Deuteronomy 18:15-22 (New Revised Standard)

15 The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet a like me from among your own people; you shall heed such a prophet. b 16 This is what you requested of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly when you said: "If I hear the voice of the Lord my God any more, or ever again see this great fire, I will die." 17 Then the Lord replied to me: "They are right in what they have said. 18 I will raise up for them a prophet c like you from among their own people; I will put my words in the mouth of the prophet, d who shall speak to them everything that I command. 19 Anyone who does not heed the words that the prophet e shall speak in my name, I myself will hold accountable. 20 But any prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, or who presumes to speak in my name a word that I have not commanded the prophet to speak—that prophet shall die." 21 You may say to yourself, "How can we recognize a word that the Lord has not spoken?" 22 If a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord but the thing does not take place or prove true, it is a word that the Lord has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously; do not be frightened by it.
