NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ »‘I will raise up a prophet from among their countrymen like you. I will put my words in his mouth. He will speak to them all that I command him. ¹⁹ »‘Whoever refuses to listen to the words that the prophet speaks in my name will answer to me. ²⁰ »‘Any prophet who dares to say something in my name that I did not command him to say or who speaks in the name of other gods must die. ²¹ »‘»You may wonder: »How shall we recognize that Jehovah did not speak this message?« ²² »If a prophet speaks in Jehovah’s name and what he says does not happen or come true, then it did not come from Jehovah. That prophet has spoken on his own authority. Never be afraid of him.’
