Bible verse
Then the LORD said to me, “They have spoken well.
Deuteronomy 18:17 · BSB
The verses around it, from Deuteronomy 18.
13 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.
16 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 or see this great fire anymore, so that we will not die!”
17 Then the LORD said to me, “They have spoken well.
18 I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. I will put My words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him.
19 And I will hold accountable anyone who does not listen to My words that the prophet speaks in My name.
20 But if any prophet dares to speak a message in My name that I have not commanded him to speak, or to speak in the name of other gods, that prophet must be put to death.”
21 You may ask in your heart, “How can we recognize a message that the LORD has not spoken?”
