Leviticus 24:10-16
1599 Geneva Bible
10 ¶ And there went [a]out among the children of Israel the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian: and this son of the Israelitish woman, and a man of Israel strove together in the host.
11 So the Israelitish woman’s son [b]blasphemed the Name of the Lord, and cursed, and they brought him unto Moses (his mother’s name also was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri of the tribe of Dan)
12 And they (A)put him in ward, till he told them the mind of the Lord.
13 Then the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
14 Bring the blasphemer without the host, and let all that heard him, (B)put their hands upon his head, and let all the Congregation stone him.
15 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God, shall [c]bear his sin.
16 And he that blasphemeth the Name of the Lord, shall be put to death: all the Congregation shall stone him to death: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land: when he blasphemeth the Name of the Lord, let him be slain.
