'Execution' in the Bible
then the elders of his own city shall send for him, remove him from there, and deliver him to the related avenger for execution.
"My God, I am too ashamed and hurt to turn to you, because we're in our iniquities over our heads. Furthermore, my God, our sins have grown as high as the heavens. We have lived in great sin from the days of our ancestors even until today, and because of those iniquities we, our kings, and our priests have been delivered over to foreign kings, for execution, for captivity, for plunder, and for humiliation, as is the case today.
Now as to the other animals, their authority was removed, but they were granted a reprieve from execution for an appointed period of time."
