Passage: Deuteronomy 18:20-22 (RSV)


Deuteronomy 18


20But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.'
21And if you say in your heart, `How may we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?' --
22when a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the word does not come to pass or come true, that is a word which the LORD has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously, you need not be afraid of him.
