" aYou shall not see your 1countryman's
ox
or
his sheep
straying
away
, and 2pay
no
attention
to them; you shall certainly
bring
them back
to your countryman
.
"If your countryman
is not near
you, or if you do not know
him, then you shall bring
it home
to your house
, and it shall remain
with you until
your countryman
looks
for it; then you shall restore
it to him.
"Thus you shall do
with his donkey
, and you shall do
the same
with his garment
, and you shall do
likewise
with anything
lost
by your countryman
, which
he has lost
and you have found
. You are not allowed
to 1neglect
them.
"You shall not see your countryman's
donkey
or
his ox
fallen
down
on the way
, and 1pay
no
attention
to them; you shall certainly
help
him to raise
them up.
"A woman shall not wear
man's
clothing
, nor
shall a man
put
on a woman's
clothing
; for whoever
does
these
things
is an abomination
to the LORD
your God
.
"If you happen
to come
upon a bird's
nest
along the way
, in any
tree
or
on the ground
, with young
ones
or
eggs
, and the mother
sitting
on the young
or
on the eggs
, ayou shall not take
the mother
with the young
;
you shall certainly let
the mother
go
, but the young
you may take
for yourself, ain order
that it may be well
with you and that you may prolong
your days
.
"When you build
a new
house
, you shall make
a parapet
for your roof
, so that you will not bring
bloodguilt
on your house
if
anyone
falls
from it.
" aYou shall not sow your vineyard
with two
kinds
of seed, or
1all
the produce
of the seed
which
you have sown
and the increase
of the vineyard
will become
defiled
.
" aYou shall not plow with an ox
and a donkey
together
.
" aYou shall not wear a material
mixed
of wool
and linen
together
.
" aYou shall make yourself tassels
on the four
corners
of your garment
with which
you cover
yourself.
" aIf any
man
takes
a wife
and goes
in to her and then 1turns
against
her,
and charges her with shameful
deeds
and 1publicly
defames
her, and says
, `I took
this
woman
, but when I came
near
her, I did not find
her a virgin
,'
then the girl's father
and her mother
shall take
and bring
out the evidence of the girl's
virginity
to the elders
of the city
at the gate
.
"The girl's father
shall say
to the elders
, `I gave
my daughter
to this
man
for a wife
, but he 1turned
against
her;
and behold, he has charged
her with shameful
deeds
, saying
, "I did not find
your daughter
a virgin
." But 1this
is the evidence
of my daughter's
virginity
.' And they shall spread
the garment
before
the elders
of the city
.
"So athe elders of that city
shall take
the man
and chastise
him,
and they shall fine him a hundred
shekels of silver
and give
it to the girl's
father
, because
he 1publicly
defamed
a virgin
of Israel
. And she shall remain
his wife
; he cannot
2divorce
her all
his days
.
"But if this
1 acharge
is true
, that the girl
was not found
a virgin
,
then they shall bring out the girl
to the doorway
of her father's
house
, and the men
of her city
shall stone
her 1to death
because
she has acommitted
an act
of folly
in Israel
by playing
the harlot
in her father's
house
; thus byou shall purge
the evil
from among
you.
" aIf a man
is found
lying
with a married
woman
, then both
of them shall die
, the man
who lay
with the woman
, and the woman
; thus you shall purge
the evil
from Israel
.
" aIf there is a girl
who is a virgin
engaged
to a man
, and another man
finds
her in the city
and lies
with her,
then you shall bring them both
out to the gate
of that city
and you shall stone
them 1to death
; the girl
, because
she did not cry
out in the city
, and the man
, because
he has violated
his neighbor's
wife
. Thus you shall purge
the evil
from among
you.
"But if in the field
the man
finds
the girl
who is engaged
, and the man
forces
her and lies
with her, then only
the man
who
lies
with her shall die
.
"But you shall do nothing
to the girl
; there
is no
sin
in the girl
worthy of death
, for just
as a man
rises
against
his neighbor
and murders
him, so
is this
case
.
"When he found
her in the field
, the engaged
girl
cried
out, but there
was no
one to save
her.
" aIf a man
finds
a girl
who is a virgin
, who
is not engaged
, and seizes
her and lies
with her and they are discovered
,
then the man who lay
with her shall give
to the girl's
father
fifty
shekels of silver
, and she shall become
his wife
because
he has violated
her; he cannot
divorce
her all
his days
.
" 1 aA man shall not take
his father's
wife
so that he will not uncover
his father's
skirt
.
