Deuteronomy 22:20 But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:

Deuteronomy 22:21 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 dies: 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.

Deuteronomy 22:25 IF But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man forces her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die:

Deuteronomy 22:26 But unto the damsel thou shall do nothing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbor, and slayeth him, even so, is this matter:

Deuteronomy 22:28 If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lies with her, and they are found;

Deuteronomy 22:29 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.

Deuteronomy 22:30 A man shall not take his father’s wife, nor discover his father’s skirt.
