Deuteronomy 21:22-23

International Children’s Bible

Other Laws

²² A man might be guilty of a sin worthy of death. He must be put to death and his body displayed on a tree. ²³ But don’t leave his body hanging on the tree overnight. Be sure to bury him that same day. Anyone whose body is displayed on a tree is cursed by God. You must not ruin the land the Lord your God is giving you to own.
