[1] You shall not see your brother’s ox or his sheep go astray and hide yourself from them. You shall surely bring them again to your brother. [2] If your brother isn’t near to you, or if you don’t know him, then you shall bring it home to your house, and it shall be with you until your brother comes looking for it, and you shall restore it to him. [3] So you shall do with his donkey. So you shall do with his garment. So you shall do with every lost thing of your brother’s, which he has lost and you have found. You may not hide yourself. [4] You shall not see your brother’s donkey or his ox fallen down by the way, and hide yourself from them. You shall surely help him to lift them up again. [5] A woman shall not wear men’s clothing, neither shall a man put on women’s clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh your God. [6] If you come across a bird’s nest on the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the hen sitting on the young, or on the eggs, you shall not take the hen with the young. [7] You shall surely let the hen go, but the young you may take for yourself, that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days. [8] When you build a new house, then you shall make a railing around your roof, so that you don’t bring blood on your house if anyone falls from there. [9] You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest all the fruit be defiled, the seed which you have sown, and the increase of the vineyard. [10] You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together. [11] You shall not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together. [12] You shall make yourselves fringes§ on the four corners of your cloak with which you cover yourself. [13] If any man takes a wife, and goes in to her, hates her, [14] accuses her of shameful things, gives her a bad name, and says, “I took this woman, and when I came near to her, I didn’t find in her the tokens of virginity;” [15] then the young lady’s father and mother shall take and bring the tokens of the young lady’s virginity to the elders of the city in the gate. [16] The young lady’s father shall tell the elders, “I gave my daughter to this man as his wife, and he hates her. [17] Behold, he has accused her of shameful things, saying, ‘I didn’t find in your daughter the tokens of virginity;’ and yet these are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity.” They shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city. [18] The elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him. [19] They shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver,ⓘ and give them to the father of the young lady, because he has given a bad name to a virgin of Israel. She shall be his wife. He may not put her away all his days. [20] But if this thing is true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the young lady, [21] then they shall bring out the young lady to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has done folly in Israel, to play the prostitute in her father’s house. So you shall remove the evil from among you. [22] If a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both die, the man who lay with the woman and the woman. So you shall remove the evil from Israel. [23] If there is a young lady who is a virgin pledged to be married to a husband, and a man finds her in the city, and lies with her, [24] then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones; the lady, because she didn’t cry, being in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbor’s wife. So you shall remove the evil from among you. [25] But if the man finds the lady who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lay with her shall die; [26] but to the lady you shall do nothing. There is in the lady no sin worthy 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 field, the pledged to be married lady cried, and there was no one to save her. [28] If a man finds a lady who is a virgin, who is not pledged to be married, grabs her and lies with her, and they are found, [29] then the man who lay with her shall give to the lady’s father fifty shekelsⓘ of silver. She shall be his wife, because he has humbled her. He may not put her away all his days. [30] A man shall not take his father’s wife, and shall not uncover his father’s skirt.

