Deuteronomy 17:2-7
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 17
2
If there is found in your midst, in any of your towns which the
Lord
your God is giving you, a man or a woman who does what is evil in the sight of the
Lord
your God, by violating His covenant,
3
and
that person
has gone and served other gods and worshiped them, or the sun, the moon, or any of the heavenly lights, which I have commanded not to do,
4
and if it is reported to you and you have heard
about it,
then you shall investigate thoroughly. And if it is true and the report is trustworthy that this detestable thing has been done in Israel,
5
then you are to bring out to your gates that man or woman who has done this evil deed,
that is,
the man or the woman, and you shall stone them to death.
6
On the testimony of two witnesses or three witnesses, the condemned shall be put to death; he shall not be put to death on the testimony of
only
one witness.
7
The hands of the witnesses shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So you shall eliminate the evil from your midst.
King James Version
Chapter 17
2
If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the
Lord
thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the
Lord
thy God, in transgressing his covenant,
3
And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
4
And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel:
5
Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.
6
At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.
7
The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So thou shalt put the evil away from among you.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 17
2
"If a man or woman among you in one of your towns that the
Lord
your God will give you is discovered doing evil in the sight of the
Lord
your God and violating his covenant
3
and has gone to serve other gods by bowing in worship to the sun, moon, or all the stars in the sky —which I have forbidden —
4
and if you are told or hear about it, then investigate it thoroughly. If the report turns out to be true that this detestable act has been done in Israel,
5
you are to bring out to your city gates that man or woman who has done this evil thing and stone them to death.
6
The one condemned to die is to be executed on the testimony of two or three witnesses. No one is to be executed on the testimony of a single witness.
7
The witnesses’ hands are to be the first in putting him to death, and after that, the hands of all the people. You must purge the evil from you.
New Living Translation
Chapter 17
2
When you begin living in the towns the
Lord
your God is giving you, a man or woman among you might do evil in the sight of the
Lord
your God and violate the covenant.
3
For instance, they might serve other gods or worship the sun, the moon, or any of the stars — the forces of heaven — which I have strictly forbidden.
4
When you hear about it, investigate the matter thoroughly. If it is true that this detestable thing has been done in Israel,
5
then the man or woman who has committed such an evil act must be taken to the gates of the town and stoned to death.
6
But never put a person to death on the testimony of only one witness. There must always be two or three witnesses.
7
The witnesses must throw the first stones, and then all the people may join in. In this way, you will purge the evil from among you.
English Standard Version
Chapter 17
2
"If there is found among you, within any of your towns that the
Lord
your God is giving you, a man or woman who does what is evil in the sight of the
Lord
your God, in transgressing his covenant,
3
and has gone and served other gods and worshiped them, or the sun or the moon or any of the host of heaven, which I have forbidden,
4
and it is told you and you hear of it, then you shall inquire diligently, and if it is true and certain that such an abomination has been done in Israel,
5
then you shall bring out to your gates that man or woman who has done this evil thing, and you shall stone that man or woman to death with stones.
6
On the evidence of two witnesses or of three witnesses the one who is to die shall be put to death; a person shall not be put to death on the evidence of one witness.
7
The hand of the witnesses shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. So you shall purge the evil from your midst.
New International Version
Chapter 17
2
If a man or woman living among you in one of the towns the
Lord
gives you is found doing evil in the eyes of the
Lord
your God in violation of his covenant,
3
and contrary to my command has worshiped other gods, bowing down to them or to the sun or the moon or the stars in the sky,
4
and this has been brought to your attention, then you must investigate it thoroughly. If it is true and it has been proved that this detestable thing has been done in Israel,
5
take the man or woman who has done this evil deed to your city gate and stone that person to death.
6
On the testimony of two or three witnesses a person is to be put to death, but no one is to be put to death on the testimony of only one witness.
7
The hands of the witnesses must be the first in putting that person to death, and then the hands of all the people. You must purge the evil from among you.
New King James Version
Chapter 17
2
“If there is found among you, within any of your gates which the
Lord
your God gives you, a man or a woman who has been wicked in the sight of the
Lord
your God, in transgressing His covenant,
3
who has gone and served other gods and worshiped them, either the sun or moon or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded,
4
and it is told you, and you hear
of it,
then you shall inquire diligently. And if
it is
indeed true
and
certain that such an abomination has been committed in Israel,
5
then you shall bring out to your gates that man or woman who has committed that wicked thing, and shall stone to death that man or woman with stones.
6
Whoever is deserving of death shall be put to death on the testimony of two or three witnesses; he shall not be put to death on the testimony of one witness.
7
The hands of the witnesses shall be the first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So you shall put away the evil from among you.
