Deuteronomy 21:10-14
New King James Version
Female Captives
10 “When you go out to war against your enemies, and the Lord your God delivers them into your hand, and you take them captive, 11 and you see among the captives a beautiful woman, and desire her and would take her for your (A)wife, 12 then you shall bring her home to your house, and she shall (B)shave her head and trim her nails. 13 She shall put off the clothes of her captivity, remain in your house, and (C)mourn her father and her mother a full month; after that you may go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife. 14 And it shall be, if you have no delight in her, then you shall set her free, but you certainly shall not sell her for money; you shall not treat her brutally, because you have (D)humbled her.
