Deuteronomy 22

Revised Version 1895

1Thou shalt notH3808 seeH7200 thy brother’sH251 oxH7794 or his sheepH7716 goH7725 astrayH5080, and hideH5956 thyself from them: thou shalt surelyH7725 bringH7725 them againH7725 unto thy brotherH251. 2And ifH518 thy brotherH251 be notH3808 nigh unto thee, or ifH518 thou knowH3045 him notH3808, then thou shalt bringH7725 it homeH1004 to thine houseH1004, and it shall be with thee untilH5704 thy brotherH251 seekH1875 afterH1961 it, and thou shalt restoreH7725 it to him againH7725. 3And soH3651 shalt thou doH6213 with his ass; and soH3651 shalt thou doH6213 with his garmentH8071; and soH3651 shalt thou doH6213 with everyH3605 lostH6 thingH3651 of thy brother’sH251, whichH834 he hath lostH6, and thou hast foundH4672: thou mayest notH3808 hideH5956 thyself. 4Thou shalt notH3808 seeH7200 thy brother’sH251 ass or his oxH7794 fallenH5307 downH5307 by the wayH1870, and hideH5956 thyself from them: thou shalt surelyH6965 helpH6965 him to liftH6965 them upH6965 againH6965. 5A womanH802 shall notH3808 wearH3847 that whichH428 pertaineth unto a manH1397, neitherH3808 shall a manH1397 putH3847 on a woman’sH802 garmentH8071: for whosoever doeth theseH428 things is an abominationH8441 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430. 6IfH3588 a bird’sH6833 nestH7064 chanceH7122 to be beforeH6440 thee in the wayH1870, in anyH3605 treeH6086 or on the groundH776, with youngH1121 onesH667 or eggsH1000, and the dam sittingH7257 uponH5921 the youngH1121, or uponH5921 the eggsH1000, thou shalt notH3808 takeH3947 the dam with the youngH1121: 7thou shalt in any wise letH7971 the dam goH7971, but the youngH1121 thou mayest takeH3947 unto thyself; that it may be wellH3190 with thee, and that thou mayest prolongH748 thy daysH3117. 8When thou buildest a newH2319 houseH1004, then thou shalt makeH7760 a battlement for thy roofH1406, that thou bringH7760 notH3808 bloodH1818 uponH5307 thine houseH1004, ifH3588 anyH4480 man fallH5307 from thence. 9Thou shalt notH3808 sowH2232 thy vineyardH3754 with twoH3610 kindsH3610 of seedH2233: lestH6435 the whole fruit be forfeited, the seedH2233 whichH834 thou hast sownH2232, and the increaseH8393 of the vineyardH3754. 10Thou shalt notH3808 plowH2790 with an oxH7794 and an ass togetherH3162. 11Thou shalt notH3808 wearH3847 a mingled stuff, woolH6785 and linenH6593 togetherH3162. 12Thou shalt makeH6213 thee fringes uponH5921 the fourH702 borders of thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself. 13IfH3588 anyH376 manH376 takeH3947 a wifeH802, and goH935 in unto herH413, and hateH8130 herH413, 14and layH7760 shamefulH5949 things to herH413 chargeH5921, and bringH3318 upH5921 an evilH7451 nameH8034 uponH5921 herH413, and sayH559, I tookH3947 this womanH802, and when I cameH3318 nigh to herH413, I foundH4672 notH3808 in herH413 the tokens of virginityH1331: 15then shall the fatherH1 of the damsel, and herH413 motherH517, takeH3947 and bringH3318 forthH3318 the tokens of the damsel’s virginityH1331 unto the eldersH2205 of the cityH5892 in the gateH8179: 16and the damsel’s fatherH1 shall sayH559 unto the eldersH2205, I gaveH5414 my daughterH1323 unto this manH376 to wifeH802, and he hateth herH413; 17and, loH2009, he hath laidH7760 shamefulH5949 things to herH559 chargeH1697, sayingH559, I foundH4672 notH3808 in thy daughterH1323 the tokens of virginityH1331; and yet theseH428 are the tokens of my daughter’sH1323 virginityH1331. And they shall spreadH6566 the garmentH8071 beforeH6440 the eldersH2205 of the cityH5892. 18And the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892 shall takeH3947 the manH376 and chastiseH3256 him; 19and they shall amerce him in an hundredH3967 shekelsH3701 of silverH3701, and giveH5414 them unto the fatherH1 of the damsel, becauseH3588 he hath broughtH3318 upH5921 an evilH7451 nameH8034 uponH5921 a virginH1330 of IsraelH3478: and sheH3588 shall be his wifeH802; he may notH3808 putH5414 herH3605 awayH7971 allH3605 his daysH3117. 20But ifH518 this thingH1697 be trueH571, that the tokens of virginityH1331 were notH3808 foundH4672 in the damsel: 21then they shall bringH3318 outH3318 the damsel to the doorH6607 of herH413 father’sH1 houseH1004, and the menH376 of herH413 cityH5892 shall stoneH68 herH413 with stonesH68 that sheH3588 dieH4191: becauseH3588 sheH3588 hath wrought follyH5039 in IsraelH3478, to playH2181 the harlotH2181 in herH413 father’sH1 houseH1004: soH6213 shalt thou putH4191 awayH3318 the evilH7451 from the midstH7130 of thee. 22IfH3588 a manH376 be foundH4672 lyingH7901 with a womanH802 marriedH802 to an husbandH376, then they shall bothH8147 of them dieH4191, the manH376 that layH7901 with the womanH802, and the womanH802: soH1571 shalt thou putH4191 awayH5973 the evilH7451 from IsraelH3478. 23IfH3588 there be a damsel that is a virginH1330 betrothedH781 unto an husbandH376, and a manH376 findH4672 herH1961 in the cityH5892, and lieH7901 with herH1961; 24then ye shall bringH3318 them bothH8147 outH3318 unto the gateH8179 of that cityH5892, and ye shall stoneH68 them with stonesH68 that they dieH4191; the damsel, becauseH5921 sheH1931 criedH6817 notH3808, being in the cityH5892; and the manH376, becauseH5921 he hath humbled his neighbour’s wifeH802: soH3808 thou shalt putH4191 awayH3318 the evilH7451 from the midstH7130 of thee. 25But ifH518 the manH376 findH4672 the damsel that is betrothedH781 in the fieldH7704, and the manH376 force herH518, and lieH7901 with herH518; then the manH376 onlyH905 that layH7901 with herH518 shall dieH4191: 26but unto the damsel thou shalt doH6213 nothingH3808; there is in the damsel noH3808 sinH2399 worthy of deathH4194: for as when a manH376 riseth againstH5921 his neighbour, and slayeth him, evenH3588 soH3651 is this matterH1697: 27for he foundH4672 herH3588 in the fieldH7704; the betrothedH781 damsel criedH6817, and there was noneH369 to saveH3467 herH3588. 28IfH3588 a manH376 findH4672 a damsel that is a virginH1330, whichH834 is notH3808 betrothedH781, and layH7901 holdH8610 on herH3588, and lieH7901 with herH3588, and they be foundH4672; 29then the manH376 that layH7901 with herH3605 shall giveH5414 unto the damsel’s fatherH1 fiftyH2572 shekelsH3701 of silverH3701, and sheH834 shall be his wifeH802, becauseH834 he hath humbled herH3605; he may notH3808 putH5414 herH3605 awayH7971 allH3605 his daysH3117. 30A man shall not take his father’s wife, and shall not uncover his father’s skirt.
