Leviticus 24:15-23 ▼

15 And tell the Israelites: If anyone curses his God, he will bear the consequences of his sin.

16 Whoever blasphemes the name of the LORD must be put to death; the whole community is to stone him. If he blasphemes the Name, he is to be put to death, whether the resident alien or the native.

17 “If a man kills anyone, he must be put to death.

18 Whoever kills an animal is to make restitution for it, life for life.

19 If any man inflicts a permanent injury on his neighbor, whatever he has done is to be done to him:

20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Whatever injury he inflicted on the person, the same is to be inflicted on him.

21 Whoever kills an animal is to make restitution for it, but whoever kills a person is to be put to death.

22 You are to have the same law for the resident alien and the native, because I am the LORD your God.”

23 After Moses spoke to the Israelites, they brought the one who had cursed to the outside of the camp and stoned him. So the Israelites did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
