Deuteronomy 22:5-12
New American Standard Bible
5 “A woman shall not wear a man’s clothing, nor shall a man put on a woman’s clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God.
6 “If you happen to come upon a bird’s nest along the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs in it, and the mother sitting on the young or on the eggs, (A)you shall not take the mother with the young; 7 you shall certainly let the mother go, but the young you may take for yourself, (B)in order that it may go well for you and that you may prolong your days.
8 “When you build a new house, you shall make a [a]parapet for your roof, so that you will not bring guilt for bloodshed on your house if anyone falls from it.
9 “(C)You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, otherwise [b]all the produce of the seed which you have sown and the yield of the vineyard will be [c]forfeited to the sanctuary.
10 “(D)You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.
11 “(E)You shall not wear a material of wool and linen combined together.
12 “(F)You shall make yourself tassels on the four corners of your garment with which you cover yourself.
