Exodus 22:5-15

5If a manH376 shall cause a fieldH7704 or vineyardH3754 to be eatenH1197, and shall putH7971 in his beastH1165, and shall feedH1197 in another man’sH312 fieldH7704; of the bestH4315 of his own fieldH7704, and of the bestH4315 of his own vineyardH3754, shall he make restitutionH7999.

6If fireH784 break outH3318, and catchH4672 in thornsH6975, so that the stacks of sheavesH1430, or the standing grainH7054, or the fieldH7704, be consumedH398 therewith; he that kindledH1197 the fireH1200 shall surelyH7999 make restitutionH7999.

7If a manH376 shall deliverH5414 unto his neighbourH7453 moneyH3701 or stuffH3627 to keepH8104, and it be stolenH1589 out of the man’sH376 houseH1004; if the thiefH1590 be foundH4672, let him payH7999 doubleH8147. 8If the thiefH1590 be notH3808 foundH4672, then the masterH1167 of the houseH1004 shall be broughtH7126 unto the judgesH430, to see whether he have putH7971 his handH3027 unto his neighbour’sH7453 goodsH4399. 9For all mannerH1697 of trespassH6588, whether it be for oxH7794, for donkeyH2543, for sheepH7716, for raimentH8008, or for any manner of lost thingH9, which another challengethH559 to be his, the causeH1697 of both partiesH8147 shall comeH935 before the judgesH430; and whom the judgesH430 shall condemnH7561, he shall payH7999 doubleH8147 unto his neighbourH7453. 10If a manH376 deliverH5414 unto his neighbourH7453 a donkeyH2543, or an oxH7794, or a sheepH7716, or any beastH929, to keepH8104; and it dieH4191, or be hurtH7665, or driven awayH7617, no man seeingH7200 it: 11Then shall an oathH7621 of YhwhH3068 be between them bothH8147, that he hath not putH7971 his handH3027 unto his neighbour’sH7453 goodsH4399; and the ownerH1167 of it shall acceptH3947 thereof, and he shall not make it goodH7999. 12And if it be stolenH1589 from him, he shall make restitutionH7999 unto the ownerH1167 thereof. 13If it be torn in piecesH2963, then let him bringH935 it for witnessH5707, and he shall not make goodH7999 that which was tornH2966.

14And if a manH376 borrowH7592 ought of his neighbourH7453, and it be hurtH7665, or dieH4191, the ownerH1167 thereof being not with itH5973, he shall surelyH7999 make it goodH7999. 15But if the ownerH1167 thereof be with it, he shall not make it goodH7999: if it be an hiredH7916 thing, it cameH935 for his hireH7939.
