New International Version

Deuteronomy 25:5-6

5If brothers are living together and one of them dies without a son, his widow must not marry outside the family. Her husband’s brother shall take her and marry her and fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law to her.

6The first son she bears shall carry on the name of the dead brother so that his name will not be blotted out from Israel.
