Judicial Fairness and Witnesses

15

One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sins. At the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.

16

If an unrighteous witness rises up against any man to testify against him of wrongdoing,

17

then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges who shall be in those days;

18

and the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness is a false witness, and has testified falsely against his brother;

19

then you shall do to him as he had thought to do to his brother. So you shall remove the evil from your midst.

20

Those who remain shall hear, and fear, and will never again commit any such evil in your midst.

21

Your eyes shall not pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
