Various Laws

¹⁰ 'When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and Jehovah thy God hath given them into thy hand, and thou hast taken captive its captivity, ¹¹ and hast seen in the captivity a woman of fair form, and hast delighted in her, and hast taken to thee for a wife, ¹² then thou hast brought her in unto the midst of thy household, and she hath shaved her head, and prepared her nails, ¹³ and turned aside the raiment of her captivity from off her, and hath dwelt in thy house, and bewailed her father and her mother a month of days, and afterwards thou dost go in unto her and hast married her, and she hath been to thee for a wife: ¹⁴ 'And it hath been—if thou hast not delighted in her, that thou hast sent her away at her desire, and thou dost not at all sell her for money; thou dost not tyrannize over her, because that thou hast humbled her.
