TOJB2011 ▾Devarim ▾22 ▾Devarim 221Thou shalt not see thy brotherʼs shor or his seh go astray, and ignore them; thou shalt in any case bring them back unto thy brother.2And if thy brother be not near unto thee, or if thou know him not, then thou shalt bring it unto thine own bais, and it shall be with thee until thy brother seek after it, and thou shalt restore it to him again.3In like manner shalt thou do with his chamor; and so shalt thou do with his raiment; and with all lost things of thy brotherʼs, which he hath lost, and thou hast found, shalt thou do likewise; thou mayest not ignore it.4Thou shalt not see thy brotherʼs chamor or his shor fall down by the road, and ignore them; thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again.5The isha shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a gever (man) neither shall a gever put on simlat isha (garment of a woman) ; for all that do so are to'avat unto Hashem Eloheicha.6If a birdʼs ken (nest) chance to be before thee in the way in any tree, or on the ground, whether they be young ones, or eggs, and the mother is roosting upon the young, or upon the eggs, thou shalt not take the mother with the young;7But thou shalt in any wise let the mother go, and take the young to thee; that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy yamim.8When thou buildest a bais chadash, then thou shalt make a parapet for thy roof, that thou bring not dahm (blood guiltiness) upon thine bais, if any fall from thence.9Thou shalt not sow thy kerem with different seeds; lest the fruit of thy zera which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy kerem, be defiled.10Thou shalt not plow with a shor and a chamor together.11Thou shalt not wear a garment of Shaanetz, as of woolen and linen together.12Thou shalt make thee gedilim (fringes, tzitzis, twisted threads) upon the four corners of thy garment, wherewith thou coverest thyself.13If any ish take an isha, and go in unto her, and hate her,14And give occasions of speech against her, and bring up a shem rah (bad name) upon her, and say, I took this isha, and when I came to her, I found her with no betulim (proofs of virginity) ;15Then shall the av of the na'arah, and her em, take and bring forth the betulim (proofs of virginity) unto the zekenim of the town in the sha'arah (gate) ;16And the avi hana'arah shall say unto the zekenim, I gave my bat unto this ish as isha (wife) and he hateth her;17And, hinei, he hath given occasions of speech against her, saying, I found not thy bat with betulim; and yet these are my batʼs betulim. And they shall spread the simlah (clothing) before the zekenim of the town.18And the zekenim of that town shall take that ish and punish him;19And they shall fine him a hundred shekels of kesef, and give them unto the avi hana'arah, because he hath brought a shem rah (bad name) upon a betulat Yisroel; and she shall be his isha; he may not put her away all his yamim.20But if this thing be emes, and the betulim be not found for the na'arah;21Then they shall bring out the na'arah to the door of her bais avi, and the anashim of her town shall stone her with avanim that she die; because she hath committed an outrage in Yisroel, to play the whore in her bais avi; so shalt thou put away the rah from among you.22If an ish be found lying with an isha married to a husband then they shall both of them die, both the ish that lay with the isha, and the isha; so shalt thou put away the rah from Yisroel.23If a na'arah that is a betulah be betrothed unto a husband, and an ish find her in the town, and lie with her;24Then ye shall bring them both out unto the sha'ar of that town, and ye shall stone them with avanim that they die; the na'arah, because she cried not, being in the town; and the ish, because he hath humbled his neighborʼs isha; so thou shalt put away the rah from among you.25But if the ish find a na'arah hame'orasah (betrothed woman) in the sadeh, and the ish overpower her, and lie with her; then the ish only that lay with her shall die.26But unto the na'arah thou shalt do nothing; there is in the na'arah no chet mavet (sin worthy of death) ; for as when an ish riseth against his neighbor, and slayeth him, even so is this matter;27For he found her in the sadeh, and the na'arah hame'orasah cried, and there was no moshia (savior) for her.28If an ish find a na'arah that is a betulah, which is not orasah (betrothed) , and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;29Then the ish that lay with her shall give unto the avi hana'arah fifty [shekels] of kesef, and she shall be his isha; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his yamim.Devarim 21Devarim 23
