⁶ If you find a bird's nest near the road, in a tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs in it. The mother could be sitting on the young or on eggs. Do not take the mother with the young. ⁷ Let the mother go. You may take the young. Let the mother go. May things go well with you and you may prolong your days. ⁸ When you build a new house make a parapet (wall) for your roof. This way you will not bring bloodguilt on your house if anyone falls from it. ⁹ Do not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, or all the produce of the seed that you have sown and the increase of the vineyard will become defiled. ¹⁰ Do not plow with a bull and a donkey together. ¹¹ Do not wear a material mixed with wool and linen together. ¹² You should attach tassels to the four corners of your cloaks.
