13The Lord told Moses,
14“Take the man who cursed me outside the camp. Have all who heard him curse put their hands on his head; then have everyone stone him to death.
15Tell the Israelites that anyone who curses their God will be punished for their sin.
16Anyone who curses the name of the Lord must to be executed. All of you must stone them to death, whether they are a foreigner who lives with you or an Israelite. If they curse my name, they must be executed.
17Anyone who kills someone else must be executed.
18Anyone who kills an animal has to replace it—a life for a life.
19If anyone injures someone else, whatever they've done must be done to them:
20a broken bone for a broken bone, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Whatever way they injured the victim, the same must be done to them.
21Anyone who kills an animal has to replace it, but anyone who kills someone else must be executed.
22The same laws apply to foreigners who live with you as to Israelites, for I am the Lord your God.”
23Moses told this to the Israelites, and they took the man who cursed the Lord outside the camp and stoned him to death. The Israelites did what the Lord ordered Moses to do.
