Deuteronomy 18:10-14
New International Version
10 Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire,(A) who practices divination(B) or sorcery,(C) interprets omens, engages in witchcraft,(D) 11 or casts spells,(E) or who is a medium or spiritist(F) or who consults the dead. 12 Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you.(G) 13 You must be blameless(H) before the Lord your God.(I)
The Prophet
14 The nations you will dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery or divination.(J) But as for you, the Lord your God has not permitted you to do so.
Deuteronomy 18:10-14
King James Version
10 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.
11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
12 For all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord: and because of these abominations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
13 Thou shalt be perfect with the Lord thy God.
14 For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the Lord thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.
