Leviticus 24:11-23 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

11. The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. His mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.

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

13. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

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

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

16. He 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, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.

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

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

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

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

21. He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.

22. You shall have one kind of law for the foreigner as well as the native-born; for I am the Lord your God.’”

23. Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they brought him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.
