New American Standard Bible 1995
Exodus 22:4-9
4If what he stole is actually found alive in his 1possession, whether an ox or a donkey or a sheep, 2he shall pay double.
5“If a man lets a field or vineyard be grazed bare and lets his animal loose so that it grazes in another man’s field, he shall make restitution from the best of his own field and the best of his own vineyard.
6“If a fire breaks out and spreads to thorn bushes, so that stacked grain or the standing grain or the field itself is consumed, he who started the fire shall surely make restitution.
7“3If a man gives his neighbor money or goods to keep for him and it is stolen from the man’s house, if the thief is 4caught, he shall pay double. 8If the thief is not 5caught, then the owner of the house shall 6appear before 78the judges, to determine whether he 9laid his hands on his neighbor’s property. 9For every 10breach of trust, whether it is for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for clothing, or for any lost thing about which one says, ‘This is it,’ the 11case of both parties shall come before 1213the judges; he whom 14the judges condemn shall pay double to his neighbor.
