Deuteronomy 19

¹⁵ A lone witness is not sufficient to establish any wrongdoing or sin against a man, regardless of what offense he may have committed. A matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.

¹⁶ If a false witness testifies against someone, accusing him of a crime,

¹⁷ both parties to the dispute must stand in the presence of the LORD, before the priests and judges who are in office at that time.
