Deuteronomy 19:14-21
Deuteronomy 19:14-21 NCV
Do not move the stone that marks the border of your neighbor’s land, which people long ago set in place. It marks what you inherit in the land the LORD your God is giving you as your own. One witness is not enough to accuse a person of a crime or sin. A case must be proved by two or three witnesses. If a witness lies and accuses a person of a crime, the two people who are arguing must stand in the presence of the LORD before the priests and judges who are on duty. The judges must check the matter carefully. The witness who is a liar, lying about a fellow Israelite, must be punished. He must be punished in the same way the other person would have been punished. You must get rid of the evil among you. The rest of the people will hear about this and be afraid, and no one among you will ever do such an evil thing again. Show no mercy. A life must be paid for a life, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot.
