Deuteronomy 18:13

IntegrityObedience

11 casts spells, consults a medium or spiritist, or inquires of the dead.

12 For whoever does these things is detestable to the LORD. And because of these detestable things, the LORD your God is driving out the nations before you.

You must be blameless before the LORD your God.

14 Though these nations, which you will dispossess, listen to conjurers and diviners, 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 your brothers. You must listen to him.
