27 “A man or a woman who is a ^bmedium or a necromancer shall surely be put to death. They shall be stoned with stones; their blood shall be upon them.”

31 “Do not turn to ^tmediums or necromancers; do not seek them out, and so make yourselves unclean by them: I am the Lord your God.

6 “If a person turns to ^emediums and necromancers, whoring after them, I will set my face against that person and will cut him off from among his people.

18 ^y“You shall not permit a sorceress to live.

10 There shall not be found among you anyone who ^jburns his son or his daughter as an offering,¹ anyone who ^kpractices divination or ^ltells fortunes or interprets omens, or a ^msorcerer 11 or a charmer or a ⁿmedium or a necromancer or one who inquires of the dead, 12 for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord. And ^obecause of these abominations the Lord your God is driving them out before you.

Provision for Priests and Levites

1 “The Levitical priests, all the tribe of Levi, shall have ^dno portion or inheritance with Israel. They shall eat the Lord’s food offerings¹ as their² inheritance.

7 Then Saul said to his servants, “Seek out for me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her.” And his servants said to him, “Behold, there is a medium at En-dor.”

8 So Saul disguised himself and put on other garments and went, he and two men with him. And they came to the woman by night. And he said, “Divine for me by a spirit and bring up for me whomever I shall name to you.” 9 The woman said to him, “Surely you know what Saul has done, how he has cut off the mediums and the necromancers from the land. Why then are you laying a trap for my life to bring about my death?”
