אַל־תִּפְנ֤וּ אֶל־הָאֹבֹת֙ וְאֶל־הַיִּדְּעֹנִ֔ים אַל־תְּבַקְשׁ֖וּ לְטָמְאָ֣ה בָהֶ֑ם אֲנִ֖י יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵיכֶֽם׃
Huwag kayong babaling sa mga tumatawag sa espiritu ng mga patay, ni sa mga manghuhulang gumagamit ng mahika; huwag ninyo silang hahanapin, sapagkat magiging marumi kayo dahil sa kanila. Ako ang Walang-Hanggan na inyong Diyos.
