Deuteronomy 25:4-6
Lexham English Bible

4 “You shall not muzzle an ox when he is threshing.[a]

5 “When brothers dwell together and one of them dies and has no son, the wife of the deceased shall not become the wife of a man of another family;[b] her brother-in-law shall have sex with her,[c] and he shall take her to himself[d] as a wife, and he shall perform his duty as a brother-in-law with respect to her. 6 And then the firstborn that she bears shall represent his dead brother,[e] so that his name is not blotted out from Israel.
