Deuteronomy 18:15-19
Lexham English Bible
15 “Yahweh your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your midst, from your countrymen,[a] and to him you shall listen. 16 This is according to all that you asked[b] from Yahweh your God at Horeb, on the day of the assembly, saying,[c] ‘I do not want again to hear[d] the voice of Yahweh my God, and I do not want to see again this great fire, so that I may not die!’ 17 And Yahweh said to me, ‘They are right in what they have said. 18 I will raise up a prophet for them from among their countrymen[e] like you, and I will place[f] my words into his mouth, and he shall speak to them everything that I command him.[g] 19 And then[h] the man that will not listen to my words that he shall speak in my name, I will hold accountable.
