If the guilty one deserves punishment, the judge will have him prostrate himself before him and lashed as many times as his crime deserves,

And if the wrongdoer is to undergo punishment by whipping, the judge will give orders for him to go down on his face and be whipped before him, the number of the blows being in relation to his crime.
