Exodus 22:1-4

1“When a man steals an ox or a sheep and butchers it or sells it, he must repay five cattle for the ox or four sheep for the sheep.

2If a thief is caught in the act of breaking in, and he is beaten to death, no one is guilty of bloodshed.

3But if this happens after sunrise, the householder is guilty of bloodshed. A thief must make full restitution. If he is unable, he is to be sold because of his theft.

4If what was stolen — whether ox, donkey, or sheep — is actually found alive in his possession, he must repay double.
