10	There was a son of an Israelite woman and an Egyptian father. He was walking among the Israelites, and he started fighting in camp.

11	The Israelite woman's son began cursing and saying bad things about the Lord's name, so the people brought him to Moses. (The name of the man's mother was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, from the tribe of Dan.)

12	The people held him as a prisoner and waited for the Lord's command to be made clear to them.

13	Then the Lord said to Moses,

14	"Bring the man who cursed to a place outside the camp. Then bring together everyone who heard him curse. They will put their hands on his head. And then all the people must throw stones at him and kill him.

15	You must tell the Israelites: Anyone who curses their God must be punished.

16	Anyone who speaks against the name of the Lord must be put to death. All the people must stone him. Foreigners must be punished just as the person who was born in Israel. Anyone who curses the Lord's name must be put to death.

17	"And whoever kills another person must be put to death.

18	Whoever kills an animal that belongs to another person must give another animal to take its place.

19	"And whoever causes an injury to their neighbor must be given the same kind of injury:

20	A broken bone for a broken bone, an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. The same kind of injury a person gives another person must be given that person.

21	Whoever kills an animal must pay for the animal. But whoever kills another person must be put to death.

22	"The law will be the same for foreigners and for people from your own country. This is because I am the Lord your God."

23	Then Moses spoke to the Israelites, and they took the man who cursed to a place outside the camp. Then they killed him with stones. So the Israelites did just what the Lord had commanded Moses.
