And so thou shalt put evil away from thee. If a
man be found lying with a woman, that hath a wedded husband, then
let them die either other of them: both the man that lie with the
wife and also the wife: so shalt thou put away evil from Israel.
If a maid be handfasted unto an husband, and then a man find her
in the town and lay with her, then ye shall bring them both out
unto the gates of that same city and shall stone them with stones
to death: The damsel because she cried not being in the city: And
the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife, and thou
shalt put away evil from thee. But if a man find a betrothed
damsel in the field and force her and lie with her: Then the man
that lay with her shall die alone, and unto the damsel thou shalt
do no harm: because there is in the damsel no cause of death. For
as when a man riseth against his neighbour and slayeth him, even
so is this matter. For he found her in the fields and the
betrothed damsel cried: but there was no man to succour her. If a
man find a maid that is not betrothed and take her and lie with
her and be found: Then the man that lay with her shall give unto
the damsel's father fifty sicles of silver. And she shall be his
wife, because he hath humbled her, and he may not put her away all
his days.
