The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example, if you are a 3rd-level cleric, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Wisdom of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination.
Do domain spells count against spells prepared?
Each domain has a list of spells—its domain spells— that you gain at the cleric levels noted in the domain description. Once you gain a domain spell, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day.
How many spells can a cleric learn per day?
A 1st level Cleric can prepare a number of spells from the full list of 1st level spells equal to their Wisdom Modifier + Cleric Level per day. Once a Cleric, Druid, or Paladin reaches the proper level to gain 2nd level spell slots, again they can prepare spells from the full list of 2nd level spells.
How many domain spells can you prepare at 4th level?
The domain spells do NOT count towards your number of currently prepared spells. You can prepare a total number of spells equal to your Wisdom Modifier + your cleric level. Say you had a Wisdom bonus of +3, this would give you 7 spells prepared at 4th level.
What kind of spells can a cleric cast?
Spells: A cleric casts divine spells. A cleric may prepare and cast any spell on the cleric spell list, provided he can cast spells of that level. The Difficulty Class for a saving throw against a cleric’s spell is 10 + the spell’s level + the cleric’s Wisdom modifier.
How many cleric cantrips do you have at 1st level?

You learn additional cleric cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Cleric table. The Cleric table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher.
