For the king of Babylon will stop at the fork in the road, at the junction of the two roads, to seek an omen: He will cast lots with arrows, he will consult his idols, he will examine the liver.

The king of Babylon will stop at the place where the two roads meet. He will look for a special sign. He will cast lots by pulling arrows out of a bag. He will ask his gods for advice. And he will look carefully at the liver of a sheep.

The lot is cast into the lap, But its every decision is from the Lord.

Laban had gone to shear his flock, and Rachel stole the household idols that were her father’s.

The priest’s heart was glad, and he took the ephod, the household idols, and the carved image, and went among the people.

Now you have indeed gone away because you longed greatly for your father’s house; but why did you steal my gods?”

And the man Micah had a shrine and he made an ephod and household idols, and consecrated one of his sons, so that he might become his priest.

For the household idols speak deception, And the diviners see an illusion And tell deceitful dreams; They comfort in vain. Therefore the people wander like sheep, They are wretched because there is no shepherd.

The king’s heart is like channels of water in the hand of the Lord; He turns it wherever He pleases.

For there is no magic curse against Jacob, Nor is there any divination against Israel; At the proper time it shall be said to Jacob And to Israel, what God has done!

When these men entered Micah’s house and took the carved image, the ephod, household idols, and the cast metal image, the priest said to them,“ What are you doing?”

Moreover, Josiah removed the mediums, the spiritists, the household idols, the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, so that he might fulfill the words of the Law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the Lord.

My people consult their wooden idol, and their diviner’s wand informs them; For a spirit of infidelity has led them astray, And they have been unfaithful, departing from their God.

So Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, which overlooks the desert.

For rebellion is as reprehensible as the sin of divination, And insubordination is as reprehensible as false religion and idolatry. Since you have rejected the word of the Lord, He has also rejected you from being king.”

It happened that as we were going to the place of prayer, a slave woman who had a spirit of divination met us, who was bringing great profit to her masters by fortune telling.

There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, a soothsayer, one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer,

Then the five men who went to spy out the country of Laish said to their kinsmen,“ Do you know that there are in these houses an ephod and household idols, and a carved image and a cast metal image? Now then, consider what you should do.”

And he said,“ You have taken my gods which I made, and the priest, and have gone away; what more do I have? So how can you say to me,‘ What is the matter with you?’ ”

For the sons of Israel will live for many days without a king or leader, without sacrifice or memorial stone, and without ephod or household idols.

So the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian left with the fees for divination in their hands; and they came to Balaam and repeated Balak’s words to him.

A divine verdict is on the lips of the king; His mouth should not err in judgment.
