    13If a man marries a woman, has relations with her, and then turns against her,

    14accusing her of misconduct and giving her a bad name by saying, 'I married this woman, but when I came to her, I did not find proof of her virginity,'

    15then the young woman’s father and mother shall bring the proof of her virginity to the elders at the gate of the town.

    16The father shall say to the elders, 'I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife, and now he has turned against her.'

    17And now he has made false accusations against her, saying, 'I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.' But here is the evidence of my daughter's virginity.' Then they shall spread out the cloth before the elders of the city.

    18The elders of that city shall take the man and discipline him.

    19They shall fine him a hundred shekels of silver and give them to the young woman's father, because this man has given an Israelite virgin a bad name. She shall remain his wife, and he can never divorce her as long as he lives.

    21then they shall bring the young woman to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones. She has committed a disgraceful act in Israel by being promiscuous while in her father’s house. You must purge the evil from among you.
