Numbers 15:30-36
Numbers 15:30-36 NCV
“ ‘But anyone who sins on purpose is against the LORD and must be cut off from the people, whether it is someone born among you or a foreigner. That person has turned against the LORD’s word and has not obeyed his commands. Such a person must surely be cut off from the others. He is guilty.’ ” When the Israelites were still in the desert, they found a man gathering wood on the Sabbath day. Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and all the people. They held the man under guard, because they did not know what to do with him. Then the LORD said to Moses, “The man must surely die. All the people must kill him by throwing stones at him outside the camp.” So all the people took him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD commanded Moses.
