Lev 19:26 Thou shall not eat anything with the blood, nor
shall you practice divination or soothsaying.
Lev 19:31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither
seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your
God.
Lev 20:6 And the soul that turneth after such as have
familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after
them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut
him off from among his people.
Deu 18:10-12 There shall not be found among you any one that
maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or
that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an
enchanter, or a witch, {11} Or a charmer, or a consulter with
familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. {12} For all
that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD.
Exo 7:10-12 And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and
they did so as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his
rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a
serpent. {11} Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the
sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like
manner with their enchantments. {12} For they cast down every
man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod
swallowed up their rods.
Exo 8:6-7 And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of
Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
{7} And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and
brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
Exo 8:17-19 Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and
smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice in man, and in
beast; all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the
land of Egypt. {18} And the magicians did so with their
enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there
were lice upon man, and upon beast. {19} Then the magicians
said unto Pharaoh, This is the finger of God.
Exo 9:8-11 And the LORD said unto Moses and unto Aaron, Take
to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle
it toward the heaven in the sight of Pharaoh. {9} And it shall
become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil
breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast, throughout
all the land of Egypt. {10} And they took ashes of the furnace,
and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward
heaven; and it became a boil breaking forth with blains upon
man, and upon beast. {11} And the magicians could not stand
before Moses because of the boils; for the boil was upon the
magicians, and upon all the Egyptians.
Exo 22:18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
Josh 13:22 Balaam also the son of Beor, the soothsayer, did
the children of Israel slay with the sword among them that were
slain by them.
2 Chr 33:6 And he caused his children to pass through the
fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed
times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt
with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil
in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
2 Kings 21 Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king,
and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's
name was Hephzibah. 2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord,
according to the abominations of the nations whom the Lord had
cast out before the children of Israel. 3 For he rebuilt the
high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; he raised
up altars for Baal, and made a wooden image, as Ahab king of
Israel had done; and he worshiped all the host of heaven and
served them. 4 He also built altars in the house of the Lord,
of which the Lord had said, "In Jerusalem I will put My name."
5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two
courts of the house of the Lord. 6 Also he made his son pass
through the fire, practiced soothsaying, used witchcraft, and
consulted spiritists and mediums. He did much evil in the sight
of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger. 7 He even set a carved
image of Asherah that he had made, in the house of which the
Lord had said to David and to Solomon his son, "In this house
and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes
of Israel, I will put My name forever;
Isa 2:6 Therefore thou hast forsaken thy people the house of
Jacob, because they be replenished from the east, and are
soothsayers like the Philistines, and they please themselves in
the children of strangers.
Isa 47:1 Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of
Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of
the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and
delicate. {8} Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to
pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine
heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a
widow, neither shall I know the loss of children: {9} But these
two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss
of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their
perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the
great abundance of thine enchantments. {10} For thou hast
trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy
wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast
said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me. {11}
Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from
whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt
not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee
suddenly, which thou shalt not know. {12} Stand now with thine
enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein
thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able
to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail. {13} Thou art wearied
in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the
stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save
thee from these things that shall come upon thee. {14} Behold,
they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall
not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall
not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.
Jer 27:9 Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets, nor to
your diviners, nor to your dreamers, nor to your enchanters,
nor to your sorcerers, which speak unto you, saying, Ye shall
not serve the king of Babylon: {10} For they prophesy a lie
unto you ..
Dan 1:19 And the king communed with them; and among them
all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:
therefore stood they before the king. {20} And in all matters
of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he
found them ten times better than all the magicians and
astrologers that were in all his realm. 2:1 And in the second
year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuchadnezzar dreamed
dreams, wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake
from him. {2} Then the king commanded to call the magicians,
and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, for
to show the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the
king. {3} And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream,
and my spirit was troubled to know the dream. {4} Then spake
the Chaldeans to the king in Syriack, O king, live for ever:
tell thy servants the dream, and we will show the
interpretation. {5} The king answered and said to the
Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if ye will not make known
unto me the dream, with the interpretation thereof, ye shall be
cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill. {10}
The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not
a man upon the earth that can show the king's matter: therefore
there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at
any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean. {11} And it is a rare
thing that the king requireth, and there is none other that can
show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not
with flesh. {25} Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king
in haste, and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the
captives of Judah, that will make known unto the king the
interpretation. {26} The king answered and said to Daniel,
whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto
me the dream which I have seen, and the interpretation thereof?
{27} Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The
secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the
astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, show unto the
king; {28} But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets,
and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in
the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon
thy bed, are these..
Dan 4:4-9 I Nebuchadnezzar was at rest in mine house, and
flourishing in my palace: {5} I saw a dream which made me
afraid, and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head
troubled me. {6} Therefore made I a decree to bring in all the
wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto
me the interpretation of the dream. {7} Then came in the
magicians, the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers:
and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known
unto me the interpretation thereof. {8} But at the last Daniel
came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to
the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods:
and before him I told the dream, saying, {9} O Belteshazzar,
master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the
holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the
visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation
thereof.
Dan 5:1 Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand
of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand. {4} They
drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of
brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone. {5} In the same hour
came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the
candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace:
and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote. {6} Then the
king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him,
so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees
smote one against another. {7} The king cried aloud to bring in
the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the
king spake, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever
shall read this writing, and show me the interpretation
thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of
gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the
kingdom. {8} Then came in all the king's wise men: but they
could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the
interpretation thereof. {9} Then was king Belshazzar greatly
troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords
were astonied. {10} Now the queen by reason of the words of the
king and his lords came into the banquet house: and the queen
spake and said, O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts
trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed: {11} There is
a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods;
and in the days of thy father light and understanding and
wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the
king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, I say, thy father,
made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and
soothsayers; {12} Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and
knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and
showing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found
in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let
Daniel be called, and he will show the interpretation.
Mal 3:5 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will
be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the
adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that
oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the
fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right,
and fear not me, saith the LORD of hosts.
Acts 8:9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which
beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the
people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:
{11} And to him they had regard, because that of long time he
had bewitched them with sorceries.
Acts 13:6 And when they had gone through the isle unto
Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew,
whose name was Barjesus:
Acts 13:8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by
interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy
from the faith.
Gal 5:19-20 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which
are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
{20} Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath,
strife, seditions, heresies,
Rev 9:21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their
sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
Rev 18:1 And after these things I saw another angel come
down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was
lightened with his glory. {2} And he cried mightily with a
strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen,
and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every
foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. {3}
For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her
fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed
fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed
rich through the abundance of her delicacies. {21} And a mighty
angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into
the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city
Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. {22}
And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and
trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no
craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more
in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at
all in thee; {23} And the light of a candle shall shine no more
at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the
bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants
were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all
nations deceived. {24} And in her was found the blood of
prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the
earth.
Rev 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the
abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and
idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake
which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second
death.
Rev 22:14-15 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that
they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in
through the gates into the city. {15} For without are dogs, and
sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and
whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
