeH5869 shall not pityH2347 him, norH3808 shall you spareH2550 or concealH3680 him. 915InsteadH3588, you shall mostH2026 certainlyH2026 killH2026 him; 16your handH3027 shall be firstH7223 against him to putH4191 him toH4191 deathH4191, and afterwardH314 the handH3027 of allH3605 the peopleH5971. 10So you shall stoneH5619H68 him 17to deathH4191, becauseH3588 he has attemptedH1245 18to driveH5080 you awayH5080 from the LordH3068 your GodH430 who broughtH3318 you outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, out of the houseH1004 of 19slaveryH5650.
