Exodus 21:19-26 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

19. --if he rise, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that struck him be guiltless; only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.

20. And if a man strike his bondman or his handmaid with a staff, and he die under his hand, he shall certainly be avenged.

21. Only, if he continue to live a day or two days, he shall not be avenged; for he is his money.

22. And if men strive together, and strike a woman with child, so that she be delivered, and no mischief happen, he shall in any case be fined, according as the woman's husband shall impose on him, and shall give it as the judges estimate.

23. But if mischief happen, then thou shalt give life for life,

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

25. branding for branding, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.

26. And if a man strike the eye of his bondman or the eye of his handmaid, and it be marred, he shall let him go for his eye.
