Deuteronomy 17:3-5

International Children’s Bible

³ That person may have served other gods. He may have bowed down to them, to the sun or moon or stars of the sky. I have commanded that should not be done. ⁴ If someone has told you about it, you must look into the matter. It might be true. A terrible thing may have happened in Israel. ⁵ If it is true, take the man or woman who has done the evil thing to the city gate. Throw stones at that person until he dies.
