36. So the people took the man outside the camp. There they killed him by throwing stones at him. They did just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

37. The Lord said to Moses,

38. "Speak to the people of Israel. Say to them, 'You must make tassels on the corners of your clothes. A blue cord must be on each tassel. You must do it for all time to come.

39. You will have the tassels to look at. They will remind you to obey all of the Lord's commands. Then you will be faithful to him. You will not go after what your own hearts and eyes long for.

40. " 'You will remember to obey all of my commands. And you will be set apart for your God.
