*
If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son ,
which will not obey the voice of his father ,
or the voice of his mother ,
and that ,
when they have chastened him ,
will not hearken unto them :
*
Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him ,
and bring him out unto the elders of his city ,
and unto the gate of his place ;
*
And they shall say unto the elders of his city ,
This our son is stubborn and rebellious ,
he will not obey our voice ;
he is a glutton ,
and a drunkard .
*
And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones ,
that he die :
so shalt thou put evil away from among you ;
and all Israel shall hear ,
and fear .
*
And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death ,
and he be to be put to death ,
and thou hang him on a tree :
*
His body shall not remain all night upon the tree ,
but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day ; (
for he that is hanged is accursed of God ;)
that thy land be not defiled ,
which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance .
