And when she is departed, and marrieth another husband,

Observe diligently that thou incur not the stroke of the leprosy, but thou shalt do whatsoever the priests of the Levitical race shall teach thee, according to what I have commanded them, and fulfill thou it carefully.

But then shalt stand without, and he shall bring out to thee what he hath.
12 Tedae tekah hlang ni a mang a daeng oeh atah a hnohol te yalh sak boeh.
But if he be poor, the pledge shall not lodge with thee that night,

But thou shalt pay him the price of his labour the same day, before the going down of the sun, because he is poor, and with it maintaineth his life: lest he cry against thee to the Lord, and it be reputed to thee for a sin.

Remember that thou also wast a bondman in Egypt, and therefore I command thee to do this thing.
