Chap. XVIII.
In steed of other inheritance Priestes and Leuites haue prouision by Sacrifices
and oblations. 9. Al superstition to be auoided. 15. Perpetuitie of prophetes,
and finally one special Prophet (towit, Christ) is
promised. 20. False prophetes must be slaine.
1 The priestes and Leuites, and al that are of the same
tribe, shal haue no part nor inheritance with the rest of
Israel, because they shal eate the sacrifices of our Lord, and
his oblations,
2 and nothing els shal they receiue of the
possession of their brethren: for our Lord him selfe is their
inheritance, as he hath spoken to them.
3 This shal be the
right of the priestes from the people, and from them that
offer victimes: whether they immolate oxe, or sheepe, they
shal geue to the priest the shoulder and the mawe:
4 the first
fruites of corne, of wine, and oile, and a part of the woolle of
their sheepe shearing.
5 For him hath our Lord chosen of
al thy tribes, that he might stand, and minister to our Lord
he and his sonnes for euer.
6 If a Leuite goe out of one of
thy cities of al Israel in the which he dwelleth, and would
come desiring the place which our Lord shal choose,
7 he
shal minister in the name of our Lord his God, as al his brethren
the Leuites, that shal stand at that time before our
Lord.
8 He shal receiue the same portion of meates, that
the rest doe: beside that, which in his owne citie is dew to
him by succession from his fathers.
9 When thou art entred
the Land, which our Lord thy God shal geue thee, beware
-- --
True and false Prophetes.
thou be not willing to imitate the abominations of those
nations.
10 Neither let there be found in thee any that shal
expiate his sonne, or daughter, making them to passe through
the fyre: or that demandeth of southsayers, and obserueth
dreames and diuinations, neither let there be a sorcerer,
11 nor
inchanter, nor that consulteth with pithone, or diuiners,
and seeketh the truth of the dead.
12 for al these thinges our
Lord abhorreth, and for these abominations wil he destroy
them at thy entring in.
13 thou shalt be perfect, and without
spotte with our Lord thy God.
14 These nations, whose land
thou shalt possesse, heare southsayers and diuiners: but thou
art otherwise instructed of our Lord thy God.
15 09Q0165A prophet
of thy nation and of thy brethren like vnto me, wil
our Lord thy God raise vp to thee: him thou shalt heare,
16 as
thou didst request of our Lord thy God in Horeb, when the
assemblie was gathered, and saidst: I wil no more heare the
voice of our Lord my God, and this exceding great fire I wil
see no more, lest I die.
17 And our Lord said to mie; They
haue spoken al thinges wel.
18 A prophete wil I rayse vp to
them out of the middes of their brethren like to thee: and
I wil put my wordes in his mouth, and he shal speake al
thinges that I shal command him.
19 but he that wil not heare
his wordes, which he shal speake in my name, I wil be the
reuenger.
20 And the prophet that being depraued with arrogancie
wil speake in my name, the thinges note that I did not
command him to say, note or in the name of strange goddes,
shal be slaine.
21 And if in secrete cogitation thou answer:
How shal I vnderstand the word, that our Lord spake not?
22 This signe thou shalt haue: That which the same prophete
foretelleth, in the name of the Lord and cometh not to passe:
that our Lord hath not spoken, but by the arrogancie of
his minde the prophet hath forged it: and therfore thou
shalt not feare him.
