20. But if the man was right and there is no proof that his bride was a virgin,
21. the men of the town will take the woman to the door of her father's house and stone her to death.This woman brought evil into your community by sleeping with someone before she got married, and you must get rid of that evil by killing her.
22. People of Israel, if a man is caught having sex with someone else's wife, you must put them both to death. That way, you will get rid of the evil they have done in Israel.
23-24. If a man is caught in town having sex with an engaged woman who isn't screaming for help, they both must be put to death. The man is guilty of having sex with a married woman. And the woman is guilty because she didn't call for help, even though she was inside a town and people were nearby. Take them both to the town gate and stone them to death. You must get rid of the evil they brought into your community.
25. If an engaged woman is raped out in the country, only the man will be put to death.
26. Do not punish the woman at all; she has done nothing wrong, and certainly nothing deserving death. This crime is like murder,

28. Suppose a woman isn't engaged to be married, and a man talks her into sleeping with him. If they are caught,

30. A man must not marry a woman who was married to his father. This would be a disgrace to his father.
