But if this thing be true, [and the tokens of] virginity be not found for the damsel: (22:20)

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 (22:21)

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 (22:22)

If a damsel [that is] a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her; (22:23)

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 (22:24)

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: (22:25)

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: (22:26)

For he found her in the field, [and] the betrothed damsel cried, and [there was] none to save her (22:27)

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; (22:28)

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 (22:29)

A man shall not take his father's wife, nor discover his father's skirt (22:30)
