DE-22:1 Thou shalt not see thy brother's ox or his sheep go
astray, and hide
thyself from them: thou shalt in any case bring them again unto
thy brother.
DE-22:2 And if thy brother [be] not nigh unto thee, or if thou
know him not,
then thou shalt bring it unto thine own house, and it shall be
with thee until
thy brother seek after it, and thou shalt restore it to him
again.
DE-22:3 In like manner shalt thou do with his ass; and so shalt
thou do with
his raiment; and with all lost thing of thy brother's, which he
hath lost, and
thou hast found, shalt thou do likewise: thou mayest not hide
thyself.
DE-22:4 Thou shalt not see thy brother's ass or his ox fall
down by the way,
and hide thyself from them: thou shalt surely help him to lift
[them] up
again.
DE-22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a
man, neither
shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so [are]
abomination
unto the LORD thy God.
DE-22:6 If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way in
any tree, or
on the ground, [whether they be] young ones, or eggs, and the
dam sitting upon
the young, or upon the eggs, thou shalt not take the dam with
the young:
DE-22:7 [But] thou shalt in any wise let the dam go, and take
the young to
thee; that it may be well with thee, and [that] thou mayest
prolong [thy]
days.
DE-22:8 When thou buildest a new house, then thou shalt make a
battlement for
thy roof, that thou bring not blood upon thine house, if any man
fall from
thence.
DE-22:9 Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest
the fruit of
thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard, be
defiled.
DE-22:10 Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together.
DE-22:11 Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, [as] of
woollen and
linen together.
DE-22:12 Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of
thy vesture,
wherewith thou coverest [thyself].
DE-22:13 If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate
her,
DE-22:14 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:
DE-22:15 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:
DE-22:16 And the damsel's father shall say unto the elders, I
gave my
daughter unto this man to wife, and he hateth her;
DE-22:17 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.
DE-22:18 And the elders of that city shall take that man and
chastise him;
DE-22:19 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.
DE-22:20 But if this thing be true, [and the tokens of]
virginity be not
found for the damsel:
DE-22:21 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.
DE-22:22 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.
DE-22:23 If a damsel [that is] a virgin be betrothed unto an
husband, and a
man find her in the city, and lie with her;
DE-22:24 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.
DE-22:25 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:
DE-22:26 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:
DE-22:27 For he found her in the field, [and] the betrothed
damsel cried, and
[there was] none to save her.
DE-22:28 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;
DE-22:29 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.
DE-22:30 A man shall not take his father's wife, nor discover
his father's
skirt.
