Deuteronomy:18:18-22
Seeker Overlay ON
*
I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren ,
like unto thee ,
and will put my words in his mouth ;
and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him .
*
And it shall come to pass ,
that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name ,
I will require it of him .
*
But the prophet ,
which shall presume to speak a word in my name ,
which I have not commanded him to speak ,
or that shall speak in the name of other gods ,
even that prophet shall die .
*
And if thou say in thine heart ,
How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken ?
*
When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD ,
if the thing follow not ,
nor come to pass ,
that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken ,
but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously :
thou shalt not be afraid of him .
