Deuteronomy 18:11-18
11or cast spells, or function as mediums or psychics, or call forth the spirits of the dead.
12Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord. It is because the other nations have done these detestable things that the Lord your God will drive them out ahead of you.
13But you must be blameless before the Lord your God.
14The nations you are about to displace consult sorcerers and fortune-tellers, but the Lord your God forbids you to do such things.”
15Moses continued, “The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your fellow Israelites. You must listen to him.
16For this is what you yourselves requested of the Lord your God when you were assembled at Mount Sinai. You said, ‘Don’t let us hear the voice of the Lord our God anymore or see this blazing fire, for we will die.’
17“Then the Lord said to me, ‘What they have said is right.
18I will raise up a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites. I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell the people everything I command him.
