"When you come into the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of those nations.
10
There shall not be found among you any one who burns his son or his daughter as an offering, any one who practices divination, a soothsayer, or an augur, or a sorcerer,
11
or a charmer, or a medium, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
12
For whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD; and because of these abominable practices the LORD your God is driving them out before you.
13
You shall be blameless before the LORD your God.
14

16
just as you desired of the LORD your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly, when you said, 'Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, or see this great fire any more, lest I die.'
17
And the LORD said to me, 'They have rightly said all that they have spoken.
18
I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brethren; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him.
