Deuteronomy:18:14-22
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For these nations whom you shall expel listen to observers of clouds ,
and to diviners .
But as to you ,
Jehovah your God has not allowed you to do so .
*
Jehovah your God shall raise up to you a Prophet from among you ,
of your brothers ,
One like me ;
you shall listen to Him ,
*
according to all that you desired of Jehovah your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly ,
saying ,
Let me not hear again the voice of Jehovah my God ,
nor let me see this great fire any more ,
lest I die .
*
And Jehovah said to me ,
They have spoken well ,
what they have said .
*
I shall raise up a Prophet to them from among their brothers ,
one like you ;
and I will put My words in His mouth ;
and He shall speak to them all that I shall command Him .
*
And it shall be ,
whoever will not listen to My words which he shall speak in My name ,
I will require it at his hand .
*
But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in My name ,
that which I have not commanded him to speak ,
and who speaks in the name of other gods ,
even that prophet shall die .
*
And if you say in your heart ,
How shall we know the word which Jehovah has not spoken ?
*
When a prophet speaks in the name of Jehovah ,
if the thing does not happen or come about ,
that is the thing which Jehovah has not spoken ;
that prophet has spoken it proudly ;
you shall not be afraid of him .
