Bible. Deuteronomy
05:017:020 That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that
he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or
to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his
kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel.
05:018:001 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.
05:018:002 Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their brethren:
the LORD is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.
05:018:003 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.
05:018:004 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.
05:018:005 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.
05:018:006 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;
05:018:007 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.
05:018:008 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which cometh
of the sale of his patrimony.
05:018:009 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.
05:018:010 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.
05:018:011 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a
wizard, or a necromancer.
05:018:012 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.
05:018:013 Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.
05:018:014 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.
05:018:015 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;
