Deuteronomy 22:14

22:14 accusing her of impropriety ¹  and defaming her reputation ²  by saying, “I married this woman but when I had sexual relations ³  with her I discovered she was not a virgin!”

[22:14]  ¹ tn Heb “deeds of things”; NRSV “makes up charges against her”; NIV “slanders her.”

[22:14]  ² tn Heb “brings against her a bad name”; NIV “gives her a bad name.”

[22:14]  ³ tn Heb “drew near to her.” This is another Hebrew euphemism for having sexual relations.
