1“The Levitical priests - the entire tribe of Levi - shall have no allotment nor inheritance with Israel; they shall eat the offerings of the LORD made by fire, for that is their inheritance. 2They shall have no inheritance of their own among their brethren; the LORD is their inheritance, as He has said to them. 3And this shall be the priest's share from the people, from those that offer a sacrifice, whether it is an ox or sheep; and they shall give to the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the stomach. 4The first fruit also of your grain, wine, oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep, you shall give to the Levite priests. 5For the LORD your God has chosen Levi and his sons, out of all your tribes, to stand to minister in the name of the LORD, forever.

6“And if a Levite moves from any of your towns in all Israel, where he sojourned, and comes in all earnestness to the place which the LORD shall choose; 7Then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as all his fellow Levites do, who stand there before the LORD. 8They shall have like portions to eat, beside what comes from the sale of his family possessions.

9“When you enter the land which the LORD your God gives you, you must not learn to imitate the abominations of those nations. 10There must not be found among you anyone that makes his son or daughter pass through the fire, uses divination, or is an observer of omens, an enchanter, a witch, 11Or a charmer, a consulter with familiar spirits, a wizard, or a necromancer. 12For all that do these things are an abomination to the LORD; and it is because of these detestable practices that the LORD your God will drive them out from before you. 13You shall be blameless before the LORD your God. 14For these nations that you shall dispossess, listened to those observers of times, and diviners: but the LORD your God has not permitted you to do so. 15The LORD your God will raise up for you a Prophet (Christ) like me (Moses) from among you, of your brethren; to Him you must listen, 16For this is what you asked the LORD your God for in Horeb in the day of the assembly, when you said, ‘Let us not hear again the voice of the LORD our God, nor let us see this great fire anymore, so that we do not die.’ 17And the LORD said to me, ‘What they have said is right. 18I will raise up for them a Prophet from among their fellow Israelites, like you, and will put My words in His mouth; and He shall speak to them all that I shall command Him. 19And whoever will not listen to My words which He shall speak in My name, I will require it of him. 20But the prophet, who shall presume to speak a word in My name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, that (false) prophet shall die.’ 21And if you ask yourself, ‘How shall we know whether it is the word which the LORD has spoken, or not?’ 22If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not prove true, or come to pass, that is something which the LORD has not spoken, but that prophet has spoken it presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him.
