Deuteronomy 22:16-18

Good News Translation

¹⁶ Her father will say to them, ‘I gave my daughter to this man in marriage, and now he doesn't want her. ¹⁷ He has made false charges against her, saying that she was not a virgin when he married her. But here is the proof that my daughter was a virgin; look at the bloodstains on the wedding sheet!’ ¹⁸ Then the town leaders are to take the husband and beat him.
