nsb@Deuteronomy:18:16 @ »This is according to all that you asked of Jehovah your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly. You said: Let me not hear again the voice of Jehovah my God. Do not let me see this great fire anymore, or I will die.

nsb@Deuteronomy:18:17 @ »Jehovah said to me: They have spoken well.

nsb@Deuteronomy:18:18 @ »I will raise up a prophet from among their countrymen like you. I will put my words in his mouth. He will speak to them all that I command him.

nsb@Deuteronomy:18:19 @ »Whoever refuses to listen to the words that the prophet speaks in my name will answer to me.

nsb@Deuteronomy:18:20 @ »Any prophet who dares to say something in my name that I did not command him to say or who speaks in the name of other gods must die.

nsb@Deuteronomy:18:21 @ »« You may wonder: »How shall we recognize that Jehovah did not speak this message?«
