Deuteronomy 19:16-20
Deuteronomy 19:16
If a malicious witness rises up against a person to testify against him of wrongdoing,
Deuteronomy 19:17
then both people who have the dispute shall stand before the Lord, before the priests and the judges who will be in office in those days.
Deuteronomy 19:18
And the judges shall investigate thoroughly, and if the witness is a false witness and he has testified against his brother falsely,
Deuteronomy 19:19
then you shall do to him just as he had planned to do to his brother. So you shall eliminate the evil from among you.
Deuteronomy 19:20
And the rest of the people will hear and be afraid, and will never again do such an evil thing among you.
