11. “And if he does not do these three for her, then she shall go out for naught, without silver.

12. “He who strikes a man so that he dies shall certainly be put to death.

13. “But if he did not lie in wait, but Elohim delivered him into his hand, then I shall appoint for you a place where he is to flee.

14. “But when a man acts presumptuously against his neighbour, to kill him by treachery, you are to take him even from My altar to die.

18. “And when men strive together, and one smites the other with a stone or with his fist, and he does not die but is confined to his bed,

19. if he rises again and walks about outside with his staff, then he who smote him shall be innocent. He only pays for lost time and sees to it that he is completely healed.

20. “And when a man smites his male or female servant with a rod, so that he dies under his hand, he shall certainly be punished.

21. “But if he remains alive a day or two, he is not punished; for he is his property.
