Deuteronomy:21:10-14

*
When thou goest forth to war against thy enemies ,
and the Lord thy God delivereth them into thy hands ,
and thou takest captives of them ;
*
And thou seest among the captives a woman of handsome form ,
and hast a desire unto her ,
that thou wouldst take her to thee for wife :
*
Then shalt thou bring her home to thy house ;
and she shall shave her head ,
and let grow her nails ;
*
And she shall put off the raiment of her captivity from her ,
and she shall remain in thy house ,
and weep for her father and her mother a full month ;
and after that thou mayest go in unto her ,
and be her husband ,
that she may become thy wife .
*
And it shall be ,
if thou have no delight in her ,
then shalt thou let her go whither she will ;
but thou shalt nowise sell her for money ;
thou shalt not make a servant of her ,
because thou hast humbled her .
