4. The first fruits of your grain, your wine, and your oil, as well as the first shearing of your flock, you shall also give him.
5. For the Lord, your God, has chosen him out of all your tribes to be in attendance to minister in the name of the Lord, him and his descendants for all time.
6. When a Levite goes from one of your communities anywhere in Israel in which he has been residing, to visit, as his heart may desire, the place which the Lord will choose,
7. and ministers there in the name of the Lord, his God, like all his fellow Levites who stand before the Lord there,
8. he shall receive the same portions to eat, along with his stipends and patrimony.
9. When you come into the land which the Lord, your God, is giving you, you shall not learn to imitate the abominations of the nations there.
10. Let there not be found among you anyone who causes their son or daughter to pass through the fire, or practices divination, or is a soothsayer, augur, or sorcerer,
11. or who casts spells, consults ghosts and spirits, or seeks oracles from the dead.
12. Anyone who does such things is an abomination to the Lord, and because of such abominations the Lord, your God, is dispossessing them before you.
13. You must be altogether sincere with the Lord, your God.
14. Although these nations whom you are about to dispossess listen to their soothsayers and diviners, the Lord, your God, will not permit you to do so.
15. A prophet like me will the Lord, your God, raise up for you from among your own kindred; that is the one to whom you shall listen.
