20. And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall surely be punished.
21. Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.
22. And if men strive together, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart, and yet no harm follow; he shall be surely fined, according as the woman’s husband shall lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.
23. But if any harm follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
24. eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
25. burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
26. And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, and destroy it; he shall let him go free for his eye’s sake.
27. And if he smite out his man-servant’s tooth, or his maid-servant’s tooth, he shall let him go free for his tooth’s sake.
28. And if an ox gore a man or a woman to death, the ox shall be surely stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
29. But if the ox was wont to gore in time past, and it hath been testified to its owner, and he hath not kept it in, but it hath killed a man or a woman, the ox shall be stoned, and its owner also shall be put to death.
30. If there be laid on him a ransom, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
