Leviticus 24:17
And if a man takes the life of anyone else, he must surely be put to death.
BSB
ASV
And he that smiteth any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
KJV
And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.
And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death. With the sword, as the Targum of Jonathan adds; which restrains it to any man of the children of Israel, but wrongly; for the original law respects any man whatever, Gen 9:6; and so it does here; See Gill on Exo 21:12.
He that killeth - This law is repeated here, to prevent the mischievous effects of men's striving together, which as here it caused blasphemy, so it might in others lead to murder.
