" But if the man finds the lady who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lay with her shall die; "

Deuteronomy 22:25

menu_book Verse in Context

23 If there is a young lady who is a virgin pledged to be married to a husband, and a man finds her in the city, and lies with her,

24 then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones; the lady, because she didn’t cry, being in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbor’s wife. So you shall remove the evil from among you.

25 But if the man finds the lady who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lay with her shall die;

26 but to the lady you shall do nothing. There is in the lady no sin worthy of death; for as when a man rises against his neighbor and kills him, even so is this matter;

27 for he found her in the field, the pledged to be married lady cried, and there was no one to save her.
