    14accusing her of impropriety and defaming her reputation by saying,“I married this woman but when I approached her for marital relations I discovered she was not a virgin!”

    15Then the father and mother of the young woman must produce the evidence of virginity for the elders of the city at the gate.

    16The young woman’s father must say to the elders,“I gave my daughter to this man and he has rejected her.

    17Moreover, he has raised accusations of impropriety by saying,‘I discovered your daughter was not a virgin,’ but this is the evidence of my daughter’s virginity!” The cloth must then be spread out before the city’s elders.

    18The elders of that city must then seize the man and punish him.

    19They will fine him one hundred shekels of silver and give them to the young woman’s father, for the man who made the accusation ruined the reputation of an Israelite virgin. She will then become his wife and he may never divorce her as long as he lives.

    20But if the accusation is true and the young woman was not a virgin,

    21the men of her city must bring the young woman to the door of her father’s house and stone her to death, for she has done a disgraceful thing in Israel by behaving like a prostitute while living in her father’s house. In this way you will purge evil from among you.
