05:013:005 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to
death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD your God,
which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the
house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the LORD thy God
commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the
midst of thee.
05:013:006 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy
daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine
own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods,
which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
05:013:007 Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you,
nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth
even unto the other end of the earth;
05:013:008 Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him;
neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither
shalt thou conceal him:
05:013:009 But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first
upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the
people.
05:013:010 And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because
he hath sought to thrust thee away from the LORD thy God, which brought
thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
05:013:011 And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more
any such wickedness as this is among you.
05:013:012 If thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities, which the LORD
thy God hath given thee to dwell there, saying,
05:013:013 Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among
you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us
go and serve other gods, which ye have not known;
05:013:014 Then shalt thou enquire, and make search, and ask
diligently; and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain, that
such abomination is wrought among you;
05:013:015 Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with
the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein,
and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword.
05:013:016 And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it into the midst of
the street thereof, and shalt burn with fire the city, and all the
spoil thereof every whit, for the LORD thy God: and it shall be an heap
for ever; it shall not be built again.
05:013:017 And there shall cleave nought of the cursed thing to thine
hand: that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and shew
thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he
hath sworn unto thy fathers;
05:013:018 When thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to
keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that
which is right in the eyes of the LORD thy God.
05:014:001 Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut
yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
