Leviticus 24:16

Verse 16 of 23. The 24th of 27 chapters in Leviticus, in The Law.

12They put him in custody until the LORD’s will should be declared to them.

13The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

14“Bring him who cursed out of the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.

15You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.

16He who blasphemes the LORD’s name, he shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall certainly stone him. The foreigner as well as the native-born shall be put to death when he blasphemes the Name.

17“‘He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.

18He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.

19If anyone injures his neighbor, it shall be done to him as he has done:

20fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. It shall be done to him as he has injured someone.
