Numbers 15:29-31

The Voice

²⁹ This is the way it should be for Israelites and outsiders alike—for anyone who accidentally errs. ^30-31 If it’s not an accident—the guilty person simply didn’t care about abiding by the instructions I gave to the Israelites through Moses and knowingly disregarded them—that’s different. Such a person, whether an Israelite or a stranger, has essentially rejected God. The community will ostracize him, and he’ll have to bear the burden of his guilt.”
