 15:1  At the end of [every] seven years thou shalt make a
release.
 15:2  And this [is] the manner of the release: Every creditor
that lendeth [ought] unto his neighbour shall release [it]; he
shall not exact [it] of his neighbour, or of his brother;
because it is called the LORD'S release.
 15:3  Of a foreigner thou mayest exact [it again]: but [that]
which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;
 15:4  Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD
shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee [for] an inheritance to possess it:
 15:5  Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the
LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I
command thee this day.
 15:6  For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee:
and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not
borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall
not reign over thee.
 15:7  If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren
within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine
hand from thy poor brother:
 15:8  But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt
surely lend him sufficient for his need, [in that] which he
wanteth.
 15:9  Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart,
saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and
thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him
nought; and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be sin
unto thee.
 15:10  Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not
be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this
thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and
in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.
 15:11  For the poor shall never cease out of the land:
therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand
wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy
land.
 15:12  [And] if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew
woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the
seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
 15:13  And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou
shalt not let him go away empty:
 15:14  Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and
out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: [of that] wherewith
the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.
 15:15  And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the
land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I
command thee this thing to day.
 15:16  And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go
away from thee; because he loveth thee and thine house, because
he is well with thee;
 15:17  Then thou shalt take an awl, and thrust [it] through
his ear unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever.
And also unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise.
 15:18  It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou sendest him
away free from thee; for he hath been worth a double hired
servant [to thee], in serving thee six years: and the LORD thy
God shall bless thee in all that thou doest.
 15:19  All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of
thy flock thou shalt sanctify unto the LORD thy God: thou shalt
do no work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the
firstling of thy sheep.
 15:20  Thou shalt eat [it] before the LORD thy God year by
year in the place which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy
household.
 15:21  And if there be [any] blemish therein, [as if it be]
lame, or blind, [or have] any ill blemish, thou shalt not
sacrifice it unto the LORD thy God.
 15:22  Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the
clean [person shall eat it] alike, as the roebuck, and as the
hart.
 15:23  Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt
pour it upon the ground as water.
 16:1  Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto
the LORD thy God: for in the month of Abib the LORD thy God
brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
 16:2  Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the passover unto the
LORD thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the
LORD shall choose to place his name there.
 16:3  Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days
shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, [even] the bread of
affliction: for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in
haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth
out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.
 16:4  And there shall be no leavened bread seen with thee in
all thy coast seven days; neither shall there [any thing] of
the flesh, which thou sacrificedst the first day at even,
remain all night until the morning.
 16:5  Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy
gates, which the LORD thy God giveth thee:
 16:6  But at the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to
place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at
even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou
camest forth out of Egypt.
 16:7  And thou shalt roast and eat [it] in the place which the
LORD thy God shall choose: and thou shalt turn in the morning,
and go unto thy tents.
 16:8  Six days thou shalt eat unleavened bread: and on the
seventh day [shall be] a solemn assembly to the LORD thy God:
thou shalt do no work [therein].
 16:9  Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: begin to number
the seven weeks from [such time as] thou beginnest [to put] the
sickle to the corn.
 16:10  And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto the LORD
thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering of thine hand,
which thou shalt give [unto the LORD thy God], according as the
LORD thy God hath blessed thee:
 16:11  And thou shalt rejoice before the LORD thy God, thou,
and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy
maidservant, and the Levite that [is] within thy gates, and the
stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that [are] among
you, in the place which the LORD thy God hath chosen to place
his name there.
 16:12  And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in
Egypt: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.
 16:13  Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days,
after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine:
 16:14  And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son,
and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and
the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow,
that [are] within thy gates.
 16:15  Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto the LORD
thy God in the place which the LORD shall choose: because the
LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase, and in all
the works of thine hands, therefore thou shalt surely rejoice.
 16:16  Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before
the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose; in the
feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in
the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the
LORD empty:
 16:17  Every man [shall give] as he is able, according to the
blessing of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee.
 16:18  Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy
gates, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, throughout thy
tribes: and they shall judge the people with just judgment.
 16:19  Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect
persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of
the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.
 16:20  That which is altogether just shalt thou follow, that
thou mayest live, and inherit the land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee.
