Deuteronomy 22:13–21

¹³If a man take a wife, and go in unto her and hate her, ¹⁴and charge her with things for scandalous talk, and cause an evil name against her to be spread abroad, and say, This woman have I taken, and I came in unto her, and I did not find her a virgin; ¹⁵then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel’s virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate; ¹⁶and the damsel’s father shall say unto the elders, I gave my daughter unto this man as wife, and he hates her; ¹⁷and behold, he charges her with things for scandalous talk, saying, I found not thy daughter a virgin; and here are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city. ¹⁸And the elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him; ¹⁹and they shall fine him a hundred shekels of silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel, because he hath caused an evil name to be spread abroad against a virgin in Israel. And she shall remain his wife: he may not put her away all his days. ²⁰But if this thing is true, and virginity hath not been found with the damsel; ²¹then they shall bring out the damsel unto the entrance of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought infamy in Israel, committing fornication in her father’s house; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.
