Provisión para los levitas
18 Los sacerdotes levitas, toda la tribu de Leví, no tendrán porción ni heredad con el resto de Israel(A); comerán de las ofrendas encendidas al Señor y de su porción[a]. 2 Y no tendrán heredad entre sus hermanos[b]; el Señor es su heredad, como les ha prometido[c](B).
3 Y este será el derecho de los sacerdotes de parte del pueblo, de los que ofrecen como sacrificio buey u oveja: darán para el sacerdote la espaldilla, las quijadas y el cuajar(C). 4 Le darás las primicias de tu grano, de tu mosto, de tu aceite(D) y del primer esquileo de tus ovejas. 5 Porque el Señor tu Dios le ha escogido a él y a sus hijos(E) de entre todas tus tribus, para que esté allí y sirva[d] en el nombre del Señor, para siempre(F).
6 Y si un levita sale de alguna de tus ciudades[e], de cualquier parte de Israel en que resida(G), y llega con todo el deseo de su alma al lugar que el Señor escoja, 7 él ministrará en el nombre del Señor su Dios, como todos sus hermanos levitas que están allí delante del Señor. 8 Comerán porciones iguales[f](H), excepto lo que reciban de la venta de sus patrimonios(I).
Prohibición de las costumbres paganas
9 Cuando entres en la tierra que el Señor tu Dios te da, no aprenderás a hacer[g] las cosas abominables de esas naciones(J). 10 No sea hallado en ti nadie que haga pasar a su hijo o a su hija por el fuego(K), ni quien practique adivinación, ni hechicería, o sea agorero, o hechicero(L), 11 o encantador, o médium, o espiritista(M), ni quien consulte a los muertos. 12 Porque cualquiera que hace estas cosas es abominable al Señor; y por causa de estas abominaciones el Señor tu Dios expulsará a esas naciones[h] de delante de ti(N). 13 Serás intachable[i](O) delante del Señor tu Dios.
14 Porque esas naciones que vas a desalojar escuchan a los que practican hechicería y a los adivinos(P), pero a ti el Señor tu Dios no te lo ha permitido. 15 Un profeta de en medio de ti(Q), de tus hermanos, como yo, te levantará el Señor tu Dios; a él oiréis. 16 Esto es conforme a todo lo que pediste al Señor tu Dios en Horeb el día de la asamblea, diciendo: «No vuelva yo a oír la voz del Señor mi Dios, no vuelva a ver este gran fuego, no sea que muera(R)». 17 Y el Señor me dijo: «Bien han hablado[j] en lo que han dicho(S). 18 Un profeta como tú levantaré de entre sus hermanos, y pondré mis palabras en su boca(T), y él les hablará todo lo que yo le mande(U). 19 Y sucederá que a cualquiera que no oiga mis palabras que él ha de hablar en mi nombre(V), yo mismo le pediré cuenta. 20 Pero el profeta que hable con presunción en mi nombre una palabra que yo no le haya mandado hablar, o que hable en el nombre de otros dioses(W), ese[k] profeta morirá(X)». 21 Y si dices en tu corazón: «¿Cómo conoceremos la palabra que el Señor no ha hablado?». 22 Cuando un profeta hable en el nombre del Señor, si la cosa no acontece ni se cumple, esa es palabra que el Señor no ha hablado; con arrogancia la ha hablado el profeta(Y); no tendrás temor de él(Z).

Offerings for Priests and Levites
18 The Levitical(A) priests—indeed, the whole tribe of Levi—are to have no allotment or inheritance with Israel. They shall live on the food offerings(B) presented to the Lord, for that is their inheritance.(C) 2 They shall have no inheritance among their fellow Israelites; the Lord is their inheritance,(D) as he promised them.(E)
3 This is the share due the priests(F) from the people who sacrifice a bull(G) or a sheep: the shoulder, the internal organs and the meat from the head.(H) 4 You are to give them the firstfruits of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the first wool from the shearing of your sheep,(I) 5 for the Lord your God has chosen them(J) and their descendants out of all your tribes to stand and minister(K) in the Lord’s name always.(L)
6 If a Levite moves from one of your towns anywhere in Israel where he is living, and comes in all earnestness to the place the Lord will choose,(M) 7 he may minister in the name(N) of the Lord his God like all his fellow Levites who serve there in the presence of the Lord. 8 He is to share equally in their benefits, even though he has received money from the sale of family possessions.(O)
Occult Practices
9 When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate(P) the detestable ways(Q) of the nations there. 10 Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire,(R) who practices divination(S) or sorcery,(T) interprets omens, engages in witchcraft,(U) 11 or casts spells,(V) or who is a medium or spiritist(W) or who consults the dead. 12 Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you.(X) 13 You must be blameless(Y) before the Lord your God.(Z)
The Prophet
14 The nations you will dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery or divination.(AA) But as for you, the Lord your God has not permitted you to do so. 15 The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your fellow Israelites.(AB) You must listen to him. 16 For this is what you asked of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly when you said, “Let us not hear the voice of the Lord our God nor see this great fire anymore, or we will die.”(AC)
17 The Lord said to me: “What they say is good. 18 I will raise up for them a prophet(AD) like you from among their fellow Israelites, and I will put my words(AE) in his mouth.(AF) He will tell them everything I command him.(AG) 19 I myself will call to account(AH) anyone who does not listen(AI) to my words that the prophet speaks in my name.(AJ) 20 But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods,(AK) is to be put to death.”(AL)
21 You may say to yourselves, “How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord?” 22 If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true,(AM) that is a message the Lord has not spoken.(AN) That prophet has spoken presumptuously,(AO) so do not be alarmed.
Deuteronomy 18
King James Version
Deuteronomy 18
King James Version
18 The priests the Levites, and all the tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and his inheritance.
2 Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their brethren: the Lord is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.
3 And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them that offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep; and they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
4 The firstfruit also of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy sheep, shalt thou give him.
5 For the Lord thy God hath chosen him out of all thy tribes, to stand to minister in the name of the Lord, him and his sons for ever.
6 And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his mind unto the place which the Lord shall choose;
7 Then he shall minister in the name of the Lord his God, as all his brethren the Levites do, which stand there before the Lord.
8 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which cometh of the sale of his patrimony.
9 When thou art come into the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
10 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.
11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
12 For all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord: and because of these abominations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
13 Thou shalt be perfect with the Lord thy God.
14 For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the Lord thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.
15 The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;
16 According to all that thou desiredst of the Lord thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.
17 And the Lord said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.
18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
21 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord hath not spoken?
22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
