¶ The .xviij. Chapter.
¶ The Leuites had no possessy&obar;s. Idolatrye must
be fled. The prophet Christ is promised. The false
prophet must be slayne, ∧ how he may be knowen.
A The Preastes the, Leuites, and all
the trybe of Leuy note must haue no
parte nor enheritaunce wyth Israel:
but shall eate the offringes of
the Lorde, and hys enheritaunce:
Therfore shall they haue no enheritaunce amonge
their brethren: But the Lorde, he is
their enherita&ubar;ce, as he hath sayde vnto th&ebar;. noteAnd this is the Preastes dutie of the people,
and of them that offer, whether it be oxe or
shepe: They must geue vnto the Preaste, the
shoulder, and the two chekes, and the mawe
the fyrst frutes also of thy corne, wyne and
oyle, and the fyrst of þe; woll of thy shepe shalt
thou geue hym: note For the Lorde thy God
hath chosen hym out of all thy trybes, to st&abar;de
and to ministre in the name of the Lorde:
he and hys sonnes for euer.
B If a Leuite come
out of any of thy cyties of all Israel, wher
he is a soiourner, and come wythall the lust
of hys herte vnto the place whych the Lorde
hath chosen: he shall mynistre in the name of
the Lorde hys God, as hys other brethr&ebar; the
Leuites do, whych remayne there before the
Lorde. And they shall haue lyke porcyons to
eate, besyde that whych commeth to hym of
the patrimonye of hys elders.
noteWhen thou arte come into þe; l&abar;de whych
the Lorde thy God geueth the, se that thou
lerne not to do after þe; abhominaci&obar;s of those
nacions. Let ther not be founde amonge you
any one, that maketh hys sonne or daughter
to go thorowe the fyre, or that vseth wytchcrafte,
or a choser out of dayes note or that regardeth
the flyenge of foules, or a sorcerar,
or a charmar, or that counceleth wyth spretes,
or a sothsayer, or that asketh (the trueth)
at th&ebar; that be deed.
C For all that do soch thynges
are abhominacyon vnto the Lorde: and
because of these abhominacyons the Lorde
thy God doeth cast th&ebar; out before the. Thou
shalt be perfecte therfore (∧ wythout blemyshe)
in the syght of the Lorde thy God. For these
nacyons whych thou shalt conquere, herken
vnto chosers oute of dayes, and vnto sorcerers:
But the Lord thy God hath not suffred
the so to do.
The Lorde thy God wyll note styr vp vnto
the a Prophete amonge you: euen of thy
brethren, lyke vnto me note vnto hym ye shall
herk&ebar;, accordynge to all that thou desyredest
of the Lorde thy God in Horeb, in the daye
of the gatherynge together, whan thou saydest: note
Let me heare the voyce of my Lorde
God no moare, nor se thys greate fyre any
moare, that I dye not.
D And the Lorde sayde
vnto me: they haue well spoken: I will rayse
them vp a prophete from amonge their brethren
lyke vnto the, and wyll put my wordes
in hys mouthe, and he shall speake vnto
them all that I shall commaunde hym. And
whosoeuer will not herken vnto the wordes
which he shall speake in my name, I wyll requyre
it of hym.
noteBut the prophete which shall presume
to speake a worde in my name, whych I haue
not commaunded hym to speake, or that
speaketh in the name of straunge goddes, the
same prophete shall dye. And yf thou saye in
thyne hert: howe shall we knowe the worde
whych the Lorde hath not spoken? (Thys
token shalt thou haue.) Eu&ebar; wh&ebar; a prophete speaketh
in the name of the Lord, &rhand; yf þe; thynge
folowe not nor come to passe, that is the
thynge whiche þe; Lord hath not spoken. But
the prophete hath spoken it presumptuously:
Thou shalt not therfore be afrayed of him.
