Chapter 21

KJV - Deuteronomy 21:17

But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.

But he will accept the child people didn't like as the firstborn, by giving him twice as much of everything he has: because he is the start of his strength; the rights of the firstborn belong to him.
