Deuteronomy 22:25-30 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

25. But if a man find a damsel that is betrothed, in the field, and taking hold of her, lie with her, he alone shall die:

26. The damsel shall suffer nothing, neither is she guilty of death: for as a robber riseth against his brother, and taketh away his life, so also did the damsel suffer:

27. She was alone in the field: she cried, and there was no man to help her.

28. If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, who is not espoused, and taking her, lie with her, and the matter come to judgment:

29. He that lay with her shall give to the father of the maid fifty sides of silver, and shall have her to wife, because he hath humbled her: he may not put her away all the days of his life.

30. No man shall take his father's wife, nor remove his covering.
