「老師，摩西說：『某人若死了，沒有孩子，他弟弟該娶他的妻子，為哥哥生子立後。』從前，在我們這裏有兄弟七人，第一個娶了妻，死了，沒有孩子，撇下妻子給弟弟。第二、第三，直到第七個，都是如此。後來，那婦人也死了。

「兄弟住在一起，若其中一個死了，沒有兒子，死者的妻子就不可出去嫁給陌生人。她丈夫的兄弟應當盡兄弟的本分，娶她為妻，與她同房。婦人生的長子要歸在已故兄弟的名下，免得他的名在以色列中塗去了。那人若不情願娶他兄弟的妻子，他兄弟的妻子就要上到城門長老那裏，說：『我丈夫的兄弟拒絕在以色列中為他的兄弟留名，不願意為我盡兄弟的本分。』本城的長老就要召那人來，跟他談話。若他堅持說：『我不情願娶她。』他兄弟的妻子就要在長老眼前來到那人跟前，脫下他腳上的鞋，吐唾沫在他臉上，回應說：『凡不為兄弟建立家室的都要這樣待他。』
