Ulangan 18:22

18:22 whenever a prophet speaks in my ¹  name and the prediction ²  is not fulfilled, ³  then I have ⁴  not spoken it; ⁵  the prophet has presumed to speak it, so you need not fear him.”

Ulangan 20:19

20:19 If you besiege a city for a long time while attempting to capture it, ⁶  you must not chop down its trees, ⁷  for you may eat fruit ⁸  from them and should not cut them down. A tree in the field is not human that you should besiege it! ⁹

[20:19]  ⁷ tn Heb “you must not destroy its trees by chopping them with an iron” (i.e., an ax).
