17 then both men who have the dispute shall stand before יהוה, before the priests and the judges who serve in those days.
18 “And the judges shall diligently search and see if the witness is a false witness, who has falsely accused his brother,
19 then you shall do to him as he thought to have done to his brother. Thus you shall purge the evil from your midst.
20 “And let the rest hear and fear, and never again do this evil matter in your midst.
21 “And let your eye not pardon, life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
