Seeker Overlay ON
*
If any man take a wife ,
and go in unto her ,
and hate her ,
*
And give occasions of speech against her ,
and bring up an evil name upon her ,
and say ,
I took this woman ,
and when I came to her ,
I found her not a maid :
*
Then shall the father of the damsel ,
and her mother ,
take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel '
s virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate :
*
And the damsel '
s father shall say unto the elders ,
I gave my daughter unto this man to wife ,
and he hateth her ;
*
And ,
lo ,
he hath given occasions of speech against her ,
saying ,
I found not thy daughter a maid ;
and yet these are the tokens of my daughter '
s virginity .
And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city .
*
And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him ;
*
And they shall amerce him in an hundred shekels of silver ,
and give them unto the father of the damsel ,
because he hath brought up an evil name upon a virgin of Israel :
and she shall be his wife ;
he may not put her away all his days .
*
But if this thing be true ,
and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel :
*
Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father '
s house ,
and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die :
because she hath wrought folly in Israel ,
to play the whore in her father '
s house :
so shalt thou put evil away from among you .
*
If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband ,
then they shall both of them die ,
both the man that lay with the woman ,
and the woman :
so shalt thou put away evil from Israel .
*
If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband ,
and a man find her in the city ,
and lie with her ;
*
Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city ,
and ye shall stone them with stones that they die ;
the damsel ,
because she cried not ,
being in the city ;
and the man ,
because he hath humbled his neighbour '
s wife :
so thou shalt put away evil from among you .
*
But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field ,
and the man force her ,
and lie with her :
then the man only that lay with her shall die :
*
But unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing ;
there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death :
for as when a man riseth against his neighbour ,
and slayeth him ,
even so is this matter :
*
For he found her in the field ,
and the betrothed damsel cried ,
and there was none to save her .
*
If a man find a damsel that is a virgin ,
which is not betrothed ,
and lay hold on her ,
and lie with her ,
and they be found ;
*
Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel '
s father fifty shekels of silver ,
and she shall be his wife ;
because he hath humbled her ,
he may not put her away all his days .
