< Deuteronomy 13 >

1 “Possibly there will be people among you who [say that they] are prophets. They may say that they are able to interpret the meaning of dreams or perform various kinds of miracles [DOU].
If he will arise in midst your a prophet or a dreamer of a dream and he will give to you a sign or a wonder.
2 They will say those things in order to induce/persuade you to worship gods that you have never known about before. But even if what they predict happens,
And it will come the sign and the wonder which he spoke to you saying let us walk after gods other which not you have known them and let us be enticed to serve them.
3 do not pay attention to what they say. Yahweh our God will be testing you to find out if you love him with all your inner being.
Not you will listen to [the] words of the prophet that or to [the] dreamer of the dream that for [is] putting to [the] test Yahweh God your you to know ¿ [are] there you loving Yahweh God your with all heart your and with all being your.
4 You must conduct your lives as Yahweh our God wants you to, and you must revere him, and do what he tells you to do [MTY], and worship only him, and (be faithful to/have a close relationship with) him.
After Yahweh God your you will walk and him you will fear and commandments his you will keep and to voice his you will listen and him you will serve and to him you will cleave!
5 “But you must execute anyone who [falsely says that he] is a prophet, or someone who [falsely] says that he can interpret dreams, or who tells you to rebel against Yahweh our God, who rescued your ancestors from being slaves in Egypt. People like that are only wanting to cause you to stop conducting your lives as Yahweh has commanded you to do. Execute them, to get rid of this evil among you.
And the prophet that or [the] dreamer of the dream that he will be put to death for he has spoken rebellion on Yahweh God your who brought out you - from [the] land of Egypt and who redeemed you from a house of slaves to thrust aside you from the way which he has commanded you Yahweh God your to walk in it and you will remove the evil from midst your.
6 It does not matter if even your brother or your daughter or your wife or some close/dear friend secretly urges you, saying ‘Let’s worship other gods. They are gods which you or your ancestors have never known about.
If he will entice you brother your [the] son of mother your or son your or daughter your or - [the] wife of bosom your or friend your who [is] like self your in secrecy saying let us go and let us serve gods other which not you have known you and ancestors your.
7 Some of them may encourage you to worship gods that people-groups that live near you worship, or gods that groups who live far away worship.
Any of [the] gods of the peoples which [are] around you near to you or distant from you from [the] end of the earth and to [the] end of the earth.
8 Do not [SYN] do what they suggest. Do not even listen to them. Do not even be merciful to them, and do not keep secret what they have done.
Not you will yield to him and not you will listen to him and not it will look with pity eye your on him and not you will spare [him] and not you will cover over him.
9 Execute them! You [who are their relative] must be the first one to [throw stones at them to] kill them, and then let everyone else [MTY] throw stones at them, too.
For certainly you will kill him hand your it will be on him at the first to put to death him and [the] hand of all the people at the last.
10 Kill such people by throwing stones at them, because they are trying to cause you to stop worshiping Yahweh our God, who rescued your ancestors from being slaves in Egypt.
And you will stone him with stones and he will die for he sought to thrust aside you from with Yahweh God your who brought out you from [the] land of Egypt from a house of slaves.
11 When they are executed, all the Israeli people will hear [what happened], and they will become afraid, and none of them will do such an evil thing again.
And all Israel they will hear and they will fear! and not they will repeat to do like the thing evil this in midst your.
12 “When you are living in one of the towns in the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you, you may hear
If you will hear in one of cities your which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you to dwell there saying.
13 that some worthless people there among you [IDM] are deceiving the people of their town, saying, ‘Let’s go and worship other gods,’ but they are gods that you have never heard about before.
They have gone out men sons of worthlessness from midst your and they have thrust aside [the] inhabitants of city their saying let us go and let us serve gods other which not you have known.
14 Investigate it thoroughly/carefully. If [you find out that] it is true that such a disgraceful thing has happened,
And you will investigate and you will search and you will enquire thoroughly and there! truth [is] certain the matter it has been done the abomination this in midst your.
15 kill all the people in that town. And kill all their livestock, too. Destroy the town completely.
Certainly you will strike [the] inhabitants of the city (that *Qk) to [the] mouth of [the] sword totally destroy it and all who [are] in it and livestock its to [the] mouth of [the] sword.
16 Gather all the possessions that belonged to the people who lived there and pile them up in the city plaza. Then burn the town and everything in it, as though it were an offering to Yahweh that would be completely burned [on the altar]. The ruins/ashes must stay there forever; the town must never be rebuilt.
And all plunder its you will gather into [the] middle of open place its and you will burn with fire the city and all plunder its a whole offering to Yahweh God your and it will be a mound of perpetuity not it will be built again.
17 None of you Israelis must take for yourselves [IDM] anything that Yahweh has said must be destroyed. But if you do what I say, Yahweh will stop being angry with you, and he will act mercifully toward you. And he will cause you to have many children/descendants, which is what he promised our ancestors that he would do.
And not it will cling to hand your anything of the object[s] for destruction so that he may turn Yahweh from [the] burning of anger his and he will give to you compassion and he will have compassion on you and he will increase you just as he swore to ancestors your.
18 Yahweh our God will do all those things if you do what he is telling you to do, and if you obey all the commandments that I am giving to you today and do what Yahweh says is right [for you to do].”
For you will listen to [the] voice of Yahweh God your to keep all commandments his which I [am] commanding you this day to do the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh God your.
