20. If a man has sexual relations with a female slave who has been acquired by another man but has not yet been redeemed or given her freedom, an investigation shall be made. They shall not be put to death, because she has not been freed.
21. The man shall bring to the entrance of the tent of meeting as his reparation to the Lord a ram as a reparation offering.
22. With the ram of the reparation offering the priest shall make atonement before the Lord for the wrong the man has committed, so that he will be forgiven for the wrong he has committed.
23. When you come into the land and plant any fruit tree there, first look upon its fruit as if it were uncircumcised. For three years, it shall be uncircumcised for you; it may not be eaten.
24. In the fourth year, however, all of its fruit shall be dedicated to the Lord in joyous celebration.
25. Not until the fifth year may you eat its fruit, to increase the yield for you. I, the Lord, am your God.
26. Do not eat anything with the blood still in it. Do not recite charms or practice soothsaying.
27. Do not clip your hair at the temples, nor spoil the edges of your beard.
