Deuteronomy 21:13–21

¹³“She shall also ¹remove the clothes of her captivity and shall remain in your house, and ^amourn 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“It shall be, if you are not pleased with 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 unloved have borne him sons, if the firstborn son belongs to the unloved,

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 acknowledge the firstborn, the son of the ¹unloved, by giving him a double portion of all that ²he has, for he is the ^abeginning of his strength; ^bto him belongs the right of the firstborn.

¹⁸“If any man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will ^anot obey his father or his mother, and when they chastise 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“They shall say to the elders of his city, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey us, he is a glutton and a drunkard.’

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