¶ When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: [but] he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he hath taken.
When a man {H376} hath taken {H3947} a new {H2319} wife {H802}, he shall not go out {H3318} to war {H6635}, neither shall he be charged {H5674} with any business {H1697}: but he shall be free {H5355} at home {H1004} one {H259} year {H8141}, and shall cheer up {H8055} his wife {H802} which he hath taken {H3947}.
"If a man has recently married his wife, he is not to be subject to military service; he is to be free of external obligations and left at home for one year to make his new wife happy.
If a man is newly married, he must not be sent to war or be pressed into any duty. For one year he is free to stay at home and bring joy to the wife he has married.
When a man taketh a new wife, he shall not go out in the host, neither shall he be charged with any business: he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he hath taken.
