15 “aThe Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your 1countrymen, you shall listen to him.

16 “This is aaccording to all that you asked of the Lord your God in Horeb on the day of the assembly, saying, ‘Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, let me not see this great fire anymore, or I will die.’

17 “aThe Lord said to me, ‘They have 1spoken well.

18 ‘I will raise up a prophet from among their 1countrymen like you, and aI will put My words in his mouth, and bhe shall speak to them all that I command him.

19 ‘aIt shall come about that whoever will not listen to My words which he shall speak in My name, I Myself will require it of him.

20 ‘But the prophet who speaks a word apresumptuously in My name which I have not commanded him to speak, or bwhich he speaks in the name of other gods, 1that prophet shall die.’
