  4. You are to follow ADONAI your God, fear him, obey his mitzvot, listen to what he says, serve him and cling to him;

  5. and that prophet or dreamer is to be put to death; because he urged rebellion against ADONAI your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you from a life of slavery; in order to seduce you away from the path ADONAI your God ordered you to follow. This is how you are to rid your community of this wickedness.
