22:7 [But] thou shalt in any wise {7971} <8763> (853) let the dam {517} go, {7971} <8762> and take {3947} <8799> the young {1121} to thee; that (4616) it may be well {3190} <8799> with thee, and [that] thou mayest prolong {748} <8689> [thy] days. {3117}

22:8 ¶ When (3588) thou buildest {1129} <8799> a new {2319} house, {1004} then thou shalt make {6213} <8804> a battlement {4624} for thy roof, {1406} that thou bring {7760} <8799> not (3808) blood {1818} upon thine house, {1004} if (3588) any man {5307} <8802> fall {5307} <8799> from (4480) thence.

22:9 ¶ Thou shalt not (3808) sow {2232} <8799> thy vineyard {3754} with divers seeds: {3610} lest (6435) the fruit {4395} of thy seed {2233} which (834) thou hast sown, {2232} <8799> and the fruit {8393} of thy vineyard, {3754} be defiled. {6942} <8799>

22:10 ¶ Thou shalt not (3808) plow {2790} <8799> with an ox {7794} and an ass {2543} together. {3162}

22:13 ¶ If (3588) any man {376} take {3947} <8799> a wife, {802} and go in {935} <8804> unto (413) her, and hate {8130} <8804> her,

22:14 And give {7760} <8804> occasions {5949} of speech {1697} against her, and bring up {3318} <8689> an evil {7451} name {8034} upon (5921) her, and say, {559} <8804> I took {3947} <8804> (853) this (2063) woman, {802} and when I came {7126} <8799> to (413) her, I found {4672} <8804> her not (3808) a maid: {1331}

22:15 Then shall the father {1} of the damsel, {5291} and her mother, {517} take {3947} <8804> and bring forth {3318} <8689> (853) [the tokens of] the damsel's {5291} virginity {1331} unto (413) the elders {2205} of the city {5892} in the gate: {8179}

22:16 And the damsel's {5291} father {1} shall say {559} <8804> unto (413) the elders, {2205} I gave {5414} <8804> (853) my daughter {1323} unto this (2088) man {376} to wife, {802} and he hateth {8130} <8799> her;

22:17 And, lo, (2009) he (1931) hath given {7760} <8804> occasions {5949} of speech {1697} [against her], saying, {559} <8800> I found {4672} <8804> not (3808) thy daughter {1323} a maid; {1331} and yet these (428) [are the tokens of] my daughter's {1323} virginity. {1331} And they shall spread {6566} <8804> the cloth {8071} before {6440} the elders {2205} of the city. {5892}

22:18 And the elders {2205} of that (1931) city {5892} shall take {3947} <8804> (853) that man {376} and chastise {3256} <8765> him;

22:19 And they shall amerce {6064} <8804> him in an hundred {3967} [shekels] of silver, {3701} and give {5414} <8804> [them] unto the father {1} of the damsel, {5291} because (3588) he hath brought up {3318} <8689> an evil {7451} name {8034} upon (5921) a virgin {1330} of Israel: {3478} and she shall be (1961) his wife; {802} he may {3201} <8799> not (3808) put her away {7971} <8763> all (3605) his days. {3117}

22:20 But if (518) this (2088) thing {1697} be (1961) true, {571} [and the tokens of] virginity {1331} be not (3808) found {4672} <8738> for the damsel: {5291}

22:21 Then they shall bring out {3318} <8689> (853) the damsel {5291} to (413) the door {6607} of her father's {1} house, {1004} and the men [582] (376) of her city {5892} shall stone {5619} <8804> her with stones {68} that she die: {4191} <8804> because (3588) she hath wrought {6213} <8804> folly {5039} in Israel, {3478} to play the whore {2181} <8800> in her father's {1} house: {1004} so shalt thou put [1197] <0> evil [7451] away {1197} <8765> (7451) from among {7130} (4480) you.

22:22 ¶ If (3588) a man {376} be found {4672} <8735> lying {7901} <8802> with (5973) a woman {802} married {1166} <8803> to an husband, {1167} then they shall both (1571) (8147) of them [8147] die, {4191} <8804> [both] the man {376} that lay {7901} <8802> with (5973) the woman, {802} and the woman: {802} so shalt thou put away {1197} <8765> evil {7451} from Israel. {3478} (4480)

22:23 ¶ If (3588) a damsel {5291} [that is] a virgin {1330} be (1961) betrothed {781} <8794> unto an husband, {376} and a man {376} find {4672} <8804> her in the city, {5892} and lie {7901} <8804> with (5973) her;

22:24 Then ye shall bring [3318] <8689> them both [8147] out (3318) (853) (8147) unto (413) the gate {8179} of that (1931) city, {5892} and ye shall stone {5619} <8804> them with stones {68} that they die; {4191} <8804> (853) the damsel, {5291} because {834} {1697} (5921) she cried {6817} <8804> not, (3808) [being] in the city; {5892} and the man, {376} because {834} {1697} (5921) he hath humbled {6031} <8765> (853) his neighbour's {7453} wife: {802} so thou shalt put away {1197} <8765> evil {7451} from among {7130} (4480) you.

22:25 ¶ But if (518) a man {376} find {4672} <8799> (853) a betrothed {781} <8794> damsel {5291} in the field, {7704} and the man {376} force {2388} <8689> her, and lie {7901} <8804> with (5973) her: then the man {376} only (905) that (834) lay {7901} <8804> with (5973) her shall die: {4191} <8804>

22:26 But unto the damsel {5291} thou shalt do {6213} <8799> nothing; {1697} (3808) [there is] in the damsel {5291} no (369) sin {2399} [worthy] of death: {4194} for (3588) as (834) when a man {376} riseth {6965} <8799> against (5921) his neighbour, {7453} and slayeth {7523} {5315} <8804> q8676- him, even so (3651) [is] this (2088) matter: {1697}

22:27 For (3588) he found {4672} <8804> her in the field, {7704} [and] the betrothed {781} <8794> damsel {5291} cried, {6817} <8804> and [there was] none (369) to save {3467} <8688> her.

22:28 ¶ If (3588) a man {376} find {4672} <8799> a damsel {5291} [that is] a virgin, {1330} which (834) is not (3808) betrothed, {781} <8795> and lay hold {8610} <8804> on her, and lie {7901} <8804> with (5973) her, and they be found; {4672} <8738>

22:29 Then the man {376} that lay {7901} <8802> with (5973) her shall give {5414} <8804> unto the damsel's {5291} father {1} fifty {2572} [shekels] of silver, {3701} and she shall be (1961) his wife; {802} because (8478) (834) he hath humbled {6031} <8765> her, he may {3201} <8799> not (3808) put her away {7971} <8763> all (3605) his days. {3117}

22:30 ¶ A man {376} shall not (3808) take {3947} <8799> (853) his father's {1} wife, {802} nor (3808) discover {1540} <8762> his father's {1} skirt. {3671}
