Abominable Practices (DEU 18:9-14)

[18:9] “When you come into the land that the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of those nations.

[18:10] There shall not be found among you anyone who burns his son or his daughter as an offering, anyone who practices divination or tells fortunes or interprets omens, or a sorcerer

[18:11] or a charmer or a medium or a necromancer or one who inquires of the dead,

[18:12] for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord. And because of these abominations the Lord your God is driving them out before you.

[18:13] You shall be blameless before the Lord your God,

[18:14] for these nations, which you are about to dispossess, listen to fortune-tellers and to diviners. But as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you to do this.
