|
| 15 | "A single witness shall not prevail against a man for any crime or for any wrong in connection with any offence that he has committed; only on the evidence of two witnesses, or of three witnesses, shall a charge be sustained. | Witnesses. Dt.19.15-21 |
| 16 | If a malicious witness rises against any man to accuse him of wrongdoing, | |
| 17 | then both parties to the dispute shall appear before Yahweh, before the priests and the judges who are in office in those days; | |
| 18 | the judges shall inquire diligently, and if the witness is a false witness and has accused his brother falsely, | |
| 19 | then you shall do to him as he had meant to do to his brother; so you shall purge the evil from the midst of you. | |
| 20 | And the rest shall hear, and fear, and shall never again commit any such evil among you. | |
| 21 | Your eye shall not pity; it shall be life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot. | |
