13"If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder,H6965H7130H5030H2492H2472H5414H226H4159 2and the sign or the wonder comes true, concerning which he spoke to you, saying, 'Let us go after other gods (whom you have not known) and let us serve them,'H226H4159H935H1696H559H3212H310H312H430H3045H5647 3you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams; for the LORD your God is testing you to find out if you love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.H8085H1697H5030H2492H2472H3068H430H5254H3045H3426H157H3068H430H3824H5315 4"You shall follow the LORD your God and fear Him; and you shall keep His commandments, listen to His voice, serve Him, and cling to Him.H3212H310H3068H430H3372H8104H4687H8085H6963H5647H1692 5"But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has counseled rebellion against the LORD your God who brought you from the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of slavery, to seduce you from the way in which the LORD your God commanded you to walk. So you shall purge the evil from among you.H5030H2492H2472H4191H1696H5627H3068H430H3318H776H4714H6299H1004H5650H5080H1870H3068H430H6680H3212H1197H7451H1197H7130 6"If your brother, your mother's son, or your son or daughter, or the wife you cherish, or your friend who is as your own soul, entice you secretly, saying, 'Let us go and serve other gods' (whom neither you nor your fathers have known,H251H1121H517H1121H1323H802H2436H7453H5315H5496H5643H559H3212H5647H312H430H3045H1 7of the gods of the peoples who are around you, near you or far from you, from one end of the earth to the other end),H430H5971H5439H7138H7350H7097H776H7097H776 8you shall not yield to him or listen to him; and your eye shall not pity him, nor shall you spare or conceal him.H14H8085H5869H2347H2550H3680 9"But you shall surely kill him; your hand shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.H2026H2026H3027H7223H4191H314H3027H5971 10"So you shall stone him to death because he has sought to seduce you from the LORD your God who brought you out from the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.H5619H68H4191H1245H5080H3068H430H3318H776H4714H1004H5650 11"Then all Israel will hear and be afraid, and will never again do such a wicked thing among you.H3478H8085H3372H6213H3254H1697H7451H7130 12"If you hear in one of your cities, which the LORD your God is giving you to live in, [anyone] saying [that]H8085H259H5892H3068H430H5414H3427H559 13some worthless men have gone out from among you and have seduced the inhabitants of their city, saying, 'Let us go and serve other gods' (whom you have not known),H582H1121H1100H3318H7130H5080H3427H5892H559H3212H5647H312H430H3045 14then you shall investigate and search out and inquire thoroughly. And if it is true [and] the matter established that this abomination has been done among you,H1875H2713H7592H3190H571H1697H3559H2063H8441H6213H7130 15you shall surely strike the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying it and all that is in it and its cattle with the edge of the sword.H5221H5221H3427H5892H6310H2719H2763H929H6310H2719 16"Then you shall gather all its booty into the middle of its open square and burn the city and all its booty with fire as a whole burnt offering to the LORD your God; and it shall be a ruin forever. It shall never be rebuilt.H6908H7998H8432H7339H8313H784H5892H7998H3632H3068H430H8510H5769H1129 17"And nothing from that which is put under the ban shall cling to your hand, in order that the LORD may turn from His burning anger and show mercy to you, and have compassion on you and make you increase, just as He has sworn to your fathers,H1692H3972H2764H3027H3068H7725H2740H639H5414H7356H7355H7235H7650H1 18if you will listen to the voice of the LORD your God, keeping all His commandments which I am commanding you today, and doing what is right in the sight of the LORD your God.H8085H6963H3068H430H8104H4687H6680H3117H6213H3477H5869H3068H430
