Leviticus 24:13-16

13The Lord spoke to Moses,

14“The man who cursed ⌞my name⌟ must be taken outside the camp. All who heard him curse ⌞my name⌟ must lay their hands on his head. Then the whole congregation must stone him to death.

15“Also tell the Israelites: Those who treat their God with contempt will be punished for their sin.

16But those who curse the Lord’s name must be put to death. The whole congregation must stone them to death. It makes no difference whether they are Israelites or foreigners. Whoever curses the Lord’s name must die.
