"But if this ^[l](j)charge is true, that the girl was not found a virgin,

then they shall bring out the girl to the doorway of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her ^[m]to death because she has ^(k)committed an act of folly in Israel by playing the harlot in her father's house; thus ^(l)you shall purge the evil from among you.

"^(m)If a man is found lying with a married woman, then both of them shall die, the man who lay with the woman, and the woman; thus you shall purge the evil from Israel.

"⁽ⁿ⁾If there is a girl who is a virgin engaged to a man, and another man finds her in the city and lies with her,

then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city and you shall stone them ^[n]to death; the girl, because she did not cry out in the city, and the man, because he has violated his neighbor's wife. Thus you shall purge the evil from among you.
