Exodus 21:16-32
16And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he shall be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death. 17And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.1 18And if men contend together, and one shall smite another with a stone, or with his fist, and he shall not die, but keepeth to his bed:2 19If he shall rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that smote him be clear: only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.3 20And if a man shall smite his male or female servant, with a rod, and he shall die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.4 21However, if he shall continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.
22If men shall contend, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit shall depart from her, and yet no harm follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman’s husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine . 23And if any harm shall follow, then thou shalt give life for life, 24Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe. 26And if a man shall smite the eye of his male servant, or the eye of his female servant, that it shall perish; he shall let him go free for his eye’s sake. 27And if he shall smite out his male servant’s tooth, or his female servant’s tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth’s sake. 28If an ox shall gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be clear. 29But if the ox was accustomed to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not restrained him, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death. 30If there shall be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatever is laid upon him. 31Whether he hath gored a son, or hath gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done to him. 32If the ox shall push a male or female servant; he shall give to their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
