New Testament

Deuter­­onomy 24:4-9 Modern English Version (MEV)

4. her first husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, since she is defiled, for that is abomination before the Lord, and you must not bring sin on the land, which the Lord your God is giving you for an inheritance.

5. When a man has taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war or be charged with any business; he is to be free at home one year, and must bring joy to his wife which he has taken.

6. No man shall take a lower or upper millstone as a pledge, for he would be taking a man’s life as a pledge.

7. If a man is found kidnapping any of his brothers of the children of Israel, and makes property of him or sells him, then that kidnapper must die, and you must remove the evil from among you.

8. Be careful with an outbreak of leprosy, that you diligently observe and do according to all that the Levitical priests instruct you. As I have commanded them, so you must carefully do.

9. Remember what the Lord your God did to Miriam on the way, after you came out of Egypt.
