Deuteronomy 22:21-30 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

21. then they shall bring out the young lady to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has done folly in Israel, to play the prostitute in her father’s house. So you shall remove the evil from amongst you.

22. If a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both die, the man who lay with the woman and the woman. So you shall remove the evil from Israel.

23. If there is a young lady who is a virgin pledged to be married to a husband, and a man finds her in the city, and lies with her;

24. then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones; the lady, because she didn’t cry, being in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbour’s wife. So you shall remove the evil from amongst you.

25. But if the man finds the lady who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man forces her, and lies with her; then only the man who lay with her shall die;

26. but to the lady you shall do nothing. There is in the lady no sin worthy of death; for as when a man rises against his neighbour, and kills him, even so is this matter;

27. for he found her in the field, the pledged to be married lady cried, and there was no one to save her.

28. If a man finds a lady who is a virgin, who is not pledged to be married, grabs her, and lies with her, and they are found;

29. then the man who lay with her shall give to the lady’s father fifty shekels of silver. She shall be his wife, because he has humbled her. He may not put her away all his days.

30. A man shall not take his father’s wife, and shall not uncover his father’s skirt.
