Deuteronomy 22:25
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But if the man encounters a betrothed woman in the open country, and he overpowers her and lies with her, only the man who has done this must die.
In context
23 If there is a virgin pledged in marriage to a man, and another man encounters her in the city and sleeps with her,
24 you must take both of them out to the gate of that city and stone them to death—the young woman because she did not cry out in the city, and the man because he has violated his neighbor’s wife. So you must purge the evil from among you.
25 But if the man encounters a betrothed woman in the open country, and he overpowers her and lies with her, only the man who has done this must die.
26 Do nothing to the young woman, because she has committed no sin worthy of death. This case is just like one in which a man attacks his neighbor and murders him.
27 When he found her in the field, the betrothed woman cried out, but there was no one to save her.
