Punishment for Blasphemy

10And an Israelite woman’s son, and he was an Egyptian man’s son, went out in the midst of the Israelites;t and the Israelite woman’s son and anu Israelite man fought in the camp. 11Thenv the Israelite woman’s son blasphemed the name, and he cursed, sow they brought him to Moses—and the name of his mother was Shelomith the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan. 12Thenx they put him in custody so thaty the matter might be made clear to them in accordance with the mouth of Yahweh.

13Thenz Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 14“Bring the curser outside the camp,a and all the hearers shall place their hands on his head, and the whole community shall stone him. 15And you shall speak to the Israelites,b saying, ‘Any manc when he curses his God shall beard his sin. 16And he who blasphemes Yahweh’s name certainly shall be put to death; the whole community certainly shall stone him. As the alien, so the native shall be put to death at blaspheming his name.

17“ ‘And when a man kills any human being, he certainly shall be put to death.
