Deuteronomy Chapter 21 Verse 18 - 23
Translations: World English BibleBible in Basic EnglishKing James Version
18.) If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, who will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and, though they chasten him, will not listen to them;
19.) then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out to the elders of his city, and to the gate of his place;
20.) and they shall tell the elders of his city, "This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard."
21.) All the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones: so you shall put away the evil from the midst of you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
22.) If a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be put to death, and you hang him on a tree;
23.) his body shall not remain all night on the tree, but you shall surely bury him the same day; for he who is hanged is accursed of God; that you don't defile your land which Yahweh your God gives you for an inheritance.
