20And if a manH376 strikeH5221 his bondman or his handmaid with a staffH7626, and he dieH4191 under his handH3027, he shall certainly be avengedH5358.

21OnlyH389, if he continue [to live] a dayH3117 or two daysH3117, he shall not be avengedH5358; for he is his moneyH3701.

22And if menH376 strive together, and strikeH5062 a womanH802 with childH3206, so that she beH1961 delivered, and no mischief happen, he shall in any case beH1961 fined, according as the woman's husbandH376 shall impose on him, and shall giveH5414 it as the judges estimate.

23But if mischief happen, then thou shalt giveH5414 lifeH5315 for lifeH5315,

24eyeH5869 for eyeH5869, toothH8127 for toothH8127, handH3027 for handH3027, footH7272 for footH7272,

25branding for branding, woundH6482 for woundH6482, stripe for stripe.

26And if a manH376 strikeH5221 the eyeH5869 of his bondman or the eyeH5869 of his handmaid, and it be marred, he shall let him goH7971 for his eyeH5869.