King James Version
[1] Thou shalt not see H7200 (QalImpf) thy brother’s H251 ox H7794 or his sheep H7716 go astray, H5080 (NiphPtc) and hide H5956 (HithPerf) thyself from them: thou shalt in any case H7725 (HiphInf) bring them again H7725 (HiphImpf) unto thy brother. H251 [2] And if thy brother H251 be not nigh H7138 unto thee, or if thou know H3045 (QalPerf) him not, then thou shalt bring H622 (QalPerf) it unto H8432 thine own house, H1004 and it shall be with thee until thy brother H251 seek H1875 (QalInf) after it, and thou shalt restore it to him again. H7725 (HiphPerf) [3] In like manner H3651 shalt thou do H6213 (QalImpf) with his ass; H2543 and so shalt thou do H6213 (QalImpf) with his raiment; H8071 and with all lost thing H9 of thy brother’s, H251 which he hath lost, H6 (QalImpf) and thou hast found, H4672 (QalPerf) shalt thou do H6213 (QalImpf) likewise: thou mayest H3201 (QalImpf) not hide H5956 (HithInf) thyself. [4] Thou shalt not see H7200 (QalImpf) thy brother’s H251 ass H2543 or his ox H7794 fall down H5307 (QalActPtc) by the way, H1870 and hide H5956 (HithPerf) thyself from them: thou shalt surely H6965 (HiphInf) help him to lift them up again. H6965 (HiphImpf) [5] The woman H802 shall not wear that which pertaineth H3627 unto a man, H1397 neither shall a man H1397 put H3847 (QalImpf) on a woman’s H802 garment: H8071 for all that do H6213 (QalActPtc) so H428 are abomination H8441 unto the Lord H3068 thy God. H430 [6] If a bird’s H6833 nest H7064 chance H7122 (NiphImpf) to be before H6440 thee in the way H1870 in any tree, H6086 or on the ground, H776 whether they be young ones, H667 or eggs, H1000 and the dam H517 sitting H7257 (QalActPtc) upon the young, H667 or upon the eggs, H1000 thou shalt not take H3947 (QalImpf) the dam H517 with the young: H1121 [7] but thou shalt in any wise H7971 (PielInf) let the dam H517 go, H7971 (PielImpf) and take H3947 (QalImpf) the young H1121 to thee; that it may be well H3190 (QalImpf) with thee, and that thou mayest prolong H748 (HiphPerf) thy days. H3117 [8] When thou buildest H1129 (QalImpf) a new H2319 house, H1004 then thou shalt make H6213 (QalPerf) a battlement H4624 for thy roof, H1406 that thou bring H7760 (QalImpf) not blood H1818 upon thine house, H1004 if any man H5307 (QalActPtc) fall H5307 (QalImpf) from thence. [9] Thou shalt not sow H2232 (QalImpf) thy vineyard H3754 with divers seeds: H3610 lest the fruit H4395 of thy seed H2233§ which thou hast sown, H2232 (QalImpf) and the fruit H8393 of thy vineyard, H3754 be defiled. H6942 (QalImpf) [10] Thou shalt not plow H2790 (QalImpf) with an ox H7794 and an ass H2543 together. H3162 [11] Thou shalt not wear H3847 (QalImpf) a garment of divers sorts, H8162 as of woollen H6785 and linen H6593 together. H3162 [12] Thou shalt make H6213 (QalImpf) thee fringes H1434 upon the four H702 quarters H3671§ of thy vesture, H3682 wherewith thou coverest H3680 (PielImpf) thyself. [13] If any man H376 take H3947 (QalImpf) a wife, H802 and go in H935 (QalPerf) unto her, and hate H8130 (QalPerf) her, [14] and give H7760 (QalPerf) occasions H5949 of speech H1697 against her, and bring up H3318 (HiphPerf) an evil H7451 name H8034 upon her, and say, H559 (QalPerf) I took H3947 (QalPerf) this woman, H802 and when I came H7126 (QalImpf) to her, I found H4672 (QalPerf) her not a maid: H1331 [15] then shall the father H1 of the damsel, H5291 and her mother, H517 take H3947 (QalPerf) and bring forth H3318 (HiphPerf) the tokens of the damsel’s H5291 virginity H1331 unto the elders H2205 of the city H5892 in the gate: H8179 [16] and the damsel’s H5291 father H1 shall say H559 (QalPerf) unto the elders, H2205 I gave H5414 (QalPerf) my daughter H1323 unto this man H376 to wife, H802 and he hateth H8130 (QalImpf) her; [17] and, lo, he