Across 30 verses, Deuteronomy 22 strings together case laws on lost animals, mixed vineyards, and rooftop safety before turning to marriage and virginity disputes judged at the city gate.
Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
You shall not see your brother’s ox or sheep go astray And hide yourself from them
You shall in any case bring them again to your brother If your brother be not near to you Then you shall bring it to your own house
You shall do likewise with his donkey Or with his raiment Or with any lost thing of your brother’s
Which he has lost and you have found You may not hide yourself A woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man
Neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment For all that do so are an abomination to the LORD If a bird’s nest chance to be before you
In any tree or on the ground With young ones or with eggs And the dam sitting on the young or on the eggs
You shall not take the dam with the young You shall surely let the dam go And take the young to yourself
That it may be well with you And that you may prolong your days Do not hate your brother in your heart
But you shall surely rebuke your neighbor And not bear sin because of him
