Deuteronomy 22:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 “The apparel of a man shall not be put on[a] a woman, and a man shall not wear the clothing of a woman, because everyone who does these things is detestable to Yahweh your God.
6 “If a bird’s nest is found before you[b] on the road in any tree or on the ground, and there are chicks or eggs, and the mother is lying down on the chicks or the eggs, you shall not take the mother along with the young; 7 you shall certainly let the mother go, but you may take the young for yourselves;[c] do this so that it may go well[d] for you and you may live long in the land.[e]

New International Version
5 A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the Lord your God detests anyone who does this.
6 If you come across a bird’s nest beside the road, either in a tree or on the ground, and the mother is sitting on the young or on the eggs, do not take the mother with the young.(A) 7 You may take the young, but be sure to let the mother go,(B) so that it may go well with you and you may have a long life.(C)
