Exodus 21:30-36
30But if the dead person's family demands money, the man can give them money instead of his life. He must pay them what they ask for.
31This law is the same if the bull attacks someone's son or their daughter.
32If it attacks a male slave or a female slave, the man must pay 30 silver coins to the slave's master. You must also throw stones at the bull to kill it.
33If a man digs a hole in the ground, he must cover it. If he leaves a hole open, a cow or a donkey might fall into it.
34Then the man who dug the hole must pay for the loss of the animal. He must pay money to the animal's owner, but he may keep the dead animal for himself.
35If one man's bull attacks another man's bull, it may die. Then they must sell the bull that is still alive. Each man can take half of the money and half of the dead bull as well.
36But perhaps that bull has attacked other animals before. If its owner knows that and he did not do anything, he must pay for the dead bull. He should have kept his bull in a safe place. So he must pay the owner of the dead bull, but he can keep the dead animal for himself.
