13 You must have integrity ⌊in dealing⌋ with the Lord your God.
14 These nations you are forcing out listen to fortune tellers and to those who practice black magic. But the Lord your God won’t let you do anything like that.
15 The Lord your God will send you a prophet, an Israelite like me. You must listen to him.
16 This is what you asked the Lord your God to give you on the day of the assembly at Mount Horeb. You said, “We never want to hear the voice of the Lord our God or see this raging fire again. If we do, we’ll die!”
17 The Lord told me, “What they’ve said is good.
18 So I will send them a prophet, an Israelite like you. I will put my words in his mouth. He will tell them everything I command him.
19 Whoever refuses to listen to the words that prophet speaks in my name will answer to me.
