Leviticus 24:12-23 - An Example Of Just And Fair Punishment

12 and they put him in ward, - that a clear answer might be given to them at the mouth of Yahweh. 14 Bring forth him that reviled unto the out-side of the camp, then shall all that heard him lean their hands upon his head, - and all the assembly shall stone him. 15 And, unto the sons of Israel, shalt thou speak saying, - What man soever curseth his God shall bear his sin. 16 And, he that contemptuously uttereth the name of Yahweh, shall be, surely put to death, all the assembly shall, surely stone, him, - as the sojourner so the home-born, when he contemptuously-uttereth the Name, he shall be put to death.

17 And, when, any man, by smiting taketh the life of any human being, he shall be surely put to death, 18 And he that by smiting taketh away the life of a beast, shall make it good, - life for life. 19 And, when, any man, inflicteth a blemish upon his neighbour, as he hath done, so, shall it be done to him: 20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, as he inflicteth a blemish upon a human being, so, shall one be inflicted upon him. 21 And he that killeth a beast, shall make it good,-and he that killeth a human being, shall be put to death. 22 One rule, shall ye have, as the sojourner, so the home-born, shall be, - For, I - Yahweh, am your God.

23 So then Moses spake unto the sons of Israel, and they took forth the reviler, unto the outside of the camp, and stoned him with stones. Thus, the sons of Israel did, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
