When you have come into the land which Yahweh your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate the abominations of those nations.

Context

6If a Levite comes from any of your gates out of all Israel where he lives, and comes with all the desire of his soul to the place which Yahweh shall choose,
7then he shall minister in the name of Yahweh his God, as all his brothers the Levites do, who stand there before Yahweh.
8They shall have like portions to eat, in addition to that which comes from the sale of his family possessions.
9When you have come into the land which Yahweh your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate the abominations of those nations.
10There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who tells fortunes, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,
11or a charmer, or someone who consults with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
12For whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh. Because of these abominations, Yahweh your God drives them out from before you.
