Deuteronomy 22:20-30
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.