 16:21  Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near
unto the altar of the LORD thy God, which thou shalt make thee.
 16:22  Neither shalt thou set thee up [any] image; which the
LORD thy God hateth.
 17:1  Thou shalt not sacrifice unto the LORD thy God [any]
bullock, or sheep, wherein is blemish, [or] any
evilfavouredness: for that [is] an abomination unto the LORD
thy God.
 17:2  If there be found among you, within any of thy gates
which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath
wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in
transgressing his covenant,
 17:3  And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped
them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven,
which I have not commanded;
 17:4  And it be told thee, and thou hast heard [of it], and
inquired diligently, and, behold, [it be] true, [and] the thing
certain, [that] such abomination is wrought in Israel:
 17:5  Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman,
which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, [even]
that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till
they die.
 17:6  At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall
he that is worthy of death be put to death; [but] at the mouth
of one witness he shall not be put to death.
 17:7  The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to
put him to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So
thou shalt put the evil away from among you.
 17:8  If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment,
between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between
stroke and stroke, [being] matters of controversy within thy
gates: then shalt thou arise, and get thee up into the place
which the LORD thy God shall choose;
 17:9  And thou shalt come unto the priests the Levites, and
unto the judge that shall be in those days, and inquire; and
they shall show thee the sentence of judgment:
 17:10  And thou shalt do according to the sentence, which they
of that place which the LORD shall choose shall show thee; and
thou shalt observe to do according to all that they inform
thee:
 17:11  According to the sentence of the law which they shall
teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell
thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the sentence
which they shall show thee, [to] the right hand, nor [to] the
left.
 17:12  And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not
hearken unto the priest that standeth to minister there before
the LORD thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die:
and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.
 17:13  And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more
presumptuously.
 17:14  When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and
shalt say, I will set a king over me, like as all the nations
that [are] about me;
 17:15  Thou shalt in any wise set [him] king over thee, whom
the LORD thy God shall choose: [one] from among thy brethren
shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger
over thee, which [is] not thy brother.
 17:16  But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause
the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should
multiply horses: forasmuch as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye
shall henceforth return no more that way.
 17:17  Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his
heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to
himself silver and gold.
 17:18  And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his
kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book
out of [that which is] before the priests the Levites:
 17:19  And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all
the days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD his
God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to
do them:
 17:20  That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and
that he turn not aside from the commandment, [to] the right
hand, or [to] the left: to the end that he may prolong [his]
days in his kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of
Israel.
 18:1  The priests the Levites, [and] all the tribe of Levi,
shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat
the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and his inheritance.
 18:2  Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their
brethren: the LORD [is] their inheritance, as he hath said unto
them.
 18:3  And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from
them that offer a sacrifice, whether [it be] ox or sheep; and
they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the two
cheeks, and the maw.
 18:4  The firstfruit [also] of thy corn, of thy wine, and of
thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy sheep, shalt thou
give him.
 18:5  For the LORD thy God hath chosen him out of all thy
tribes, to stand to minister in the name of the LORD, him and
his sons for ever.
 18:6  And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all
Israel, where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his
mind unto the place which the LORD shall choose;
 18:7  Then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God,
as all his brethren the Levites [do], which stand there before
the LORD.
 18:8  They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which
cometh of the sale of his patrimony.
 18:9  When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations
of those nations.
 18:10  There shall not be found among you [any one] that
maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, [or]
that useth divination, [or] an observer of times, or an
enchanter, or a witch,
 18:11  Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or
a wizard, or a necromancer.
 18:12  For all that do these things [are] an abomination unto
the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God
doth drive them out from before thee.
 18:13  Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.
 18:14  For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened
unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee,
the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so [to do].
 18:15  The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from
the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye
shall hearken;
 18:16  According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy
God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not
hear again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see
this great fire any more, that I die not.
 18:17  And the LORD said unto me, They have well [spoken that]
which they have spoken.
 18:18  I will raise them up a Prophet from among their
brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth;
and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
 18:19  And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever will not
hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will
require [it] of him.
 18:20  But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in
my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall
speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
 18:21  And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the
word which the LORD hath not spoken?
