Deuteronomy 21:13

21:13 discard the clothing she was wearing when captured, 1  and stay 2  in your house, lamenting for her father and mother for a full month. After that you may have sexual relations 3  with her and become her husband and she your wife.

Deuteronomy 29:13

29:13 Today he will affirm that you are his people and that he is your God, 4  just as he promised you and as he swore by oath to your ancestors 5  Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

1 tn Heb “she is to…remove the clothing of her captivity” (cf. NASB); NRSV “discard her captive’s garb.”

2 tn Heb “sit”; KJV, NASB, NRSV “remain.”

3 tn Heb “go unto,” a common Hebrew euphemism for sexual relations.

4 tn Heb “in order to establish you today to him for a people and he will be to you for God.” Verses 10-13 are one long sentence in Hebrew. The translation divides this into two sentences for stylistic reasons.

5 tn Heb “fathers” (also in v. 25).
