Deuteronomy 13:13-15 ▼

13 that wicked men have sprung up among you, led the inhabitants of their city astray, and said, ‘Let’s go and worship other gods,’ which you have not known,

14 you are to inquire, investigate, and interrogate thoroughly. If the report turns out to be true that this detestable act has been done among you,

15 you must strike down the inhabitants of that city with the sword. Completely destroy everyone in it as well as its livestock with the sword.
