DE-18:1 The priests the Levites, [and] all the tribe of Levi,
shall have no
part nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings
of the LORD
made by fire, and his inheritance.
DE-18:2 Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their
brethren: the
LORD [is] their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.
DE-18:3 And this shall be the priest's due from the people,
from them that
offer a sacrifice, whether [it be] ox or sheep; and they shall
give unto the
priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
DE-18:4 The firstfruit [also] of thy corn, of thy wine, and of
thine oil, and
the first of the fleece of thy sheep, shalt thou give him.
DE-18:5 For the LORD thy God hath chosen him out of all thy
tribes, to stand
to minister in the name of the LORD, him and his sons for ever.
DE-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;
DE-18:7 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.
DE-18:8 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which
cometh of the
sale of his patrimony.
DE-18:9 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.
DE-18:10 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,
DE-18:11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or
a wizard, or
a necromancer.
DE-18:12 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
thee.
DE-18:13 Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.
DE-18:14 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].
DE-18:15 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;
DE-18:16 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
not.
DE-18:17 And the LORD said unto me, They have well [spoken
that] which they
have spoken.
DE-18:18 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 him.
DE-18:19 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.
DE-18:20 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.
DE-18:21 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the
word which the
LORD hath not spoken?
DE-18:22 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.
