God’s Word Translation
Deuteronomy 17:2-7
2In one of the cities the Lord your God is giving you, there may be a man or woman among you who is doing what the Lord considers evil. This person may be disregarding the conditions of the Lord’s promise
3by worshiping and bowing down to other gods, the sun, the moon, or the whole army of heaven. I have forbidden this.
4When you are told about it, investigate it thoroughly. If it’s true and it can be proven that this disgusting thing has been done in Israel,
5then bring the man or woman who did this evil thing to the gates of your city, and stone that person to death.
6The person can only be sentenced to death on the testimony of two or three witnesses, but no one should ever be sentenced to death on the testimony of only one witness.
7The witnesses must start the execution, then all the other people will join them in putting the person to death. You must get rid of this evil.
