But when I slept with her, I discovered she wasn’t a virgin.” 15 Then the young woman’s parents must bring proof that she was a virgin. They must give the proof to the elders at the gate of the town.

Marriage Violations
13 If a man takes a wife and, after sleeping with her(A), dislikes her 14 and slanders her and gives her a bad name, saying, “I married this woman, but when I approached her, I did not find proof of her virginity,” 15 then the young woman’s father and mother shall bring to the town elders at the gate(B) proof that she was a virgin.
