14For these nations that you are about to possess listen to soothsayers and to diviners, but you must not do so; the LORD your God has not given this to you.15The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet from your midst, from your brothers, like me; you shall listen to him.16This is according to everything you asked of the LORD your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly, saying, 'Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, nor see this great fire again, lest I die.'17And the LORD said to me, 'They have done well in what they spoke.'18I will raise up for them a prophet from the midst of their brothers like you, and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them everything I command him.19And the man who does not listen to the words that he speaks in my name, I myself will require it of him.20But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.21And if you say in your heart, 'How shall we know the word that the LORD has not spoken?'22When the prophet speaks in the name of the LORD and the word does not take place or come to pass, that is the word which the LORD has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him.
