Exodus 21:19-24
19If the injured man can get up again and walk around outside with a cane, the one who hit him must not be punished. He must pay the injured man for the loss of his time and for all his medical expenses.
20“Whenever an owner hits his male or female slave with a stick so that the slave dies from the beating, the owner must be punished.
21But if the slave gets up in a day or two, the owner must not be punished. The slave is his property.
22“This is what you must do whenever men fight and injure a pregnant woman so that she gives birth prematurely. If there are no other injuries, the offender must pay whatever fine the court allows the woman’s husband to demand.
23If anyone is injured, the offender must pay a life for a life,
24an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot,
