7. you shall certainly let the mother go, but the young you may take for yourself, in order that it may be well with you and that you may prolong your days.

8. "When you build a new house, you shall make a parapet for your roof, so that you will not bring bloodguilt on your house if anyone falls from it.

9. "You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, or all the produce of the seed which you have sown and the increase of the vineyard will become defiled.

10. "You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.

11. "You shall not wear a material mixed of wool and linen together.

12. "You shall make yourself tassels on the four corners of your garment with which you cover yourself.

13. "If any man takes a wife and goes in to her and then turns against her,

14. and charges her with shameful deeds and publicly defames her, and says, 'I took this woman, but when I came near her, I did not find her a virgin,'

15. then the girl's father and her mother shall take and bring out the evidence of the girl's virginity to the elders of the city at the gate.

16. The girl's father shall say to the elders, 'I gave my daughter to this man for a wife, but he turned against her;

17. and behold, he has charged her with shameful deeds, saying, "I did not find your daughter a virgin." But this is the evidence of my daughter's virginity.' And they shall spread the garment before the elders of the city.
