9When thou art comeH935 into the landH776 which YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee, thou shalt not learnH3925 to doH6213 after the abominationsH8441 of those nationsH1471. 10There shall not be foundH4672 among you any one that maketh his sonH1121 or his daughterH1323 to passH5674 through the fireH784, or that usethH7080 divinationH7081, or an observer of timesH6049, or an enchanterH5172, or a witchH3784, 11Or a charmerH2267H2266, or a consulterH7592 with familiar spiritsH178, or a wizardH3049, or a necromancerH4191H1875. 12For all that doH6213 these things are an abominationH8441 unto YhwhH3068: and becauseH1558 of these abominationsH8441 YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 doth drive them outH3423 from beforeH6440 thee. 13Thou shalt be perfectH8549 with YhwhH3068 thy GodH430.1 14For these nationsH1471, which thou shalt possessH3423, hearkenedH8085 unto observers of timesH6049, and unto divinersH7080: but as for thee, YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 hath not sufferedH5414 thee so to do.2

15YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 will raise upH6965 unto thee a ProphetH5030 from the midstH7130 of thee, of thy brethrenH251, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearkenH8085;
