11 According to the Law, which they shall teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, shalt [a]thou do: thou shalt not decline from the thing which they shalt show thee, neither to the right hand, nor the left.

12 And that man that will do presumptuously, not hearkening unto the Priest (that standeth before the Lord thy God to [b]minister there) or unto the Judge, that man shall die, and thou shalt take away evil from Israel.

13 So all the people shall hear and fear, and do no more presumptuously.
