nasb@Deuteronomy:6:5 @then you shall bring out that man or that woman who has done this evil deed to your gates, that is, the man or the woman, and you shall stone them to death.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:6" @ On the evidence of two witnesses or three witnesses, he who is to die shall be put to death; he shall not be put to death on the evidence of one witness.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:7" @ The hand of the witnesses shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. So you shall purge the evil from your midst.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:8" @ If any case is too difficult for you to decide, between one kind of homicide or another, between one kind of lawsuit or another, and between one kind of assault or another, being cases of dispute in your courts, then you shall arise and go up to the place which the LORD your God chooses.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:9" @So you shall come to the Levitical priest or the judge who is in office in those days, and you shall inquire of them and they will declare to you the verdict in the case.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:10" @You shall do according to the terms of the verdict which they declare to you from that place which the LORD chooses; and you shall be careful to observe according to all that they teach you.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:14" @When you enter the land which the LORD your God gives you, and you possess it and live in it, and you say, ' I will set a king over me like all the nations who are around me,'

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:15 @you shall surely set a king over you whom the LORD your God chooses, one from among your countrymen you shall set as king over yourselves; you may not put a foreigner over yourselves who is not your countryman.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:17" @ He shall not multiply wives for himself, or else his heart will turn away; nor shall he greatly increase silver and gold for himself.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:18" @Now it shall come about when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, he shall write for himself a copy of this law on a scroll in the presence of the Levitical priests.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:19" @It shall be with him and he shall read it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, by carefully observing all the words of this law and these statutes,

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:20 @that his heart may not be lifted up above his countrymen and that he may not turn aside from the commandment, to the right or the left, so that he and his sons may continue long in his kingdom in the midst of Israel.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:18" @ The Levitical priests, the whole tribe of Levi, shall have no portion or inheritance with Israel; they shall eat the LORD'S offerings by fire and His portion.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:2" @ They shall have no inheritance among their countrymen; the LORD is their inheritance, as He promised them.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:3" @ Now this shall be the priests' due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, either an ox or a sheep, of which they shall give to the priest the shoulder and the two cheeks and the stomach.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:4" @You shall give him the first fruits of your grain, your new wine, and your oil, and the first shearing of your sheep.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:5" @ For the LORD your God has chosen him and his sons from all your tribes, to stand and serve in the name of the LORD forever.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:6" @Now if a Levite comes from any of your towns throughout Israel where he resides, and comes whenever he desires to the place which the LORD chooses,

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:7 @then he shall serve in the name of the LORD his God, like all his fellow Levites who stand there before the LORD.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:8" @ They shall eat equal portions, except what they receive from the sale of their fathers' estates.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:9" @When you enter the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate the detestable things of those nations.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:10" @There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer,

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:11 @or one who casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:12" @For whoever does these things is detestable to the LORD; and because of these detestable things the LORD your God will drive them out before you.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:13" @ You shall be blameless before the LORD your God.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:14" @For those nations, which you shall dispossess, listen to those who practice witchcraft and to diviners, but as for you, the LORD your God has not allowed you to do so.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:15" @ The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your countrymen, you shall listen to him.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:16" @This is according to all that you asked of the LORD your God in Horeb on the day of the assembly, saying, 'Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, let me not see this great fire anymore, or I will die.'

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:17" @ The LORD said to me, 'They have spoken well.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:18 @'I will raise up a prophet from among their countrymen like you, and I will put My words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:19 @' It shall come about that whoever will not listen to My words which he shall speak in My name, I Myself will require it of him.

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:20 @'But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in My name which I have not commanded him to speak, or which he speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.'

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:21" @You may say in your heart, 'How will we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?'

nasb@Deuteronomy:6:22" @ When a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing does not come about or come true, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him.
