10 Stone them to death! They tried to lead you away from the Lord your God, who rescued you from Egypt, where you were slaves.
11 Then all the people of Israel will hear what happened; they will be afraid, and no one will ever again do such an evil thing.
12 “When you are living in the towns that the Lord your God gives you, you may hear
13 that some worthless people of your nation have misled the people of their town to worship gods that you have never worshipped before.
14 If you hear such a rumour, investigate it thoroughly; and if it is true that this evil thing did happen,
15 then kill all the people in that town and all their livestock too. Destroy that town completely.
16 Bring together all the possessions of the people who live there and pile them up in the town square. Then burn the town and everything in it as an offering to the Lord your God. It must be left in ruins for ever and never again be rebuilt.
