Fimmta bók Móse 13
Icelandic Bible
13 Ef spámaður eða draumamaður rís upp meðal yðar og boðar þér tákn eða undur,
2 og táknið eða undrið rætist, það er hann hafði boðað þér og sagt um leið: "Vér skulum snúa oss til annarra guða (þeirra er þú hefir eigi þekkt), og vér skulum dýrka þá!"
3 þá skalt þú ekki hlýða á orð þess spámanns eða draumamanns, því að Drottinn Guð yðar reynir yður til þess að vita, hvort þér elskið Drottin Guð yðar af öllu hjarta yðar og af allri sálu yðar.
4 Drottni Guði yðar skuluð þér fylgja og hann skuluð þér óttast, og skipanir hans skuluð þér varðveita og raustu hans skuluð þér hlýða, og hann skuluð þér dýrka og við hann skuluð þér halda yður fast.
5 En spámann þann eða draumamann skal deyða, því að hann hefir prédikað uppreisn gegn Drottni Guði yðar, sem leiddi yður út af Egyptalandi og leysti þig úr þrælahúsinu, til þess að tæla þig burt af þeim vegi, sem Drottinn Guð þinn bauð þér að ganga. Þannig skalt þú útrýma hinu illa burt frá þér.
6 Ef bróðir þinn, sonur móður þinnar, eða sonur þinn eða dóttir þín eða konan í faðmi þínum eða vinur þinn, sem þú elskar eins og lífið í brjósti þínu, ginnir þig einslega og segir: "Vér skulum fara og dýrka aðra guði," þá er hvorki þú né feður þínir hafa þekkt,
7 af guðum þeirra þjóða, sem kringum yður eru, hvort heldur þær eru nálægar þér eða fjarlægar þér, frá einu heimsskauti til annars,
8 þá skalt þú eigi gjöra að vilja hans og eigi hlýða á hann, og þú skalt ekki líta hann vægðarauga og þú skalt ekki þyrma honum né hylma yfir með honum,
9 heldur skalt þú drepa hann, þín hönd skal fyrst á lofti vera gegn honum til þess að deyða hann, og því næst hönd alls lýðsins.
10 Þú skalt lemja hann grjóti til bana, af því að hann leitaðist við að tæla þig frá Drottni Guði þínum, sem leiddi þig út af Egyptalandi, út úr þrælahúsinu.
11 Og allur Ísrael skal heyra það og skelfast, svo að enginn hafist framar að slíkt ódæði þín á meðal.
12 Ef þú heyrir sagt um einhverja af borgum þínum, þeim er Drottinn Guð þinn gefur þér til þess að búa í:
13 "Varmenni nokkur eru upp komin þín á meðal, og hafa þau tælt samborgara sína og sagt: ,Vér skulum fara og dýrka aðra guði, þá er þér þekkið ekki,"`
14 þá skalt þú rækilega rannsaka það, grennslast eftir og spyrjast fyrir, og ef það reynist satt vera, að slík svívirðing hafi framin verið þín á meðal,
15 þá skalt þú fella íbúa þeirrar borgar með sverðseggjum, bannfæra borgina og allt, sem í henni er, og fénaðinn í henni með sverðseggjum.
16 Allt herfangið úr henni skalt þú bera saman á torgið og brenna síðan borgina og allt herfangið í eldi sem eldfórn Drottni Guði þínum til handa, og hún skal verða ævarandi rúst og aldrei framar endurreist verða.
17 Og ekkert af hinu bannfærða skal loða við hendur þínar, til þess að Drottinn megi láta af hinni brennandi reiði sinni og auðsýni þér miskunnsemi, og til þess að hann miskunni þér og margfaldi þig, eins og hann sór feðrum þínum,
18 er þú hlýðir raustu Drottins Guðs þíns með því að varðveita allar skipanir hans, þær er ég legg fyrir þig í dag, og gjörir það sem rétt er í augum Drottins Guðs þíns.

Worshiping Other Gods
13 [a]If a prophet,(A) or one who foretells by dreams,(B) appears among you and announces to you a sign or wonder, 2 and if the sign(C) or wonder spoken of takes place, and the prophet says, “Let us follow other gods”(D) (gods you have not known) “and let us worship them,” 3 you must not listen to the words of that prophet(E) or dreamer.(F) The Lord your God is testing(G) you to find out whether you love(H) him with all your heart and with all your soul. 4 It is the Lord your God you must follow,(I) and him you must revere.(J) Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast(K) to him. 5 That prophet or dreamer must be put to death(L) for inciting rebellion against the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt and redeemed you from the land of slavery. That prophet or dreamer tried to turn(M) you from the way the Lord your God commanded you to follow. You must purge the evil(N) from among you.
6 If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices(O) you, saying, “Let us go and worship other gods”(P) (gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, 7 gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other), 8 do not yield(Q) to them or listen to them. Show them no pity.(R) Do not spare them or shield them. 9 You must certainly put them to death.(S) Your hand(T) must be the first in putting them to death, and then the hands of all the people. 10 Stone them to death, because they tried to turn you away(U) from the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 11 Then all Israel will hear and be afraid,(V) and no one among you will do such an evil thing again.
12 If you hear it said about one of the towns the Lord your God is giving you to live in 13 that troublemakers(W) have arisen among you and have led the people of their town astray, saying, “Let us go and worship other gods” (gods you have not known), 14 then you must inquire, probe and investigate it thoroughly.(X) And if it is true and it has been proved that this detestable thing has been done among you,(Y) 15 you must certainly put to the sword all who live in that town. You must destroy it completely,[b](Z) both its people and its livestock.(AA) 16 You are to gather all the plunder of the town into the middle of the public square and completely burn the town(AB) and all its plunder as a whole burnt offering to the Lord your God.(AC) That town is to remain a ruin(AD) forever, never to be rebuilt, 17 and none of the condemned things[c] are to be found in your hands. Then the Lord will turn from his fierce anger,(AE) will show you mercy,(AF) and will have compassion(AG) on you. He will increase your numbers,(AH) as he promised(AI) on oath to your ancestors— 18 because you obey the Lord your God by keeping all his commands that I am giving you today and doing what is right(AJ) in his eyes.

King James Version
13 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the Lord your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
4 Ye shall walk after the Lord your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the Lord thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.
6 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
7 Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth;
8 Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him:
9 But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.
10 And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to thrust thee away from the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
11 And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wickedness as this is among you.
12 If thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities, which the Lord thy God hath given thee to dwell there, saying,
13 Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known;
14 Then shalt thou enquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought among you;
15 Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword.
16 And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it into the midst of the street thereof, and shalt burn with fire the city, and all the spoil thereof every whit, for the Lord thy God: and it shall be an heap for ever; it shall not be built again.
17 And there shall cleave nought of the cursed thing to thine hand: that the Lord may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and shew thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;
18 When thou shalt hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of the Lord thy God.
