Deuteronomy 22:17-21

17and behold, he charges her with thingsH1697 for scandalous talk, sayingH559, I foundH4672 not thy daughterH1323 a virgin; and hereH2009 are the tokens of my daughter's virginityH1331. And they shall spreadH6566 the clothH8071 before the eldersH2205 of the cityH5892.

18And the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892 shall takeH3947 the manH376 and chastise him;

19and they shall fine him a hundredH3967 shekels of silverH3701, and giveH5414 them unto the fatherH1 of the damsel, because he hath caused an evilH7451 nameH8034 to beH1961 spread abroad against a virginH1330 in IsraelH3478. And she shall remain his wifeH802: he may not putH5414 her awayH7971 all his daysH3117.

20But if this thingH1697 is true, [and] virginityH1331 hath not beenH1961 foundH4672 with the damsel;

21then they shall bringH3318 out the damsel unto the entranceH6607 of her father's houseH1004, and the menH376 of her cityH5892 shall stoneH68 her with stonesH68 that she dieH4191: because she hath wrought infamy in IsraelH3478, committing fornication in her father's houseH1004; and thou shalt putH4191 evilH7451 away from thy midstH7130.
