You speak a holy word and point (the pointing hand doesn’t need to be empty) at a corpse you can see within range, and the corpse explodes into holy fire. Each creature within 15 feet makes a dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 4d6 radiant damage on a failed saving throw, and half as much on a success. The corpse is destroyed.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot above 1st. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, any creature killed by this spell explodes in the same way with the same amount of damage dice as the original explosion. Additional explosions beyond the first do not trigger this effect, unless you cast the spell at 5th level or higher.
