This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
13 If a man takes a wife and sleeps with her, then hates her 14 and accuses her of shameful things, destroying her reputation and claiming that she hadn’t been a virgin, 15 then the young woman’s parents must show the evidence of her virginity[fn] to the elders at the city gate. 16 The young woman’s father must tell the elders how he gave his daughter to the man as a wife, but now he’s rejected her 17 and made shameful accusations about her not being a virgin. Then the parents must spread out that cloth and show it to the city elders. 18 Then the city elders must punish that man 19 and fine him a hundred silver coins to be paid to the young woman’s father for defaming an Israeli virgin. Then she’ll remain as his wife and he’ll be prohibited from ever divorcing her.
20 However, if the accusation was true and the young woman hadn’t been a virgin, 21 then they must take her to the doorway of her father’s house. Then the men from that city must execute her by throwing rocks at her, because she’s done a disgraceful thing in Yisrael—committing fornication while she still lived in her father’s house. That’s how you’ll remove evil from your country.
22 If a man is discovered sleeping with another man’s wife, then both of them must be executed. That’s how you’ll remove evil from Yisrael.
23 If a young woman is engaged to a man, and another man sleeps with her, 24 then you must execute both of them at the city gate by throwing rocks at them—the young woman because she didn’t scream, and the man for defiling another man’s fiancée.
25 If the man found the young woman out in the countryside and overpowers her and rapes her, then the man must be executed 26 but don’t do anything to that woman because she’s not worthy of death. (This is similar to the case of a man murdering another man out in the countryside.) 27 When that man found her out in the countryside, then she would have cried out for help, but no one was there to save her.
28 If a man overpowers a young woman who’s not engaged, and rapes her, and it’s discovered,[ref] 29 that man must pay her father fifty silver coins, and she’ll become his wife because he’s violated her. He’ll then be prohibited from ever divorcing her.
30 A man must never sleep with any of his father’s wives because that would expose his father’s nakedness.[ref]
22:15 Presumably, the blood-stained sheet.
Exo 22:16-17:
16 If a man entices a young woman who’s not engaged, and sleeps with her, he must certainly pay the bride price to her father for her to become his wife.[ref] 17 If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, the man must still pay the normal bride price in cash.
Lev 18:8:
20:11:
Deu 27:20:
20 ‘Any man who sleeps with a wife of his father will be cursed because he’s exposed his father’s nakedness.’
Then the people must reply, ‘Let it be so.’
