05:021:006 And all the elders of that city, that are
next unto the slain
man,
shall wash their hands over the heifer that is beheaded
in
the valley:
05:021:007 And they shall answer and say, Our hands
have not shed this
blood,
neither have our eyes seen it.
05:021:008 Be merciful, O lord, unto thy people
Israel, whom thou hast
redeemed,
and lay not innocent blood unto thy people of
Israel’s
charge. And the blood shall be forgiven them.
05:021:009 So shalt thou put away the guilt of innocent
blood from among
you,
when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight
of
the
lord.
05:021:010 When thou goest forth to war against thine
enemies, and the
lord
thy God hath delivered them into thine hands, and thou
hast
taken them captive,
05:021:011 And seest among the captives a beautiful
woman, and hast a
desire
unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy wife;
05:021:012 Then thou shalt bring her home to thine
house, and she shall
shave
her head, and pare her nails;
05:021:013 And she shall put the raiment of her captivity
from off her,
and
shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father
and her
mother
a full month: and after that thou shalt go in
unto her,
and
be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
05:021:014 And it shall be, if thou have no delight
in her, then thou
shalt
let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell
her
at
all for money, thou shalt not make merchandise of her,
because
thou hast humbled her.
05:021:015 If a man have two wives, one beloved, and
another hated, and
they
have born him children, both the beloved and the hated;
and
if the firstborn son be hers that was hated:
05:021:016 Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons
to inherit that
which
he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved
firstborn
before the son of the hated, which is indeed the
firstborn:
05:021:017 But he shall acknowledge the son of the
hated for the
firstborn,
by giving him a double portion of all that he hath:
for
he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the
firstborn
is his.
05:021:018 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious
son, which will not
obey
the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother,
and
that,
when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto
them:
05:021:019 Then shall his father and his mother lay
hold on him, and
bring
him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate
of
his place;
