5 Whan brethren dwell together, and one of them dye with out children, then shall not ye wife of the deed take a straunge man without, but hir kynsman shal go in vnto her, and take her to wyfe:
6 and the first sonne that she beareth, shal he set vp after the name of his brother which is deed, that his name be not put out of Israel.
7 But yf the man wyl not take his kynswoman, then shal his kinswoman go vp vnder the gate to the Elders, and saye: My kynsman refuseth to stere vp a name vnto his brother in Israel, and wyl not marye me.
8 Then shal the Elders of the cite call him, and comen with him. Yf he stonde then and saye: I wyl not take her,
9 then shal his kynswoman steppe forth vnto him before the Elders, and lowse a shue fro his fote, and spyt in his face, and shal answere, and saye: Thus shal it be done vnto euery man, that wyl not builde his brothers house.
10 And his name shalbe called in Israel, the vnshodd house.
