Deuteronomy 21:13–21

¹³remove the clothes she was wearing when she was taken prisoner, live in your house, and mourn for her father and mother a full month. After that, you may have sexual relations with her and be her husband, and she will be your wife. ¹⁴Then if you are not satisfied with her, you are to let her go where she wants, but you must not sell her or treat her as merchandise,^B because you have humiliated her.

THE RIGHT OF THE FIRSTBORN

¹⁵“If a man has two wives, one loved and the other neglected, and both the loved and the neglected bear him sons, and if the neglected wife has the firstborn son, ¹⁶when that man gives what he has to his sons as an inheritance, he is not to show favoritism to the son of the loved wife as his firstborn over the firstborn of the neglected wife. ¹⁷He must acknowledge the firstborn, the son of the neglected wife, by giving him two shares^CD of his estate, for he is the firstfruits of his virility; he has the rights of the firstborn.^b

A REBELLIOUS SON

¹⁸“If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father or mother and doesn’t listen to them even after they discipline him, ¹⁹his father and mother are to take hold of him and bring him to the elders of his city, to the gate^c of his hometown. ²⁰They will say to the elders of his city, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious; he doesn’t obey us. He’s a glutton and a drunkard.’ ²¹Then all the men of his city will stone him to death.^d You must purge the evil from you, and all Israel will hear and be afraid.
