Hebrew ואם־לא יחפץ האיש לקחת את־יבמתו ועלתה יבמתו השערה אל־הזקנים ואמרה מאין יבמי להקים לאחיו שם בישראל לא אבה יבמי׃
Greek εαν δε μη βουληται ο ανθρωπος λαβειν την γυναικα του αδελφου αυτου και αναβησεται η γυνη επι την πυλην επι την γερουσιαν και ερει ου θελει ο αδελφος του ανδρος μου αναστησαι το ονομα του αδελφου αυτου εν ισραηλ ουκ ηθελησεν ο αδελφος του ανδρος
Latin Sin autem noluerit accipere uxorem fratris sui, quæ ei lege debetur, perget mulier ad portam civitatis, et interpellabit majores natu, dicetque : Non vult frater viri mei suscitare nomen fratris sui in Israël, nec me in conjugem sumere.
