(Lev 19:31 KJV) Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.
(Lev 20:6-7 KJV) 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. {7} Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.
(1 Sam 28:5-18 NIV) When Saul saw the Philistine army, he was afraid;
terror filled his heart. {6} He inquired of the LORD, but the LORD did
not answer him by dreams or Urim or prophets. {7} Saul then said to his
attendants, "Find me a woman who is a medium, so I may go and inquire of
her." "There is one in Endor," they said. {8} So Saul disguised himself,
putting on other clothes, and at night he and two men went to the woman.
"Consult a spirit for me," he said, "and bring up for me the one I name."
{9} But the woman said to him, "Surely you know what Saul has done. He has
cut off the mediums and spiritists from the land. Why have you set a trap
for my life to bring about my death?" {10} Saul swore to her by the LORD,
"As surely as the LORD lives, you will not be punished for this." {11}
Then the woman asked, "Whom shall I bring up for you?" "Bring up Samuel,"
he said. {12} When the woman saw Samuel, she cried out at the top of her
voice and said to Saul, "Why have you deceived me? You are Saul!"
{13} The king said to her, "Don't be afraid. What do you see?" The woman
said, "I see a spirit coming up out of the ground." {14} "What does he
look like?" he asked. "An old man wearing a robe is coming up," she said.
Then Saul knew it was Samuel, and he bowed down and prostrated himself
with his face to the ground. {15} Samuel said to Saul, "Why have you
disturbed me by bringing me up?" "I am in great distress," Saul said. "The
Philistines are fighting against me, and God has turned away from me. He
no longer answers me, either by prophets or by dreams. So I have called on
you to tell me what to do."
{16} Samuel said, "Why do you consult me, now that the LORD has turned
away from you and become your enemy? {17} The LORD has done what he
predicted through me. The LORD has torn the kingdom out of your hands and
given it to one of your neighbors--to David. {18} Because you did not obey
the LORD or carry out his fierce wrath against the Amalekites, the LORD
has done this to you today.
(2 Ki 17:16-17 KJV) And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal. {17} And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
(2 Ki 21:2-17 KJV) And he did that which was evil in the sight of
the LORD, after the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out
before the children of Israel. {3} For he built up again the high places
which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal,
and made a grove, as did Ahab king of Israel; and worshipped all the host
of heaven, and served them.
{4} And he built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD said,
In Jerusalem will I 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} And he made his
son pass through the fire, and observed times, and used enchantments, and
dealt with familiar spirits and wizards: he wrought much wickedness in the
sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
{7} And he set a graven image
of the grove that he had made in the house, of which the LORD said to
David, and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I
have chosen out of all tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever: {8}
Neither will I make the feet of Israel move any more out of the land which
I gave their fathers; only if they will observe to do according to all
that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant
Moses commanded them.
{9} But they hearkened not: and Manasseh seduced them to do more evil than
did the nations whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.
{10} And the LORD spake by his servants the prophets, saying, {11} Because
Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, and hath done
wickedly above all that the Amorites did, which were before him, and hath
made Judah also to sin with his idols:
{12} Therefore thus saith the LORD
God of Israel, Behold, I am bringing such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah,
that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle. {13} And I will
stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house
of Ahab: and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it, and
turning it upside down. {14} And I will forsake the remnant of mine
inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they
shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies; {15} Because they
have done that which was evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger,
since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day.
{16} Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled
Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he made Judah
to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of the LORD. {17} Now
the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he
sinned, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of
Judah?
(2 Ki 23:24-27 KJV) Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and
the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that
were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away,
that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book
that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD. {25} And like unto
him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his
heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the
law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
{26} Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great
wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the
provocations that Manasseh had provoked him withal. {27} And the LORD
said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel,
and will cast off this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house
of which I said, My name shall be there.
(Isa 8:19 KJV) And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?
(Isa 19:3-4 KJV) And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards. {4} And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
(Acts 16:16-18 KJV) And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: {17} The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which show unto us the way of salvation. {18} And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.
