Deuteronomy 25:2-3

2If the person who’s in the wrong deserves to be beaten, the judge will order him to lie down. Then the judge will have him beaten with as many lashes as the crime deserves.

3Forty lashes may be given, but no more. If an Israelite were given more than that, he would be publicly humiliated.
