Deuteronomy 22:8-15
New American Standard Bible
12You shall make yourself tassels on the four corners of your garment with which you cover yourself.
13If any man takes a wife and goes in to her and then turns against her,
14and he charges her with shameful behavior and publicly defames her, and says, ‘I took this woman, but when I came near her, I did not find her to have evidence of virginity,’
15then the girl’s father and her mother shall take and bring out the evidence of the girl’s virginity to the elders of the city at the gate.
King James Version
Chapter 22
8When thou buildest a new house, then thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof, that thou bring not blood upon thine house, if any man fall from thence. 9Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest the fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard, be defiled. 10Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together. 11Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen and linen together. 12Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself. 13If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her, 14And give occasions of speech against her, and bring up an evil name upon her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found her not a maid: 15Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate:Christian Standard Bible

8If you build a new house, make a railing around your roof, so that you don’t bring bloodguilt on your house if someone falls from it. 9Do not plant your vineyard with two types of seed; otherwise, the entire harvest, both the crop you plant and the produce of the vineyard, will be defiled. 10Do not plow with an ox and a donkey together. 11Do not wear clothes made of both wool and linen. 12Make tassels on the four corners of the outer garment you wear.
13"If a man marries a woman, has sexual relations with her, and comes to hate her,
14and accuses her of shameful conduct, and gives her a bad name, saying, ‘I married this woman and was intimate with her, but I didn’t find any evidence of her virginity,’
15the young woman’s father and mother will take the evidence of her virginity and bring it to the city elders at the city gate.
