Deuteronomy 22
22
1youi shall not see youi brother’s ox or his sheep go astray, and hide yourself from them: youi shall in any case bring them again unto youi brother.
2And if youi brother [be] not near unto youi, or if youi know him not, then youi shall bring it unto youi own house, and it shall be with youi until youi brother seek after it, and youi shall restore it to him again.
3In like manner shall youi do with his ass; and so shall youi do with his clothing; and with all lost thing of youi brother’s, which he has lost, and youi have found, shall youi do likewise: youi may not hide yourself.
4youi shall not see youi brother’s ass or his ox fall down by the way, and hide yourself from them: youi shall surely help him to lift [them] up again.
5The woman shall not wear that which pertains unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so [are] abomination unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
6If a bird’s nest chance to be before youi in the way in any tree, or on the ground, [whether they be] young ones, or eggs, and the mother sitting upon the young, or upon the eggs, youi shall not take the mother with the young:
7 [But] youi shall in any wise let the mother go, and take the young to youi; that it may be well with youi, and [that] youi may prolong [youi] days.
8When youi build a new house, then youi shall make a battlement (low wall around a roof; wall for defense) for youri roof, that youi bring not blood upon youri house, if any man fall from there.
9youi shall not sow youi vineyard with diverse seeds: lest the fruit of youri seed which youi have sown, and the fruit of youri vineyard, be defiled.
10youi shall not plow with an ox and an ass together.
11youi shall not wear a garment of diverse sorts, [as] of woollen and linen together.
12youi shall make youi fringes upon the four quarters of youri vesture, which youi cover [yourself].
13If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her,
14And 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:
15Then shall the father of the girl, and her mother, take and bring forth [the tokens of] the girl’s virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate:
16And the girl’s father shall say unto the elders, I gave my daughter unto this man to wife, and he hates her;
17And, lo, he has given occasions of speech [against her], saying, I found not youi 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.
18And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him;
19And they shall amerce (to punish by imposing a fine) him in an hundred [shekels] of silver, and give [them] unto the father of the girl, because he has brought up an evil name upon a virgin of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days.
20But if this thing be true, [and the tokens of] virginity be not found for the girl:
21Then they shall bring out the girl to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she has wrought folly in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], to play the whore in her father’s house: so shall youi put evil away from among you.
22If 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 shall youi put away evil from Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God].
23If a girl [that is] a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her;
24Then you2f shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and you2f shall stone them with stones that they die; the girl, because she cried not, [being] in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbour’s wife: so youi shall put away evil from among you.
25But if a man find a betrothed girl in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die:
26But unto the girl youi shall do nothing; [there is] in the girl no sin [worthy] of death: for as when a man rises against his neighbour, and slays him, even so [is] this matter:
27For he found her in the field, [and] the betrothed girl cried, and [there was] none to save her.
28If a man find a girl [that is] a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
29Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the girl’s father fifty [shekels] of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he has humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.
30A man shall not take his father’s wife, nor discover (uncover; reveal; have first sight of) his father’s skirt.
