King James Bible - Deuteronomy 25:7

And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then let his brother's wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband's brother.

World English Bible

If the man doesn't want to take his brother's wife, then his brother's wife shall go up to the gate to the elders, and say, "My husband's brother refuses to raise up to his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband's brother to me."

Douay-Rheims - Deuteronomy 25:7

But if he will not take his brother's wife, who by law belongeth to him, the woman shall go to the gate of the city, and call upon the ancients, and say: My husband's brother refuseth to raise up his brother's name in Israel: and will not take me to wife.

Webster's Bible Translation

And if the man shall not like to take his brother's wife, then let his brother's wife go up to the gate to the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up to his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband's brother.

SEV Biblia, Chapter 25:7

Y si el hombre no quisiere tomar a su cuñada, irá entonces la cuñada suya a la puerta a los ancianos, y dirá: Mi cuñado no quiere suscitar nombre en Israel a su hermano; no quiere emparentar conmigo.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 7. And the man like not to take his brother’s
wife , etc.] The provision here made by this law, when this was the case, is such as did not take place before it became a law; for then Onan would have taken the advantage of it, and refused marrying his brother’s wife, which it is plain was not agreeable to him, ( Genesis 38:9); as many do now on one account or another. Leo of Modena says, “it was anciently accounted the more laudable thing to take her, than to release her; but now the corruption of the times, and the hardness of men’s hearts, are such, as that they only look after worldly ends, either of riches, or of the beauty of the woman; so that there are very few that in this case will marry a brother’s widow, especially among the Dutch and Italian Jews, but they always release her:” then let his brother’s wife go up to the gate ; to the gate of the city, where the judges sit for public affairs; to the gate of the sanhedrim, or court of judicature, as the Targum of Jonathan; and this affair was cognizable by the bench of three judges, and might be dispatched by them; for so it is said f454 , “the plucking off the shoe, and the refusal of marriage, are by three:” i.e. three judges, which was the lowest court of judicature with the Jews: unto the elders, and say ; which according to the above Targum were to be five wise men, of which three were to be judges, and two witnesses; and she was to say in the Hebrew language, in which, according to the Misnah f455 , she was to pronounce what follows: my husband’s brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband’s brother ; that is, in a few words, he will not marry her.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 5-12 - The
custom here regulated seems to have been in the Jewish law in orde to keep inheritances distinct; now it is unlawful.