 18:22  When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the
thing follow not, nor come to pass, that [is] the thing which
the LORD hath not spoken, [but] the prophet hath spoken it
presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
 19:1  When the LORD thy God hath cut off the nations, whose
land the LORD thy God giveth thee, and thou succeedest them,
and dwellest in their cities, and in their houses;
 19:2  Thou shalt separate three cities for thee in the midst
of thy land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it.
 19:3  Thou shalt prepare thee a way, and divide the coasts of
thy land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to inherit, into
three parts, that every slayer may flee thither.
 19:4  And this [is] the case of the slayer, which shall flee
thither, that he may live: Whoso killeth his neighbour
ignorantly, whom he hated not in time past;
 19:5  As when a man goeth into the wood with his neighbour to
hew wood, and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the ax to cut
down the tree, and the head slippeth from the helve, and
lighteth upon his neighbour, that he die; he shall flee unto
one of those cities, and live:
 19:6  Lest the avenger of the blood pursue the slayer, while
his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long,
and slay him; whereas he [was] not worthy of death, inasmuch as
he hated him not in time past.
 19:7  Wherefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt separate
three cities for thee.
 19:8  And if the LORD thy God enlarge thy coast, as he hath
sworn unto thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he
promised to give unto thy fathers;
 19:9  If thou shalt keep all these commandments to do them,
which I command thee this day, to love the LORD thy God, and to
walk ever in his ways; then shalt thou add three cities more
for thee, beside these three:
 19:10  That innocent blood be not shed in thy land, which the
LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance, and [so] blood
be upon thee.
 19:11  But if any man hate his neighbour, and lie in wait for
him, and rise up against him, and smite him mortally that he
die, and fleeth into one of these cities:
 19:12  Then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him
thence, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood,
that he may die.
 19:13  Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shalt put away
[the guilt of] innocent blood from Israel, that it may go well
with thee.
 19:14  Thou shalt not remove thy neighbour's landmark, which
they of old time have set in thine inheritance, which thou
shalt inherit in the land that the LORD thy God giveth thee to
possess it.
 19:15  One witness shall not rise up against a man for any
iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the
mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses,
shall the matter be established.
 19:16  If a false witness rise up against any man to testify
against him [that which is] wrong;
 19:17  Then both the men, between whom the controversy [is],
shall stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges,
which shall be in those days;
 19:18  And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and,
behold, [if] the witness [be] a false witness, [and] hath
testified falsely against his brother;
 19:19  Then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to have
done unto his brother: so shalt thou put the evil away from
among you.
 19:20  And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall
henceforth commit no more any such evil among you.
 19:21  And thine eye shall not pity; [but] life [shall go] for
life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for
foot.
 20:1  When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and
seest horses, and chariots, [and] a people more than thou, be
not afraid of them: for the LORD thy God [is] with thee, which
brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
 20:2  And it shall be, when ye are come nigh unto the battle,
that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people,
 20:3  And shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach
this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts
faint, fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified
because of them;
 20:4  For the LORD your God [is] he that goeth with you, to
fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
 20:5  And the officers shall speak unto the people, saying,
What man [is there] that hath built a new house, and hath not
dedicated it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die
in the battle, and another man dedicate it.
 20:6  And what man [is he] that hath planted a vineyard, and
hath not [yet] eaten of it? let him [also] go and return unto
his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man eat of
it.
 20:7  And what man [is there] that hath betrothed a wife, and
hath not taken her? let him go and return unto his house, lest
he die in the battle, and another man take her.
 20:8  And the officers shall speak further unto the people,
and they shall say, What man [is there that is] fearful and
fainthearted? let him go and return unto his house, lest his
brethren's heart faint as well as his heart.
 20:9  And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of
speaking unto the people, that they shall make captains of the
armies to lead the people.
 20:10  When thou comest nigh unto a city to fight against it,
then proclaim peace unto it.
 20:11  And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace, and
open unto thee, then it shall be, [that] all the people [that
is] found therein shall be tributaries unto thee, and they
shall serve thee.
