Deuteronomy 18:19-21
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
19 Anyone who does not heed the words that the prophet[a] 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?”
