9. When you come to the land that the Lord your God is giving you, never learn the disgusting practices of those nations.

10. You must never sacrifice your sons or daughters by burning them alive, practice black magic, be a fortune teller, witch, or sorcerer,

11. cast spells, ask ghosts or spirits for help, or consult the dead.

12. Whoever does these things is disgusting to the Lord. The Lord your God is forcing these nations out of your way because of their disgusting practices.

13. You must have integrity ⌊in dealing⌋ with the Lord your God.

14. These nations you are forcing out listen to fortune tellers and to those who practice black magic. But the Lord your God won’t let you do anything like that.
