New Living Translation
Deuteronomy 18:9-14
9“When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, be very careful not to imitate the detestable customs of the nations living there.
10For example, never sacrifice your son or daughter as a burnt offering. And do not let your people practice fortune-telling, or use sorcery, or interpret omens, or engage in witchcraft,
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.”
