Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife: so thou shalt put away evil from among you.

Verse 24 is found in chapter 22 of Deuteronomy. Laws concerning accusations against a wife, adultery, seduction, and other sexual situations establish different procedures and responsibilities. The text treats sexuality within the framework of covenant, family reputation, and communal justice. The various cases show that Deuteronomy does not apply a single penalty to every situation, but distinguishes specific circumstances.

so sollt ihr sie alle beide zu der Stadt Tor ausführen und sollt sie steinigen, daß sie sterben; die Dirne darum, daß sie nicht geschrieen hat, da sie doch in der Stadt war; den Mann darum, daß er seines Nächsten Weib geschändet hat; und sollst das Böse von dir tun.
Entonces los sacaréis a ambos a la puerta de aquella ciudad, y los apedrearéis con piedras, y morirán; la moza porque no dio voces en la ciudad, y el hombre porque humilló a la mujer de su prójimo: así quitarás el mal de en medio de ti.
los sacarán a ambos a la puerta de aquella ciudad y los apedrearán hasta que mueran: a la joven, porque no gritó en la ciudad, y al hombre, porque humilló a la esposa de su prójimo. Así eliminarás el mal de en medio de ti.
vous les amènerez tous deux à la porte de la ville, vous les lapiderez, et ils mourront, la jeune fille pour n'avoir pas crié dans la ville, et l'homme pour avoir déshonoré la femme de son prochain. Tu ôteras ainsi le mal du milieu de toi.
menateli amendue fuori alla porta di quella città, e lapidateli con pietre, sì che muoiano; la fanciulla, perchè non avrà gridato, essendo nella città, e l’uomo, perchè avrà violata la pudicizia della moglie del suo prossimo. E così togli via il male del mezzo di te.
Então trareis ambos à porta daquela cidade, e os apedrejareis, até que morram; a moça, porquanto não gritou na cidade, e o homem, porquanto humilhou a mulher do seu próximo; assim tirarás o mal do meio de ti.
你們就要把這二人帶到那城的城門口,用石頭打死他們。處死女子是因為她雖然在城裏, 卻沒有喊叫;處死男子是因為他玷污了鄰舍的妻子。這樣,你就把惡從你中間除掉。
