26 But you shall do nothing to the young woman; there is in the young woman no sin deserving of death, for just as when a man rises against his neighbor and kills him, even so is this matter.
27 For he found her in the countryside, and the betrothed young woman cried out, but there was no one to save her.
28 a“If a man finds a young woman who is a virgin, who is not betrothed, and he seizes her and lies with her, and they are found out,
29 then the man who lay with her shall give to the young woman’s father afifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife bbecause he has humbled her; he shall not be permitted to divorce her all his days.
30 a“A man shall not take his father’s wife, nor buncover his father’s bed.
