20b but if ye shall find that any persons have left their companions for the sake of adultery, and they themselves are the offenders, and their companions are living, they shall be cast out from among you.
20c And again I say unto you, that ye shall be watchful and careful, with all inquiry, that ye receive none such among you if they are married, and if they are not married, they shall repent of all their sins, or ye shall not receive them.
21a And again, every person who belongeth to this church of Christ shall observe to keep all the commandments and covenants of the church.
21b And it shall come to pass, that if any persons among you shall kill, they shall be delivered up and dealt with according to the laws of the land;
21c for remember that he hath no forgiveness; and it shall be proven according to the laws of the land.
22a And if any man or woman shall commit adultery, he or she shall be tried before two elders of the church or more, and every word shall be established against him or her by two witnesses of the church, and not of the enemy;
22b but if there are more than two witnesses it is better; but he or she shall be condemned by the mouth of two witnesses,
22c and the elders shall lay the case before the church, and the church shall lift up their hands against him or her, that they may be dealt with according to the law of God.
22d And if it can be, it is necessary that the bishop is present also.
22e And thus ye shall do in all cases which shall come before you.
22f And if a man or woman shall rob, he or she shall be delivered up unto the law of the land.
