In context

13And if anyone should take a wife, and dwell with her, and hate her,

14and attach to her reproachful words, and bring against her an evil name, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her I found not her tokens of virginity:

— Deuteronomy 22:15 —

16And the father of the damsel shall say to the elders, I gave this my daughter to this man for a wife;

17and now he has hated her, and attaches reproachful words to her, saying, I have not found tokens of virginity with thy daughter; and these are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity. And they shall unfold the garment before the elders of the city.
