Deuteronomy 21:17
Badala yake, anapaswa kumtambua mwana wa kwanza, mwana wa mke asiyempenda, kwa kumpatia mara mbili ya mali zake; kwa maana huyo mwana ni mwanzo wa nguvu zake; haki za mzawa wa kwanza ni zake.

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.
Instead, he must acknowledge the firstborn, the son of his unloved wife, by giving him a double portion of all that he has. For that son is the firstfruits of his father’s strength; the right of the firstborn belongs to him.
but he shall acknowledge the firstborn, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he has; for he is the beginning of his strength. The right of the firstborn is his.

In context
14 Lakini usipofurahishwa naye, basi unatakiwa kumruhusu aondoke apendaye yeye. Lakini haupaswi kamwe kumuuza kwa fedha, pia haupaswi kumfanya kama mtumwa, kwa sababu umemdhalilisha.
15 Iwapo mwanamume ana wake wawili na mmoja wao ampenda na mwingine kumchukia, na wote wamekwisha mzalia watoto –wote mwanamke mpendwa na mwanamke achukiwae –
16 basi katika siku ambayo mwanamume atakapowarithisha mali zake wanawe, hapaswi kumfanya mwana wa mke ampendaye kuwa mzawa wa kwanza kabla ya mwana wa mke amchukiaye, ambaye ndiye mwana wa kwanza.
17 Badala yake, anapaswa kumtambua mwana wa kwanza, mwana wa mke asiyempenda, kwa kumpatia mara mbili ya mali zake; kwa maana huyo mwana ni mwanzo wa nguvu zake; haki za mzawa wa kwanza ni zake.
18 Iwapo mwanamume ana mwana mkaidi na muasi ambaye hatatii sauti ya baba yake au sauti ya mama yake, ambaye, hata baada ya kurekebishwa, hatawasikia;
19 basi baba yake na mama yake wanapaswa kumshika na kumleta mbele ya wazee wa mji na kwenye malango ya mji.
20 Wanapaswa kuwaambia wazee wa mji, “Huyu mwanetu ni mkaidi na muasi; hataki kusikia sauti zetu; ni mwasherati na pia ni mlevi’.
