For everyone doing these [things] [is] detestable to Yahweh, and because of these detestable things Yahweh your God [is] driving them out from {before you}.
13
You must be blameless before Yahweh your God.
14

"Yahweh your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your midst, from your countrymen, [and] to him you shall listen.
16
[This is] {according to all that you asked} from Yahweh your God at Horeb, on the day of the assembly, {saying}, '{I do not want again to hear} the voice of Yahweh my God, [and] I do not want to see again this great fire, so that I may not die!'
17
And Yahweh said to me, 'They are right [in] what they have said.
18
I will raise up a prophet for them {from among their countrymen} like you, and I will place my words into his mouth, and he shall speak to them {everything that I command him}.
19
{And then} the man that will not listen to my words that he shall speak in my name, I will hold accountable.
20
However, the prophet that behaves presumptuously by speaking a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, and who speaks in the name of other gods, then that prophet shall die.'
21
And if you say {to yourself}, 'How can we know the word that Yahweh has not spoken to him?'
