Deuteronomy 18:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 And whosoever will not hearken unto my words, which he shall speak in my Name, I will [a]require it of him.
20 But the Prophet that shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that speaketh in the name of other gods, even the same Prophet shall die.
21 And if thou think in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord hath not spoken?
