23 If there is a young woman, a virgin, betrothed to a husband, and a man finds her in the city and lies with her,

24 then you? shall bring out the two of them to the gate of that city, and you? shall stone them with stones to death—the young woman on account of the matter, because she did not cry out in the city, and the man upon this thing, because he humbled the wife of his neighbor. And you shall put away the evil from among you.

25 But if in the countryside the man finds a young woman betrothed, and the man forces her and lies with her, only the man who lay with her shall die.

26 And to the young woman you shall not do anything; in the young woman there is no sin of death. For as when a man rises against his neighbor and kills him, even so is this matter.

27 For he found her in the countryside and cried out the young woman betrothed, and there was no one to save her.

28 If a man finds a young woman, a virgin who is not betrothed, and he seizes her and lies with her and they are found out,

29 then the man who lay with her shall give to the father of the young woman fifty shekels of silver, and to him she shall be wife upon that he has humbled her. He shall not be permitted to divorce her all his days.

30 A man shall not take the wife of his father, and he shall not uncover the skirt of his father.
