Verse 18 is found in chapter 13 of Deuteronomy. If an entire city abandons the Lord and follows other gods, Israel must carefully investigate the accusation before acting. If the idolatry is confirmed, the city must be destroyed as an act of judgment. The section combines a radical response to apostasy with a requirement for investigation and verification before carrying out the sentence.

Und laß nichts von dem Bann an deiner Hand hangen, auf daß der HERR von dem Grimm seines Zorns abgewendet werde und gebe dir Barmherzigkeit und erbarme sich deiner und mehre dich, wie er den Vätern geschworen hat;
Cuando obedecieres a la voz de Jehová tu Dios, guardando todos sus mandamientos que yo te prescribo hoy, para hacer lo recto en ojos de Jehová tu Dios.
si tu obéis à la voix de l'Eternel, ton Dieu, en observant tous ses commandements que je te prescris aujourd'hui, et en faisant ce qui est droit aux yeux de l'Eternel, ton Dieu.
quando tu ubbidirai alla voce del Signore Iddio tuo, per osservar tutti i suoi comandamenti, i quali io oggi ti do, per fare ciò ch’è diritto appo il Signore Iddio tuo
Quando ouvires a voz do SENHOR teu Deus, para guardares todos os seus mandamentos que hoje te ordeno; para fazeres o que for reto aos olhos do SENHOR teu Deus.
因為你聽從耶和華-你上帝的話,遵守我今日所吩咐你的一切誡命,行耶和華-你上帝眼中看為正的事。」
