11. Don’t wear clothes made of wool and linen woven together.
12. Tie several pieces of thread together. Then put these tassels on the four corners of your coat.
13. A man might marry a girl and have intimate relations with her. But he might decide that he does not like her.
14. So he might lie about her and give her a bad name. He might say, “I married this woman. But when I had intimate relations with her, I did not find that she was a virgin.”
15. Then the girl’s parents must bring proof that she was a virgin. They must bring it to the elders at the city gate.
16. The girl’s father will say to the leaders, “I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife. But now he does not want her.
17. This man has told lies about my daughter. He has said, ‘I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.’ But here is the proof that my daughter was a virgin.” Then her parents are to show the sheet to the city leaders.
18. Then the leaders must take the man and punish him.
19. They must make him pay about two and a half pounds of silver. The silver will go to the girl’s father. This is because the man has given an Israelite girl a bad name. The girl must continue to be the man’s wife. And he may not divorce her as long as he lives.
20. But the things the husband said about his wife might be true. And there might be no proof that she was a virgin.
21. If so, the girl must be brought to the door of her father’s house. Then the men of the town must put her to death by throwing stones at her. She has done a disgraceful thing in Israel. She had physical relations before she was married. You must get rid of the evil among you.
