Exodus 21:10 in Context — Exodus 21

8 Si elle déplaît à son maître, qui s’était proposé de la prendre pour femme, il facilitera son rachat; mais il n’aura pas le pouvoir de la vendre à des étrangers, après lui avoir été infidèle.

9 S’il la destine à son fils, il agira envers elle selon le droit des filles.

10 S’il prend une autre femme, il ne retranchera rien pour la première à la nourriture, au vêtement, et au droit conjugal.

11 Et s’il ne fait pas pour elle ces trois choses, elle pourra sortir sans rien payer, sans donner de l’argent.

12 Celui qui frappera un homme mortellement sera puni de mort.
