Bible. Exodus
02:021:014 But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay
him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he
may die.
02:021:015 And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely
put to death.
02:021:016 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found
in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
02:021:017 And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be
put to death.
02:021:018 And if men strive together, and one smite another with a
stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth his bed:
02:021:019 If he rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall
he that smote him be quit: only he shall pay for the loss of
his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.
02:021:020 And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and
he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.
02:021:021 Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be
punished: for he is his money.
02:021:022 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit
depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be
surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay
upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.
02:021:023 And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for
life,
02:021:024 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
02:021:025 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
02:021:026 And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his
maid, that it perish; he shall let him go free for his eye's
sake.
02:021:027 And if he smite out his manservant's tooth, or his
maidservant's tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth's
sake.
02:021:028 If an ox 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 quit.
02:021:029 But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past,
and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept
him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall
be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
02:021:030 If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for
the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
02:021:031 Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter,
according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
02:021:032 If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall
give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox
shall be stoned.
02:021:033 And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit,
and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall therein;
