Deuteronomy 19:15

¹⁵Ne valoras unu atestanto kontraŭ homo en ĉia kulpo, en ĉia krimo, kaj en ĉia peko, kiun li pekos: laŭ la diro de du atestantoj aŭ laŭ la diro de tri atestantoj oni povas fari proceson.a

Deuteronomy 19 establishes laws concerning justice, particularly focusing on the cities of refuge and the principle of “eye for an eye.” It details the provision for accidental manslaughter, distinguishing it from premeditated murder, and outlines the legal process for ensuring fair judgment. The chapter also emphasizes the necessity of multiple witnesses for conviction and introduces the severe penalty for false testimony, underscoring God's commitment to truth and the protection of the innocent within the covenant community.
