Deuteronomy 19:17-21 Amplified Bible (AMP)

17. Then both parties to the controversy shall stand before the Lord, before the priests and the judges who are in office in those days.

18. The judges shall inquire diligently, and if the witness is a false witness and has accused his brother falsely,

19. Then you shall do to him as he had intended to do to his brother. So you shall put away the evil from among you.

20. And those who remain shall hear and [reverently] fear, and shall henceforth commit no such evil among you.

21. Your eyes shall not pity: it shall be life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
