Deuteronomy 21:11
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
if you see a beautiful woman among them, and you desire her and want to take her as your wife,
In context
9 So you shall purge from among you the guilt of shedding innocent blood, since you have done what is right in the eyes of the LORD.
10 When you go to war against your enemies and the LORD your God delivers them into your hand and you take them captive,
11 if you see a beautiful woman among them, and you desire her and want to take her as your wife,
12 then you shall bring her into your house. She must shave her head, trim her nails,
13 and put aside the clothing of her captivity. After she has lived in your house a full month and mourned her father and mother, you may have relations with her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife.
