Deuteronomy 22:1-18

1If you seeH7200 your brother’sH251 oxH7794 orH176 sheepH7716 strayingH5080, you must notH3808 ignore itH5956;1 be sure to return itH7725 to your brotherH251. 2IfH518 your brotherH251 does notH3808 live near youH7138, or if you do notH3808 know who he isH3045, you are to takeH622H413 the animalH413H8432 homeH1004 to remainH1961 with youH5973 untilH5704 your brotherH251 comes seeking itH1875; then you can return itH7725 to him. 3And you shall doH6213 the sameH3651 for his donkeyH2543H3651H6213, his cloakH8071H3651H6213, or anythingH3605 your brotherH251 has lostH9 and you have foundH4672. You mustH3201 notH3808 ignore itH5956.

4If you seeH7200 your brother’sH251 donkeyH2543 orH176 oxH7794 fallenH5307 on the roadH1870, you must notH3808 ignore itH5956; you must help him lift it upH6965H5973.

5A womanH802 must notH3808 wearH1961H5921 men’sH1397 clothingH3627, and a manH1397 must notH3808 wearH3847 women’sH802 clothingH8071, forH3588 whoeverH3605 doesH6213 these thingsH428 is detestableH8441 to the LORDH3068 your GodH430.

6IfH3588 you come acrossH7122 a bird’sH6833H6440 nestH7064 with chicksH667 orH176 eggsH1000, either in a treeH6086 orH176 onH5921 the groundH776 along the roadH1870H3605, and the motherH517 is sittingH7257 onH5921 the chicksH667 orH176 eggsH1000, you must notH3808 takeH3947 the motherH517H5921 along withH5921 the youngH1121. 7You may takeH3947 the youngH1121, but be sure to let the motherH517 goH7971, so thatH4616 it may be wellH3190 with you and that you may prolongH748 your daysH3117.

8IfH3588 you buildH1129 a newH2319 houseH1004, you are to constructH6213 a railingH4624 around your roofH1406, so that you do notH3808 bringH7760 bloodguiltH1818 on your houseH1004 ifH3588 someone fallsH5307 from itH4480.

9Do notH3808 plantH2232 your vineyardH3754 with two types of seedH3610; if you doH6435, the entire harvestH4395 will be defiledH69422—both the cropH2233 you plantH2232 and the fruitH8393 of your vineyardH3754.

10Do notH3808 plowH2790 with an oxH7794 and a donkeyH2543 yoked togetherH3162.

11Do notH3808 wearH3847 clothesH8162 of woolH6785 and linenH6593 woven togetherH3162.

12You are to makeH6213 tasselsH1434 onH5921 the fourH702 cornersH3671 of the cloakH3682 you wearH3680.

13SupposeH3588 a manH376 marriesH3947 a womanH802, has relations withH935 herH413, and comes to hate herH8130, 14and he then accusesH7760 her of shameful conductH5949H1697 and gives herH3318H5921 a badH7451 nameH8034, sayingH559, “I marriedH3947 thisH2063 womanH802 and had relations withH7126 herH413, but I discoveredH4672 she was notH3808 a virginH1331.”

15Then the young woman’sH5291 fatherH1 and motherH517 shall bringH3318 the proof of herH5291 virginityH1331 toH413 the cityH5892 eldersH2205 at the gateH8179 16and sayH559 toH413 the eldersH2205, “I gaveH5414 my daughterH1323 in marriageH802 to thisH2088 manH376, but he has come to hate herH8130. 17And nowH2009 heH1931 has accused herH7760 of shameful conductH5949H1697, sayingH559, ‘I discovered thatH4672 your daughterH1323 was notH3808 a virginH1331.’ But here is the proofH428 ofH1323 her virginityH1331.” And they shall spread outH6566 the clothH8071 beforeH6440 the cityH5892 eldersH2205.

18Then the eldersH2205 of thatH1931 cityH5892 shall takeH3947 the manH376 and punish himH3256.
