Deuteronomy 22:16-18

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁶ The woman's father must say to the leaders, ‘I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife. But now he does not like her. ¹⁷ He accuses her that she is bad. He says, “I discovered that your daughter had sex before I married her.” But look at her cloth. This shows that she had never had sex before.’ Then her parents must hold the cloth in front of the leaders of the town. ¹⁸ The leaders must then take hold of the man. They must punish him.