 20:12  And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make
war against thee, then thou shalt besiege it:
 20:13  And when the LORD thy God hath delivered it into thine
hands, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the
sword:
 20:14  But the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and
all that is in the city, [even] all the spoil thereof, shalt
thou take unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine
enemies, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.
 20:15  Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities [which are] very
far off from thee, which [are] not of the cities of these
nations.
 20:16  But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy
God doth give thee [for] an inheritance, thou shalt save alive
nothing that breatheth:
 20:17  But thou shalt utterly destroy them; [namely], the
Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites,
the Hivites, and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath
commanded thee:
 20:18  That they teach you not to do after all their
abominations, which they have done unto their gods; so should
ye sin against the LORD your God.
 20:19  When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making
war against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees
thereof by forcing an ax against them: for thou mayest eat of
them, and thou shalt not cut them down (for the tree of the
field [is] man's [life]) to employ [them] in the siege:
 20:20  Only the trees which thou knowest that they [be] not
trees for meat, thou shalt destroy and cut them down; and thou
shalt build bulwarks against the city that maketh war with
thee, until it be subdued.
 21:1  If [one] be found slain in the land which the LORD thy
God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, [and] it be
not known who hath slain him:
 21:2  Then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and
they shall measure unto the cities which [are] round about him
that is slain:
 21:3  And it shall be, [that] the city [which is] next unto
the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take an
heifer, which hath not been wrought with, [and] which hath not
drawn in the yoke;
 21:4  And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer
unto a rough valley, which is neither eared nor sown, and shall
strike off the heifer's neck there in the valley:
 21:5  And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for
them the LORD thy God hath chosen to minister unto him, and to
bless in the name of the LORD; and by their word shall every
controversy and every stroke be [tried]:
 21:6  And all the elders of that city, [that are] next unto
the slain [man], shall wash their hands over the heifer that is
beheaded in the valley:
 21:7  And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed
this blood, neither have our eyes seen [it].
 21:8  Be merciful, O LORD, unto thy people Israel, whom thou
hast redeemed, and lay not innocent blood unto thy people of
Israel's charge. And the blood shall be forgiven them.
 21:9  So shalt thou put away the [guilt of] innocent blood
from among you, when thou shalt do [that which is] right in the
sight of the LORD.
 21:10  When thou goest forth to war against thine enemies, and
the LORD thy God hath delivered them into thine hands, and thou
hast taken them captive,
 21:11  And seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and
hast a desire unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy
wife;
 21:12  Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house; and she
shall shave her head, and pare her nails;
 21:13  And she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off
her, and shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father and
her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto
her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
 21:14  And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then
thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell
her at all for money, thou shalt not make merchandise of her,
because thou hast humbled her.
 21:15  If a man have two wives, one beloved, and another
hated, and they have born him children, [both] the beloved and
the hated; and [if] the firstborn son be hers that was hated:
 21:16  Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit
[that] which he hath, [that] he may not make the son of the
beloved firstborn before the son of the hated, [which is
indeed] the firstborn:
 21:17  But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated [for] the
firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath:
for he [is] the beginning of his strength; the right of the
firstborn [is] his.
 21:18  If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will
not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother,
and [that], when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto
them:
 21:19  Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him,
and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the
gate of his place;
 21:20  And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This
our son [is] stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our
voice; [he is] a glutton, and a drunkard.
 21:21  And all the men of his city shall stone him with
stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among
you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
 21:22  And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and
he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree:
 21:23  His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but
thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is
hanged [is] accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled,
which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance.
 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.
 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.
 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.
 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.
 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.
 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:
 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.
 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.
 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.
 22:10  Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together.
 22:11  Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, [as] of
woollen and linen together.
 22:12  Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of
thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest [thyself].
 22:13  If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate
her,
 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:
 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:
 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;
 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.
 22:18  And the elders of that city shall take that man and
chastise him;
 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.
 22:20  But if this thing be true, [and the tokens of]
virginity be not found for the damsel:
 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.
 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.
 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;
 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.
 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:
 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:
 22:27  For he found her in the field, [and] the betrothed
damsel cried, and [there was] none to save her.
 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;
 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.
 22:30  A man shall not take his father's wife, nor discover
his father's skirt.
