Deuteronomy 22:18-19

Context
22:18 The elders of that city must then seize the man and punish 1  him. 22:19 They will fine him one hundred shekels of silver and give them to the young woman’s father, for the man who made the accusation 2  ruined the reputation 3  of an Israelite virgin. She will then become his wife and he may never divorce her as long as he lives.

1 tn Heb “discipline.”

2 tn Heb “for he”; the referent (the man who made the accusation) has been specified in the translation to avoid confusion with the young woman’s father, the last-mentioned male.

3 tn Heb “brought forth a bad name.”
