Exodus 21:12-27
12He that smitethH5221 a manH376, so that he dieH4191, shall be surelyH4191 put to deathH4191. 13And if a man shall not lie in waitH6658, but GodH430 shall deliverH579 him into his handH3027; then I will appointH7760 thee a placeH4725 where he shall fleeH5127. 14But if a manH376 shall come presumptuouslyH2102 upon his neighbourH7453, to slayH2026 him with guileH6195; thou shalt takeH3947 him from my altarH4196, that he may dieH4191. 15And he that smitethH5221 his fatherH1, or his motherH517, shall be surelyH4191 put to deathH4191. 16And he that stealethH1589 a manH376, and sellethH4376 him, or if he shall be foundH4672 in his handH3027, he shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191. 17And he that cursethH7043 his fatherH1, or his motherH517, shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191.1 18And if menH582 contendH7378 together, and oneH376 shall smiteH5221 anotherH7453 with a stoneH68, orH176 with his fistH106, and he shall not dieH4191, but keepethH5307 to his bedH4904:2 19If he shall rise againH6965, and walkH1980 abroadH2351 upon his staffH4938, then shall he that smoteH5221 him be clearH5352: only he shall payH5414 for the loss of his timeH7674, and shall cause him to be thoroughlyH7495 healedH7495.3 20And if a manH376 shall smiteH5221 his maleH5650 or female servantH519, with a rodH7626, and he shall dieH4191 under his handH3027; he shall be surelyH5358 punishedH5358.4 21HoweverH389, if he shall continueH5975 a dayH3117 or twoH8147, he shall not be punishedH5358: for he is his moneyH3701.
22If menH582 shall contendH5327, and hurtH5062 a womanH802 with childH2030, so that her fruitH3206 shall departH3318 from her, and yet no harm followH611: he shall be surelyH6064 punishedH6064, according as the woman’sH802 husbandH1167 will layH7896 upon him; and he shall payH5414 as the judgesH6414 determine . 23And if any harm shall followH611, then thou shalt giveH5414 lifeH5315 for lifeH5315, 24EyeH5869 for eyeH5869, toothH8127 for toothH8127, handH3027 for handH3027, footH7272 for footH7272, 25BurningH3555 for burningH3555, woundH6482 for woundH6482, stripeH2250 for stripeH2250. 26And if a manH376 shall smiteH5221 the eyeH5869 of his male servantH5650, or the eyeH5869 of his female servantH519, that it shall perishH7843; he shall let him goH7971 freeH2670 forH8478 his eye’sH5869 sake. 27And if he shall smiteH5307 out his male servant’sH5650 toothH8127, or his female servant’sH519 toothH8127; he shall let him goH7971 freeH2670 for his tooth’sH8127 sake.
