New Testament

Deuteronomy 22:19-22 New Living Translation (NLT)

19. They must also fine him 100 pieces of silver, which he must pay to the woman’s father because he publicly accused a virgin of Israel of shameful conduct. The woman will then remain the man’s wife, and he may never divorce her.

20. “But suppose the man’s accusations are true, and he can show that she was not a virgin.

21. The woman must be taken to the door of her father’s home, and there the men of the town must stone her to death, for she has committed a disgraceful crime in Israel by being promiscuous while living in her parents’ home. In this way, you will purge this evil from among you.

22. “If a man is discovered committing adultery, both he and the woman must die. In this way, you will purge Israel of such evil.
