If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:

If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and does not listen to them when disciplined,

Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;

his father and mother are to lay hold of him and bring him to the elders of his city, to the gate of his hometown,

And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.

and say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious; he does not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.”

And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.

Then all the men of his city will stone him to death. So you must purge the evil from among you, and all Israel will hear and be afraid.
