10“WhenH3588 you goH3318 out to battleH4421 againstH5921 your enemiesH340, and 1the LordH3068 your GodH430 deliversH5414 them into your handsH3027 and you takeH7617 them away captiveH7628, 11and seeH7200 among the captivesH7633 a beautifulH3303 womanH802, and haveH2836 a desireH2836 for her and would takeH3947 her as a wifeH802 for yourself, 12then you shall bringH935 her homeH8432 to your houseH1004, and she shall 2shaveH1548 her headH7218 and 3trimH6213 her nailsH6856. 13She shall also 4removeH5493 the clothesH8071 of her captivityH7628 and shall remainH3427 in your houseH1004, and 5mournH1058 her fatherH1 and motherH517 a fullH3117 monthH3391; and afterH310 that you may goH935 in to her and be her husbandH1166 and she shall be your wifeH802. 14It shall be, ifH518 you are not pleasedH2654 with her, then you shall letH7971 her goH7971 6wherever she wishesH5315; but you shall certainlyH4376 not sellH4376 her for moneyH3701, you shall not 7mistreatH6014 her, becauseH8478H834 you have 8humbledH6031 her.
15“IfH3588 a manH376 hasH1961 twoH8147 wivesH802, the oneH259 lovedH157 and 9the otherH259 10unlovedH8130, and both the lovedH157 and the 11unlovedH8130 have borneH3205 him sonsH1121, if the firstbornH1060 sonH1121 belongs to the 12unlovedH8146, 16then it shall be in the dayH3117 he 13willsH5157 whatH834 he hasH1961 to his sonsH1121, he cannotH3201H3808 makeH1069 the sonH1121 of the lovedH157 the firstbornH1069 beforeH5921H6440 the sonH1121 of the 14unlovedH8130, who is the firstbornH1060. 17But he shall acknowledgeH5234 the firstbornH1060, the sonH1121 of the 15unlovedH8130, by givingH5414 him a doubleH8147 portionH6310 of allH3605 that 16he hasH4672, for he is the 17beginningH7225 of his strengthH202; 18to him belongs the rightH4941 of the firstbornH1060.
