Deuteronomy 22:5-12 - Preserving Natural Distinctions

⁵ A woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment, for whoever does these things is an abomination to LORD thy God.

⁶ If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the dam sitting upon the young or upon the eggs, thou shall not take the dam with the young. ⁷ Thou shall surely let the dam go, but the young thou may take to thyself, that it may be well with thee, and that thou may prolong thy days. ⁸ When thou build a new house, then thou shall make a guard rail for thy roof, that thou not bring blood upon thy house, if any man falls from there. ⁹ Thou shall not sow thy vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest the whole fruit be forfeited: the seed which thou have sown, and the increase of the vineyard. ¹⁰ Thou shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together. ¹¹ Thou shall not wear a mingled stuff, wool and linen together. ¹² Thou shall make for thee fringes upon the four borders of thy clothing, with which thou cover thyself.
