Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

(A defendant) who, being brought (into court) by the creditor, (and) being questioned, denies (the debt), shall be convicted (of his falsehood) by at least three witnesses (who must depose) in the presence of the Brāhmaṇa (appointed by) the king.
