Deuteronomy 18:20

14So the Lord cut off from Israel ehead and tail,palm branch and reed in one day—
15 fthe elder and honored man is the head,
and gthe prophet who teaches lies is the tail;

17And I will make justice hthe line,and righteousness ithe plumb line;
and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies,

and your agreement with Sheol will not stand;
when the overwhelming scourge passes through,
you will be beaten down by it.
