7 So the older men of Moʹab and the older men of Midʹi·an traveled with the payments for divination+ in their hands and went to Baʹlaam+ and spoke to him Baʹlak’s words.

10 There should not be found in you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire,+ anyone who employs divination,+ a practicer of magic+ or anyone who looks for omens+ or a sorcerer,+

12 For everybody doing these things is something detestable to Jehovah, and on account of these detestable things Jehovah your God is driving them away from before you.+
