12 and he was kept in custody till a decision from the LORD should settle the case for them. 13 The LORD then said to Moses: 14 Take the blasphemer outside the camp, and when all who heard him have laid their hands on his head, let the whole community stone him. 15 Tell the Israelites: Anyone who blasphemes God shall bear the penalty; 16 whoever utters the name of the LORD in a curse shall be put to death. The whole community shall stone that person; alien and native-born alike must be put to death for uttering the LORD’s name in a curse. Leviticus 24:12-16, New American Bible Revised.
