*
But if the man does not want to take his brother '
s wife ,
then let his brother '
s wife go up to the gate to the elders ,
and say , "
My husband '
s brother refuses to raise up a name to his brother in Israel ;
he will not perform the duty of my husband '
s brother .'
*
Then the elders of his city shall call him and speak to him .
But if he stands firm and says , "
I do not want to take her ,'
*
then his brother '
s wife shall come to him in the presence of the elders ,
remove his sandal from his foot ,
spit in his face ,
and answer and say , "
So shall it be done to the man who will not build up his brother '
s house .'
*
And his name shall be called in Israel , "
The house of him who had his sandal removed .'
