|
21. then they will bring the girl to the door of her father's house. There the men of her city will kill her with stones, because she has done a foolish act in Israel by acting in her father's house like a woman who sells the use of her body. So you will get rid of the sin from among you.
|
21. Then they shall bring out H3318 H853 the damsel H5291 to H413 the door H6607 of her father H1 's house H1004 , and the men H376 of her city H5892 shall stone H5619 her with stones H68 that she die H4191 : because H3588 she hath wrought H6213 folly H5039 in Israel H3478 , to play the whore H2181 in her father H1 's house H1004 : so shalt thou put evil away H1197 H7451 from among H4480 H7130 you.

|
|
24. Then you must bring them both to the gate of that city and kill them with stones. Put the girl to death because she did not cry for help in the city, and the man because he has sinned against his neighbor's wife. So you will get rid of the sin from among you.
|
24. Then ye shall bring them both out H3318 H853 H8147 unto H413 the gate H8179 of that H1931 city H5892 , and ye shall stone H5619 them with stones H68 that they die H4191 ; H853 the damsel H5291 , because H5921 H1697 H834 she cried H6817 not H3808 , being in the city H5892 ; and the man H376 , because H5921 H1697 H834 he hath humbled H6031 H853 his neighbor H7453 's wife H802 : so thou shalt put away H1197 evil H7451 from among H4480 H7130 you.
|
|
25. But if the man finds a girl in the field who is promised in marriage, and makes her lie with him, then only the man who lies with her will die.
|
25. But if H518 a man H376 find H4672 H853 a betrothed H781 damsel H5291 in the field H7704 , and the man H376 force H2388 her , and lie H7901 with H5973 her : then the man H376 only H905 that H834 lay H7901 with H5973 her shall die H4191 :
|
|
26. Do nothing to the girl. There is no sin in the girl bad enough for her to be put to death. It is as if a man goes against his neighbor and kills him.
|
26. But unto the damsel H5291 thou shalt do H6213 nothing H3808 H1697 ; there is in the damsel H5291 no H369 sin H2399 worthy of death H4194 : for H3588 as H834 when a man H376 riseth H6965 against H5921 his neighbor H7453 , and slayeth H7523 H5315 him , even so H3651 is this H2088 matter H1697 :
|
|
27. When he found her in the field, the girl promised in marriage cried out. But there was no one to save her.
|
27. For H3588 he found H4672 her in the field H7704 , and the betrothed H781 damsel H5291 cried H6817 , and there was none H369 to save H3467 her.
|
|
28. "If a man finds a girl who has never had a man and is not promised in marriage, and takes her and lies with her, and they are found,
|
28. If H3588 a man H376 find H4672 a damsel H5291 that is a virgin H1330 , which H834 is not H3808 betrothed H781 , and lay hold H8610 on her , and lie H7901 with H5973 her , and they be found H4672 ;
|
|
29. then the man who lay with her must give fifty pieces of silver to the girl's father. And she will become his wife, because he has put her to shame. He cannot divorce her as long as he lives.
|
29. Then the man H376 that lay H7901 with H5973 her shall give H5414 unto the damsel H5291 's father H1 fifty H2572 shekels of silver H3701 , and she shall be H1961 his wife H802 ; because H8478 H834 he hath humbled H6031 her , he may H3201 not H3808 put her away H7971 all H3605 his days H3117 .
|
|
30. "A man must not take his father's wife. He must not take the clothes off the woman who belongs to his father.
|
30. A man H376 shall not H3808 take H3947 H853 his father H1 's wife H802 , nor H3808 discover H1540 his father H1 's skirt H3671 .
