Marrying a Captive Woman
10 If thou go forth to fight against thine enemies, and our Lord thy God deliver them in thy hand and thou lead them away captive,
11 and seest in the number of the captives a beautiful woman, and lovest her, and wilt have her to wife,
12 thou shalt bring her into thy house: who shall shave her hair, and pare her nails,
13 and put off the raiment wherein she was taken: and sitting in thy house, shall mourn her father and mother one month: and afterward thou shalt enter unto her, and shalt sleep with her, and she shall be thy wife.
14 But if afterward she content not thy mind, thou shall let her go free, neither canst thou sell her for money, nor oppress her by might: because thou hast humbled her.
