Chapter 22
Deut AB 22:1  When you see the calf of your brother or his sheep wandering in the way, you shall not overlook them; you shall by all means turn them back to your brother, and you shall restore them to him.
Deut AB 22:2  And if your brother is not near you, or if you do not know him, you shall bring it into your own house; and it shall be with you until your brother shall seek them, and you shall restore them to him.
Deut AB 22:3  Thus shall you do to his donkey, and thus shall you do to his garment, and thus shall you do to everything that your brother has lost; whatsoever things have been lost by him, and you have found, you shall not have power to overlook.
Deut AB 22:4  You shall not see the donkey of your brother, or his calf, fallen in the way; you shall not overlook them, you shall surely help him to raise them up.
Deut AB 22:5  The clothing of a man shall not be on a woman, neither shall a man put on a woman's dress; for everyone that does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God.
Deut AB 22:6  And if you should come upon a brood of birds before your face in the way or upon any tree, or upon the earth, young or eggs, and the mother is brooding on the young or the eggs, you shall not take the mother with the young ones.
Deut AB 22:7  You shall by all means let the mother go, but you shall take the young to yourself; that it may be well with you, and that you may live long.
Deut AB 22:8  If you should build a new house, then shall you make a parapet to your house; so you shall not bring blood-guiltiness upon your house, if one should in any way fall from it.
Deut AB 22:9  You shall not sow your vineyard with different kinds of seed, lest the fruit be defiled, and whatsoever seed you may sow, with the fruit of your vineyard.
Deut AB 22:10  You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.
Deut AB 22:11  You shall not wear a mingled garment, woolen and linen together.
Deut AB 22:12  You shall make fringes on the four borders of your garments, with whatever you may be clothed with.
Deut AB 22:13  And if anyone should take a wife, and dwell with her, and hate her,
Deut AB 22:14  and attach to her reproachful words, and bring against her an evil name, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her I found not her tokens of virginity;
Deut AB 22:15  then the father and the mother of the young woman shall take and bring out the young woman's tokens of virginity to the elders of the city to the gate.
Deut AB 22:16  And the father of the young woman shall say to the elders, I gave this my daughter to this man for a wife;
Deut AB 22:17  and now he has hated her, and attaches reproachful words to her, saying, I have not found tokens of virginity with your daughter; and these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity. And they shall unfold the garment before the elders of the city.
Deut AB 22:18  And the elders of that city shall take that man, and shall chastise him,
Deut AB 22:19  and shall fine him a hundred shekels, and shall give them to the father of the young woman, because he has brought forth an evil name against a virgin of Israel; and she shall be his wife: he shall never be able to put her away.
Deut AB 22:20  But if this report be true, and the tokens of virginity are not found for the young woman;
Deut AB 22:21  then shall they bring out the young woman to the doors of her father's house, and shall stone her with stones, and she shall die; because she has wrought folly among the children of Israel, to defile the house of her father by harlotry: so you shall remove the evil one from among you.
Deut AB 22:22  And if a man be found lying with a woman married to a man, you shall kill them both, the man that lay with the woman, and the woman; so shall you remove the wicked one out of Israel.
Deut AB 22:23  And if there be a young woman espoused to a man, and a man should have found her in the city and have lain with her;
Deut AB 22:24  you shall bring them both out to the gate of their city, and they shall be stoned with stones, and they shall die; the young woman, because she cried not in the city; and the man, because he humbled his neighbor's spouse: so shall you remove the evil one from yourselves.
Deut AB 22:25  But if a man find in the field a young woman that is betrothed, and he should force her and lie with her, you shall slay the man that lay with her only.
Deut AB 22:26  And the young woman has not committed a sin worthy of death; as if a man should rise up against his neighbor, and slay him, so is this thing;
Deut AB 22:27  because he found her in the field; the betrothed young woman cried, and there was none to help her.
Deut AB 22:28  And if anyone should find a young virgin who has not been betrothed, and should force her and lie with her, and be found,
Deut AB 22:29  the man who lay with her shall give to the father of the damsel fifty silver shekels, and she shall be his wife, because he has humbled her; he shall never be able to put her away.
Deut AB 22:30  A man shall not take his father's wife, and shall not uncover his father's bed.