hath given H7760 (QalPerf) occasions H5949 of speech H1697 against her, saying, H559 (QalInf) I found H4672 (QalPerf) not thy daughter H1323 a maid; H1331 and yet these are the tokens of my daughter’s H1323 virginity. H1331 And they shall spread H6566 (QalPerf) the cloth H8071 before H6440 the elders H2205 of the city. H5892 [18] And the elders H2205 of that city H5892 shall take H3947 (QalPerf) that man H376 and chastise H3256 (PielPerf) him; [19] and they shall amerce H6064 (QalPerf) him in an hundred H3967 shekels of silver, H3701 and give H5414 (QalPerf) them unto the father H1 of the damsel, H5291 because he hath brought up H3318 (HiphPerf) an evil H7451 name H8034 upon a virgin H1330 of Israel: H3478 and she shall be his wife; H802 he may H3201 (QalImpf) not put her away H7971 (PielInf) all his days. H3117 [20] But if this thing H1697 be true, H571 and the tokens of virginity H1331 be not found H4672 (NiphPerf) for the damsel: H5291 [21] then they shall bring out H3318 (HiphPerf) the damsel H5291 to the door H6607 of her father’s H1 house, H1004 and the men H582 of her city H5892 shall stone H5619 (QalPerf) her with stones H68 that she die: H4191 (QalPerf) because she hath wrought H6213 (QalPerf) folly H5039 in Israel, H3478 to play the whore H2181 (QalInf) in her father’s H1 house: H1004 so shalt thou put H1197 evil H7451 away H1197 (PielPerf) from among H7130 you. [22] If a man H376 be found H4672 (NiphImpf) lying H7901 (QalActPtc) with a woman H802 married H1166 (QalPasPtc) to an husband, H1167 then they shall both of them H8147 die, H4191 (QalPerf) both the man H376 that lay H7901 (QalActPtc) with the woman, H802 and the woman: H802 so shalt thou put away H1197 (PielPerf) evil H7451 from Israel. H3478 [23] If a damsel H5291 that is a virgin H1330 be betrothed H781 (PualPtc) unto an husband, H376 and a man H376 find H4672 (QalPerf) her in the city, H5892 and lie H7901 (QalPerf) with her; [24] then ye shall bring H3318 (HiphPerf) them both H8147 out unto the gate H8179 of that city, H5892 and ye shall stone H5619 (QalPerf) them with stones H68 that they die; H4191 (QalPerf) the damsel, H5291 because H834 she cried H6817 (QalPerf) not, being in the city; H5892 and the man, H376 because H834 he hath humbled H6031 (PielPerf) his neighbour’s H7453 wife: H802 so thou shalt put away H1197 (PielPerf) evil H7451 from among H7130 you. [25] But if a man H376 find H4672 (QalImpf) a betrothed H781 (PualPtc) damsel H5291 in the field, H7704 and the man H376 force H2388 (HiphPerf) her,§ and lie H7901 (QalPerf) with her: then the man H376 only that lay H7901 (QalPerf) with her shall die: H4191 (QalPerf) [26] but unto the damsel H5291 thou shalt do H6213 (QalImpf) nothing; H1697 there is in the damsel H5291 no sin H2399 worthy of death: H4194 for as when a man H376 riseth H6965 (QalImpf) against his neighbour, H7453 and slayeth H7523 (QalPerf/Ketiv) him, even so is this matter: H1697 [27] for he found H4672 (QalPerf) her in the field, H7704 and the betrothed H781 (PualPtc) damsel H5291 cried, H6817 (QalPerf) and there was none to save H3467 (HiphPtc) her. [28] If a man H376 find H4672 (QalImpf) a damsel H5291 that is a virgin, H1330 which is not betrothed, H781 (PualPerf) and lay hold H8610 (QalPerf) on her, and lie H7901 (QalPerf) with her, and they be found; H4672 (NiphPerf) [29] then the man H376 that lay H7901 (QalActPtc) with her shall give H5414 (QalPerf) unto the damsel’s H5291 father H1 fifty H2572 shekels of silver, H3701 and she shall be his wife; H802 because he hath humbled H6031 (PielPerf) her, he may H3201 (QalImpf) not put her away H7971 (PielInf) all his days. H3117 [30] A man H376 shall not take H3947 (QalImpf) his father’s H1 wife, H802 nor discover H1540 (PielImpf) his father’s H1 skirt. H3671
