So you are to put away the evil from among you.

Gods of the peoples round about you, near or far, from one end of the earth to the other;
Do not be guided by him or give attention to him; have no pity on him or mercy, and give him no cover;
But put him to death without question; let your hand be the first stretched out against him to put him to death, and then the hands of all the people.

And all Israel, hearing of it, will be full of fear, and no one will again do such evil as this among you.
