5.In Yoruba culture, those whose minds have been giving them difficulties have traditionally gone to visit a highly revered therapeutic figure known as a diviner or Babalawo.
6.So do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your interpreters of dreams, your mediums or your sorcerers who tell you, 'You will not serve the king of Babylon'.
8.The idols speak deceitfully, diviners see visions that lie; they tell dreams that are false, they give comfort in vain. Therefore the people wander like sheep oppressed for lack of a shepherd.
9.And he knew that Bob Wade, simple and undefiled by literature — Bernald's specific affliction — had a free and personal way of judging men, and the diviner's knack of reaching their hidden springs.
10.In a spiritual consultation, a diviner will take a measure of a sufferer's particular history, and to do so will make use of a highly prized object called an iroki ifa, a stick-like divination tapper, which they will start to beat rhythmically on the ground.
