Deuteronomy 18:6-18

Deuteronomy 18:6-18

[6] And if a Levite  come  from any  of thy gates  out of all Israel,  where he sojourned,  and come  with all the desire  of his mind  unto the place  which the LORD  shall choose;  [7] Then he shall minister  in the name  of the LORD  his God,  as all his brethren  the Levites  do, which stand  there before  the LORD.  [8] They shall have like portions  to eat,  beside that which cometh of the sale  of his patrimony.  [9] When thou art come  into the land  which the LORD  thy God  giveth  thee, thou shalt not learn  to do  after the abominations  of those nations.  [10] There shall not be found  among you any one that maketh his son  or his daughter  to pass  through the fire,  or that useth  divination,  or an observer of times,  or an enchanter,  or a witch,  [11] Or a charmer,  or a consulter  with familiar spirits,  or a wizard,  or a necromancer.  [12] For all that do  these things are an abomination  unto the LORD:  and because  of these abominations  the LORD  thy God  doth drive them out  from before  [13] Thou shalt be perfect  with the LORD  thy God.  [14] For these nations,  which thou shalt possess,  hearkened  unto observers of times,  and unto diviners:  but as for thee, the LORD  thy God  hath not suffered  thee so to do. [15] The LORD  thy God  will raise up  unto thee a Prophet  from the midst  of thee, of thy brethren,  like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;  [16] According to all that thou desiredst  of the LORD  thy God  in Horeb  in the day  of the assembly,  saying,  Let me not hear  again  the voice  of the LORD  my God,  neither let me see  this great  fire  any more, that I die  [17] And the LORD  said  unto me, They have well  spoken that which they have spoken.  [18] 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
