And it shall be, that he that is taken {H3920} with the accursed thing {H2764} shall be burnt {H8313} with fire {H784}, he and all that he hath: because he hath transgressed {H5674} the covenant {H1285} of the LORD {H3068}, and because he hath wrought {H6213} folly {H5039} in Israel {H3478}.

The person who is caught with things in his possession that were reserved for destruction is to be burned to ashes, he and everything he has, because he has violated the covenant of ADONAI and has committed a shameful deed in Isra'el.'"

The one who is caught with the things devoted to destruction must be burned, along with all that belongs to him, because he has transgressed the covenant of the LORD and committed an outrage in Israel.’”

And it shall be, that he that is taken with the devoted thing shall be burnt with fire, he and all that he hath; because he hath transgressed the covenant of Jehovah, and because he hath wrought folly in Israel.
