Lexham English Bible LEB

12 " '{Whoever strikes someone} and he dies will surely be put to death.

13 But if he did not lie in wait {and it was an accident}, I will appoint for you a place to which he may flee.

14 But if a man schemes against his neighbor to kill him by treachery, you will take him from my altar to die.

15 And {whoever strikes} his father or his mother will surely be put to death.

16 " 'And {whoever kidnaps someone} and sells him, or he is found in his possession, he will surely be put to death.

17 " 'And one who curses his father or his mother will surely be put to death.

18 " 'And if men quarrel and a man strikes his neighbor with a stone or with a fist and he does not die, but {he is confined to bed},

19 if he stands and walks about in the outside on his staff, the striker will be unpunished; he will only pay for his inactivity {toward his full recovery}."

20 And if a man strikes his male slave or his female slave with the rod and he dies under his hand, he will surely be avenged.

21 Yet if he survives a day or two days, he will not be avenged, because he is his money.

22 " 'And if men fight and they injure a pregnant woman, and her children go out and there is not serious injury, he will surely be fined as the woman's husband demands concerning him {and as the judges determine}.

23 And if there is serious injury, you will give life in place of life,

24 eye in place of eye, tooth in place of tooth, hand in place of hand, foot in place of foot,

25 burn in place of burn, wound in place of wound, bruise in place of bruise.

26 " 'And if a man strikes the eye of his male slave or the eye of his female slave and destroys it, he shall release him as free in place of his eye.

27 And if he causes the tooth of his male slave or the tooth of his female slave to fall out, he will release him as free in place of his tooth.

28 " 'And if an ox gores a man or a woman and he dies, the ox will surely be stoned, and its meat will not be eaten, and the owner of the ox [is] innocent.

29 But if it was a goring ox {before} and its owner was warned and did not restrain it and it kills a man or a woman, the ox will be stoned, and the owner also will be put to death.

30 If a ransom is set on him, he will pay the redemption money for his life according to all that is set on him.

31 If it gores a son or it gores a daughter, according to this regulation it shall be done to him.

32 If the ox gores a male slave or a female slave, he will give thirty shekels of silver to his master, and the ox will be stoned.

33 " 'If a man opens a pit or if a man digs a pit and he does not cover it and an ox or a donkey falls into it,

34 the owner of the pit will pay restitution; he will pay silver to its owner, but the dead [animal] will be for him.

35 And if a man's ox injures the ox of his neighbor and it dies, they will sell the living ox and divide the {money}, and they will also divide the dead [one].

36 Or if it was known that it was a goring ox {before} and its owner did not restrain it, he will surely make restitution, an ox in place of the ox, and the dead [one] will be for him.

New International Version NIV

12 “Anyone who strikes a person with a fatal blow is to be put to death.

14 But if anyone schemes and kills someone deliberately, that person is to be taken from my altar and put to death.

16 “Anyone who kidnaps someone is to be put to death, whether the victim has been sold or is still in the kidnapper’s possession.

17 “Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.

18 “If people quarrel and one person hits another with a stone or with their fist and the victim does not die but is confined to bed,

19 the one who struck the blow will not be held liable if the other can get up and walk around outside with a staff; however, the guilty party must pay the injured person for any loss of time and see that the victim is completely healed.

20 “Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result,

21 but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property.

22 “If people are fighting and hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined whatever the woman’s husband demands and the court allows.

23 But if there is serious injury, you are to take life for life,

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

25 burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.

28 “If a bull gores a man or woman to death, the bull is to be stoned to death, and its meat must not be eaten. But the owner of the bull will not be held responsible.

29 If, however, the bull has had the habit of goring and the owner has been warned but has not kept it penned up and it kills a man or woman, the bull is to be stoned and its owner also is to be put to death.

30 However, if payment is demanded, the owner may redeem his life by the payment of whatever is demanded.

31 This law also applies if the bull gores a son or daughter.

32 If the bull gores a male or female slave, the owner must pay thirty shekels of silver to the master of the slave, and the bull is to be stoned to death.

33 “If anyone uncovers a pit or digs one and fails to cover it and an ox or a donkey falls into it,

34 the one who opened the pit must pay the owner for the loss and take the dead animal in exchange.

35 “If anyone’s bull injures someone else’s bull and it dies, the two parties are to sell the live one and divide both the money and the dead animal equally.

36 However, if it was known that the bull had the habit of goring, yet the owner did not keep it penned up, the owner must pay, animal for animal, and take the dead animal in exchange.
