Deuteronomy 21:22-23
21st Century King James Version
22 “And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he is to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree,
23 his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day (for he that is hanged is accursed of God), that thy land be not defiled which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
