¹ If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.

² If a thief shall be found breaking through, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.

³ If the sun shall have risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him: for he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.

⁴ If the theft shall be certainly found in his hand alive, whether an ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.

⁵ If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man's field: of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard shall he make restitution.

⁶ If fire shall break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field shall be consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.

⁷ If a man shall deliver to his neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief shall be found, let him pay double.

⁸ If the thief shall not be found, then the master of the house shall be brought to the judges, to see whether he hath put his hand to his neighbor's goods.

⁹ For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing which another challengeth to be his: the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; and he whom the judges shall condemn, shall pay double to his neighbor.

¹⁰ If a man shall deliver to his neighbor an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast to keep; and it shall die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:

¹¹ Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand to his neighbor's goods; and the owner of it shall accept of it, and he shall not make restitution.

¹² And if it shall be stolen from him, he shall make restitution to the owner of it.

¹³ If it shall be torn in pieces; then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.

¹⁴ And if a man shall borrow aught of his neighbor, and it shall be hurt, or die, the owner of it being not with it, he shall surely make it good.

¹⁵ But if the owner of it shall be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be a hired thing, it came for his hire.

¹⁶ And if a man shall entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.

¹⁷ If her father shall utterly refuse to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dower of virgins.

¹⁸ Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

¹⁹ Whoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.

²⁰ He that sacrificeth to any god, save to the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.

²¹ Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

²² Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.

²³ If thou shalt afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry:

²⁴ And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.

²⁵ If thou shalt lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as a usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.

²⁶ If thou shalt at all take thy neighbor's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it to him by the setting of the sun.

²⁷ For that is his only covering, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth to me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.

²⁸ Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.

²⁹ Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the first-born of thy sons shalt thou give to me.

³⁰ Likewise shalt thou do with thy oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it to me.

³¹ And ye shall be holy men to me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.

¹ "Now these are the ordinances which you shall set before them.

² "If you buy a Hebrew servant, he shall serve six years and in the seventh he shall go out free without paying anything.

³ If he comes in by himself, he shall go out by himself. If he is married, then his wife shall go out with him.

⁴ If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.

⁵ But if the servant shall plainly say, 'I love my master, my wife, and my children. I will not go out free;'

⁶ then his master shall bring him to God, and shall bring him to the door or to the doorpost, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him for ever.

⁷ "If a man sells his daughter to be a female servant, she shall not go out as the male servants do.

⁸ If she doesn't please her master, who has married her to himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.

⁹ If he marries her to his son, he shall deal with her as a daughter.

¹⁰ If he takes another wife to himself, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, and her marital rights.

¹¹ If he doesn't do these three things for her, she may go free without paying any money.

¹² "One who strikes a man so that he dies shall surely be put to death,

¹³ but not if it is unintentional, but God allows it to happen: then I will appoint you a place where he shall flee.

¹⁴ If a man schemes and comes presumptuously on his neighbor to kill him, you shall take him from my altar, that he may die.

¹⁵ "Anyone who attacks his father or his mother shall be surely put to death.

¹⁶ "Anyone who kidnaps someone and sells him, or if he is found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.

¹⁷ "Anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.

¹⁸ "If men quarrel and one strikes the other with a stone, or with his fist, and he doesn't die, but is confined to bed;

¹⁹ if he rises again and walks around with his staff, then he who struck him shall be cleared: only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall provide for his healing until he is thoroughly healed.

²⁰ "If a man strikes his servant or his maid with a rod, and he dies under his hand, he shall surely be punished.

²¹ Notwithstanding, if he gets up after a day or two, he shall not be punished, for he is his property.

²² "If men fight and hurt a pregnant woman so that she gives birth prematurely, and yet no harm follows, he shall be surely fined as much as the woman's husband demands and the judges allow.

²³ But if any harm follows, then you must take life for life,

²⁴ eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,

²⁵ burning for burning, wound for wound, and bruise for bruise.

²⁶ "If a man strikes his servant's eye, or his maid's eye, and destroys it, he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.

²⁷ If he strikes out his male servant's tooth, or his female servant's tooth, he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.

²⁸ "If a bull gores a man or a woman to death, the bull shall surely be stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the bull shall not be held responsible.

²⁹ But if the bull had a habit of goring in the past, and it has been testified to its owner, and he has not kept it in, but it has killed a man or a woman, the bull shall be stoned, and its owner shall also be put to death.

³⁰ If a ransom is laid on him, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatever is laid on him.

³¹ Whether it has gored a son or has gored a daughter, according to this judgment it shall be done to him.

³² If the bull gores a male servant or a female servant, thirty shekels of silver shall be given to their master, and the ox shall be stoned.

³³ "If a man opens a pit, or if a man digs a pit and doesn't cover it, and a bull or a donkey falls into it,

³⁴ the owner of the pit shall make it good. He shall give money to its owner, and the dead animal shall be his.

³⁵ "If one man's bull injures another's, so that it dies, then they shall sell the live bull, and divide its price; and they shall also divide the dead animal.

³⁶ Or if it is known that the bull was in the habit of goring in the past, and its owner has not kept it in, he shall surely pay bull for bull, and the dead animal shall be his own.
