20 And shall say vnto the Elders of his citie, This our sonne is stubburne and disobedient, and he wil not obey our admonition: he is a ryotour, and a drunkard. 21 Then all the men of his citie shall stone him with stones vnto death: so thou shalt take away euill from among you, that all Israel may heare it, and feare. 22 If a man also haue committed a trespasse worthy of death, and is put to death, & thou hangest him on a tree, 23 His body shal not remaine all night vpon the tree, but thou shalt bury him the same day: for the curse of God is on him that is hanged. Defile not therfore thy land which the Lord thy God giueth thee to inherite. Deuteronomy 21:20-23, Geneva Bible of 1587. Public domain.
