¹⁹ and they shall fine him a hundred shekels^[a] of silver and give them to the father of the young woman, because he has brought a bad name upon a virgin^[b] of Israel. And she shall be his wife. ^(A)He may not divorce her all his days.

⁸ He said to them, “Because of your ^(A)hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. ^9 (B)And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.”^[a]

²⁹ then the man who lay with her shall give to the father of the young woman fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he has violated her. He may not divorce her all his days.

Laws Concerning Divorce

24 “When a man takes a wife and marries her, if then she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found some indecency in her, and ^(A)he writes her a certificate of divorce and puts it in her hand and sends her out of his house, and she departs out of his house, ² and if she goes and becomes another man's wife, ³ and the latter man hates her and writes her a certificate of divorce and puts it in her hand and sends her out of his house, or if the latter man dies, who took her to be his wife, ⁴ then ^(B)her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after she has been defiled, for that is an abomination before the Lord. And you shall not bring sin upon the land that the Lord your God is giving you for an inheritance.
