The False Prophet

13 “If a prophet or someone who has dreams(A) arises among you and proclaims a sign or wonder to you, and that sign or wonder he has promised you comes about, but he says, ‘Let’s follow other gods,’ which you have not known, ‘and let’s worship them,’ do not listen to that prophet’s words or to that dreamer. For the Lord your God is testing you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul.(B) You must follow the Lord your God and fear him. You must keep his commands and listen to him; you must worship him and remain faithful[a] to him.(C) That prophet or dreamer must be put to death,(D) because he has urged rebellion against the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the place of slavery,(E) to turn you from the way the Lord your God has commanded you to walk. You must purge the evil from you.(F)
