6 When your brother, son of your mother, or your son, or your daughter, or the wife of your bosom, or your friend who [is] as your own soul, moves you in secret, saying, Let us go and serve other gods (which you have not known, you and your fathers, 7 of the gods of the peoples who [are] around you, who are near to you, or who are far off from you, from the end of the earth even to the [other] end of the earth), 8 you do not consent to him, nor listen to him, nor does your eye have pity on him, nor do you spare, nor do you cover him over. 9 But you surely kill him; your hand is on him in the first place to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last; 10 and you have stoned him with stones and he has died, for he has sought to drive you away from your God YHWH, who is bringing you out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants; 11 and all Israel hears and fears, and does not add to do like this evil thing in your midst.
