13:2 and the sign or wonder should come to pass concerning what he said to you, namely, “Let us follow other gods” – gods whom you have not previously known – “and let us serve them.”
13:3 You must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer, 1 for the Lord your God will be testing you to see if you love him 2 with all your mind and being. 3
1 tnHeb “or dreamer of dreams.” See note on this expression in v. 1.
2 tnHeb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.
3 tnHeb “all your heart and soul” (so NRSV, CEV, NLT); or “heart and being” (NCV “your whole being”). See note on the word “being” in Deut 6:5.
