10 “When the Lord your God gives you victory in battle and you take prisoners,
11 you may see among them a beautiful woman that you like and want to marry.
12 Take her to your home, where she will shave her head, cut her fingernails,
13 and change her clothes. She is to stay in your home and mourn for her parents for a month; after that, you may marry her.
14 Later, if you no longer want her, you are to let her go free. Since you forced her to have intercourse with you, you cannot treat her as a slave and sell her.
15 “Suppose a man has two wives and they both bear him sons, but the first son is not the child of his favourite wife.
16 When the man decides how he is going to divide his property among his children, he is not to show partiality to the son of his favourite wife by giving him the share that belongs to the firstborn son.
