New Testament

Deuteronomy 22:20-27 New Century Version (NCV)

20. But if the things the husband said about his wife are true, and there is no proof that she was a virgin,

21. 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 by having sexual relations before she was married. You must get rid of the evil among you.

22. If a man is found having sexual relations with another man’s wife, both the woman and the man who had sexual relations with her must die. Get rid of this evil from Israel.

23. If a man meets a virgin in a city and has sexual relations with her, but she is engaged to another man,

24. you must take both of them to the city gate and put them to death by throwing stones at them. Kill the girl, because she was in a city and did not scream for help. And kill the man for having sexual relations with another man’s wife. You must get rid of the evil among you.

25. But if a man meets an engaged girl out in the country and forces her to have sexual relations with him, only the man who had sexual relations with her must be put to death.

26. Don’t do anything to the girl, because she has not done a sin worthy of death. This is like the person who attacks and murders a neighbor;

27. the man found the engaged girl in the country and she screamed, but no one was there to save her.
