8. “The elders of his city shall then call him and speak to him, and he shall stand and say, ‘I have no desire to take her,’

9. then his brother’s wife shall come to him in the presence of the elders, and remove his sandal from his foot, and shall spit in his face, and answer and say, ‘Thus it is done to the man who does not build up his brother’s house.’

10. “And in Yisra’ĕl his name shall be called, ‘The house of him who had his sandal removed.’

11. “When men fight with one another, and the wife of one shall draw near to rescue her husband from the hand of the one attacking him, and shall put out her hand and seize him by the genitals,

12. then you shall cut off her hand – your eye does not pardon.

13. “You shall not have in your bag differing weights, a heavy and a light.
