Deuteronomy 19:12Bible in Basic English 1965The responsible men of his town are to send and take him, and give him up to the one who has the right of punishment to be put to death. See the chapter |
And now all the family is turned against me, your servant, saying, Give up him who was the cause of his brother's death, so that we may put him to death in payment for the life of his brother, whose life he took; and we will put an end to the one who will get the heritage: so they will put out my last burning coal, and my husband will have no name or offspring on the face of the earth.
