15 Então o pai da moça e sua mãe tomarão, e tirarão os sinais da virgindade da virgem aos anciãos da cidade, na porta.

16 E dirá o pai da moça aos anciãos: Eu dei minha filha a este homem por mulher, e ele a aborrece;

17 E, eis que, ele lhe põe acusações de algumas coisas, dizendo: Não achei tua filha virgem; porém, eis aqui os sinais da virgindade de minha filha. E estenderão o lençol diante dos anciãos da cidade.

18 Então os anciãos da cidade tomarão ao homem e o castigarão;

19 E lhe hão de impor pena em cem peças de prata, as quais darão ao pai da moça, porquanto espalhou má fama sobre virgem de Israel: e a há de ter por mulher, e não poderá despedi-la em todos os seus dias.
