Deuteronomy 18:14-18

Portion for the Levites

¹⁴For these nations, which you are going to dispossess, listen to soothsayers and diviners, but as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you to do so.

¹⁵“The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your countrymen; to him you shall listen. ¹⁶This is in accordance with everything that you asked of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly, saying, ‘Do not let me hear the voice of the Lord my God again, and do not let me see this great fire anymore, or I will die!’ ¹⁷And the Lord said to me, ‘They have spoken well. ¹⁸I will raise up for them a prophet from among their countrymen like you, and I will put My words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them everything that I command him.
