13:1 If there arise 6965 8799 among 7130 you a prophet 5030, or a dreamer 2492 8802 of dreams 2472, and giveth 5414 8804 thee a sign 226 or a wonder 4159,

13:2 And the sign 226 or the wonder 4159 come to pass 935 8804, whereof he spake 1696 8765 unto thee, saying 559 8800, Let us go 3212 8799 after 310 other 312 gods 430, which thou hast not known 3045 8804, and let us serve 5647 8714 them;

13:3 Thou shalt not hearken 8085 8799 unto the words 1697 of that prophet 5030, or that dreamer 2492 8802 of dreams 2472: for the LORD 3068 your God 430 proveth 5254 8764 you, to know 3045 8800 whether ye 3426 love 157 8802 the LORD 3068 your God 430 with all your heart 3824 and with all your soul 5315.

13:4 Ye shall walk 3212 8799 after 310 the LORD 3068 your God 430, and fear 3372 8799 him, and keep 8104 8799 his commandments 4687, and obey 8085 8799 his voice 6963, and ye shall serve 5647 8799 him, and cleave 1692 8799 unto him.

13:5 And that prophet 5030, or that dreamer 2492 8802 of dreams 2472, shall be put to death 4191 8714; because he hath spoken 1696 8765 to turn 5627 [you] away from the LORD 3068 your God 430, which brought you out 3318 8688 of the land 776 of Egypt 4714, and redeemed 6299 8802 you out of the house 1004 of bondage 5650, to thrust 5080 8687 thee out of the way 1870 which the LORD 3068 thy God 430 commanded 6680 8765 thee to walk in 3212 8800. So shalt thou put 1197 0 the evil 7451 away 1197 8765 from the midst 7130 of thee.(to turn…: Heb. revolt against the LORD)

13:6 If thy brother 251, the son 1121 of thy mother 517, or thy son 1121, or thy daughter 1323, or the wife 802 of thy bosom 2436, or thy friend 7453, which [is] as thine own soul 5315, entice 5496 8686 thee secretly 5643, saying 559 8800, Let us go 3212 8799 and serve 5647 8799 other 312 gods 430, which thou hast not known 3045 8804, thou, nor thy fathers 1;

13:7 [Namely], of the gods 430 of the people 5971 which [are] round about 5439 you, nigh 7138 unto thee, or far off 7350 from thee, from the [one] end 7097 of the earth 776 even unto the [other] end 7097 of the earth 776;

13:8 Thou shalt not consent 14 8799 unto him, nor hearken 8085 8799 unto him; neither shall thine eye 5869 pity 2347 8799 him, neither shalt thou spare 2550 8799, neither shalt thou conceal 3680 8762 him:

13:9 But thou shalt surely 2026 8800 kill 2026 8799 him; thine hand 3027 shall be first 7223 upon him to put him to death 4191 8687, and afterwards 314 the hand 3027 of all the people 5971.

13:10 And thou shalt stone 5619 8804 him with stones 68, that he die 4191 8804; because he hath sought 1245 8765 to thrust thee away 5080 8687 from the LORD 3068 thy God 430, which brought thee out 3318 8688 of the land 776 of Egypt 4714, from the house 1004 of bondage 5650.(bondage: Heb. bondmen)

13:11 And all Israel 3478 shall hear 8085 8799, and fear 3372 8799, and shall do 6213 8800 no more 3254 8686 any 1697 such wickedness 7451 as this is among 7130 you.

13:12 If thou shalt hear 8085 8799 [say] in one 259 of thy cities 5892, which the LORD 3068 thy God 430 hath given 5414 8802 thee to dwell 3427 8800 there, saying 559 8800,

13:13 [Certain] men 582, the children 1121 of Belial 1100, are gone out 3318 8804 from among 7130 you, and have withdrawn 5080 8686 the inhabitants 3427 8802 of their city 5892, saying 559 8800, Let us go 3212 8799 and serve 5647 8799 other 312 gods 430, which ye have not known 3045 8804;(the children…: or, naughty men)

13:14 Then shalt thou enquire 1875 8804, and make search 2713 8804, and ask 7592 8804 diligently 3190 8687; and, behold, [if it be] truth 571, [and] the thing 1697 certain 3559 8737, [that] such 2063 abomination 8441 is wrought 6213 8738 among 7130 you;

13:15 Thou shalt surely 5221 8687 smite 5221 8686 the inhabitants 3427 8802 of that city 5892 with the edge 6310 of the sword 2719, destroying it utterly 2763 8685, and all that [is] therein, and the cattle 929 thereof, with the edge 6310 of the sword 2719.

13:16 And thou shalt gather 6908 8799 all the spoil 7998 of it into the midst 8432 of the street 7339 thereof, and shalt burn 8313 8804 with fire 784 the city 5892, and all the spoil 7998 thereof every whit 3632, for the LORD 3068 thy God 430: and it shall be an heap 8510 for ever 5769; it shall not be built again 1129 8735.

13:17 And there shall cleave 1692 8799 nought 3972 of the cursed thing 2764 to thine hand 3027: that the LORD 3068 may turn 7725 8799 from the fierceness 2740 of his anger 639, and shew 5414 8804 thee mercy 7356, and have compassion 7355 8765 upon thee, and multiply 7235 8689 thee, as he hath sworn 7650 8738 unto thy fathers 1;(cursed: or, devoted)

13:18 When thou shalt hearken 8085 8799 to the voice 6963 of the LORD 3068 thy God 430, to keep 8104 8800 all his commandments 4687 which I command 6680 8764 thee this day 3117, to do 6213 8800 [that which is] right 3477 in the eyes 5869 of the LORD 3068 thy God 430.
