Deuteronomy 21:13–21

¹³“She shall also ¹remove the clothes of her captivity and shall remain in your house and ^aweep for her father and mother a full month; and after that you may go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife.

¹⁴“And it will be that, if you do not desire her, then you shall let her go ¹wherever she wishes; but you shall certainly not sell her for money; you shall not ²mistreat her because you have ^ahumbled her.

¹⁵“If a man has two wives, the one loved and ^athe other ¹unloved, and both the loved and the ²unloved have borne him sons, if the firstborn son belongs to the ³unloved,

¹⁶then it shall be in the day he ¹wills what he has to his sons, he cannot make the son of the loved the firstborn before the son of the ²unloved, who is the firstborn.

¹⁷“But he shall recognize the firstborn, the son of the ¹unloved, by giving him a double portion of all that ²he has, for he is the ^afirst of his vigor; ^bthe legal judgment for the firstborn belongs to him.

¹⁸“If any man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will ^anot obey his father or his mother, and when they discipline him, he will not even listen to them,

¹⁹then his father and mother shall seize him and bring him out to the elders of his city ¹at the gateway of his hometown.

²⁰“Then they shall say to the elders of his city, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious; he will not listen to our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard.’

²¹“^aThen all the men of his city shall stone him, and he will die; so ^byou shall purge the evil from your midst, and ^call Israel will hear of it and fear.
