Seeker Overlay ON
* "
If there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams ,
and he gives you a sign or a wonder ,
*
and the sign or the wonder comes to pass ,
of which he spoke to you ,
saying , "
Let us go after other gods '--
which you have not known --"
and let us serve them ,'
*
you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams ,
for the LORD your God is testing you to know whether you love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul .
*
You shall walk after the LORD your God and fear Him ,
and keep His commandments and obey His voice ;
you shall serve Him and hold fast to Him .
*
But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death ,
because he has spoken in order to turn you away from the LORD your God ,
who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of bondage ,
to entice you from the way in which the LORD your God commanded you to walk .
So you shall put away the evil from your midst .
* "
If your brother ,
the son of your mother ,
your son or your daughter ,
the wife of your bosom ,
or your friend who is as your own soul ,
secretly entices you ,
saying , "
Let us go and serve other gods ,'
which you have not known ,
neither you nor your fathers ,
*
of the gods of the people which are all around you ,
near to you or far off from you ,
from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth ,
*
you shall not consent to him or listen to him ,
nor shall your eye pity him ,
nor shall you spare him or conceal him ;
*
but you shall surely kill him ;
your hand shall be first against him to put him to death ,
and afterward the hand of all the people .
*
And you shall stone him with stones until he dies ,
because he sought to entice you away from the LORD your God ,
who brought you out of the land of Egypt ,
from the house of bondage .
