Deuteronomy 22:17-21

17And, lo, he hath givenH7760 occasionsH5949 of speechH1697 against her, sayingH559, I foundH4672 not thy daughterH1323 a maidH1331; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter’sH1323 virginityH1331. And they shall spreadH6566 the clothH8071 beforeH6440 the eldersH2205 of the cityH5892.

18And the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892 shall takeH3947 that manH376 and chastiseH3256 him;

19And they shall amerceH6064 him in an hundredH3967 shekels of silverH3701, and giveH5414 them unto the fatherH1 of the damselH5291, because he hath brought upH3318 an evilH7451 nameH8034 upon a virginH1330 of IsraelH3478: and she shall be his wifeH802; he mayH3201 not put her awayH7971 all his daysH3117.

20But if this thingH1697 be trueH571, and the tokens of virginityH1331 be not foundH4672 for the damselH5291:

21Then they shall bring outH3318 the damselH5291 to the doorH6607 of her father’sH1 houseH1004, and the menH582 of her cityH5892 shall stoneH5619 her with stonesH68 that she dieH4191: because she hath wroughtH6213 follyH5039 in IsraelH3478, to play the whoreH2181 in her father’sH1 houseH1004: so shalt thou putH1197 evilH7451 awayH1197 from amongH7130 you.
