Deuteronomy 25:8-12 Amplified Bible (AMP)

8. Then the elders of his city shall call him and speak to him. And if he stands firm and says, I do not want to take her,

9. Then shall his brother's wife come to him in the presence of the elders and pull his shoe off his foot and spit in his face and shall answer, So shall it be done to that man who does not build up his brother's house.

10. And his family shall be called in Israel, The House of Him Whose Shoe Was Loosed.

11. When men strive together one with another and the wife of the one draws near to rescue her husband out of the hand of him who is beating him, and puts out her hand and seizes the other man by the private parts,

12. Then you shall cut off her hand; your eyes shall not pity her.
