Deuteronomy 18:8-11
Contemporary English Version
8 Some Levites may have money from selling family possessions, and others may not. But all Levites serving at the place of worship will receive the same amount of food from the sacrifices and gifts brought by the people.
Don't Do Disgusting Things
Moses said to Israel:
9 Soon you will go into the land that the Lord your God is giving you. The nations that live there do things that are disgusting to the Lord, and you must not follow their example. 10-11 (A) Don't sacrifice your son or daughter. And don't try to use any kind of magic or witchcraft to tell fortunes[a] or to cast spells or to talk with spirits of the dead.
