Deuteronomy 13:6-11
Living Bible
6-7 “If your nearest relative or closest friend, even a brother, son, daughter, or beloved wife whispers to you to come and worship these foreign gods, 8 do not consent or listen, and have no pity: Do not spare that person from the penalty; don’t conceal his horrible suggestion. 9 Execute him! Your own hand shall be the first upon him to put him to death, then the hands of all the people. 10 Stone him to death because he has tried to draw you away from the Lord your God who brought you from the land of Egypt, the place of slavery. 11 Then all Israel will hear about his evil deed and will fear such wickedness as this among you.
