9.「你到了耶和華你 神所賜之地,那些國民所行可憎惡的事,你不可學著行。
When you enter the land the LORD your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there.
10.你們中間不可有人使兒女經火,也不可有占卜的、觀兆的、用法術的、行邪術的、
Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery,interprets omens, engages in witchcraft,
11.用迷術的、交鬼的、行巫術的、過陰的。
or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.
12.凡行這些事的都為耶和華所憎惡;因那些國民行這可憎惡的事,所以耶和華你的 神將他們從你面前趕出。
Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD; because of these same detestable practices the LORD your God will drive out those nations before you.
13.你要在耶和華你的 神面前做完全人。
You must be blameless before the LORD your God.
The Prophet
14.因你所要趕出的那些國民都聽信觀兆的和占卜的,至於你,耶和華你的 神從來不許你這樣行。
The nations you will dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery or divination. But as for you, the LORD your God has not permitted you to do so.
