Exodus 22

Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB

1 If a man shall steal an ox or a sheep and kill it or sell it he shall restore five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.

2 If a thief is found breaking into a house and is smitten so he dies, <em>he that killed him</em> shall not be guilty of his blood.

3 If the sun is risen upon him, <em>he that killed him</em> is guilty of his blood; <em>the thief</em> should make full restitution; if he has nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.

4 If he is found with the theft in his hand, whether it be ox or ass or sheep, he shall restore double.

5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten and shall put in his beast and shall feed in another man’s field; of the best of his own field and of the best of his own vineyard shall he make restitution.

6 When fires are lit and in burning the thorns burn also the stacks of sheaves or the standing grain, or the field is consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.

7 When a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it is stolen out of the man’s house; if the thief is found, let him pay double.

8 If the thief is not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges <em>to see</em> whether he has put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods.

9 For all manner of fraud, <em>whether it be</em> for <em>an</em> ox, for <em>an</em> ass, for <em>a</em> sheep, for raiment, <em>or</em> for any manner of lost thing, which <em>another</em> challenges to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; <em>and</em> whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.

10 If a man delivers unto his neighbour an ass or an ox or a sheep or any beast to keep, and it dies or is hurt or driven away, no man seeing <em>it</em>,

11 <em>then</em> shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he has not put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods, and the owner of it shall accept <em>thereof</em>, and he shall not make <em>it</em> good.

12 And if it is stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto its owner.

13 If it is torn in pieces, <em>then</em> let him bring witness, <em>and</em> he shall not make good that which was torn.

14 And if anyone borrows <em>anything</em> of his neighbour, and it is hurt or dies, its owner not <em>being</em> with it, he shall surely make <em>it</em> good.

15 <em>But</em> if its owner <em>is</em> with it, he shall not make <em>it</em> good; if it <em>was</em> hired, it came for its hire.

16 If a man should entice a virgin that is not betrothed and lie with her, he shall surely endow her and <em>take her</em> to be his wife.

17 If her father utterly refuses to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.

18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

19 Whoever lies with a beast shall surely be put to death.

20 He that sacrifices unto <em>any</em> god, except unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.

21 Thou shalt neither mistreat a stranger nor oppress him; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

22 Ye shall not afflict any widow or fatherless child.

23 If thou afflict them in any manner, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;

24 and my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.

25 If thou should lend money to my people, to the poor <em>who is</em> with thee, thou shalt not be to him as a usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.

26 If thou at all take thy neighbour’s clothing as a pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him before the sun goes down;

27 for only that <em>is</em> his covering, it <em>is</em> his clothing to <em>cover</em> his flesh, in which he must sleep; and it shall come to pass, when he cries unto me, that I will hear, for I <em>am</em> merciful.

28 Thou shalt not revile the judges nor curse the prince of thy people.

29 Thou shalt not delay <em>to offer</em> the first of thy ripe fruits and of thy liquors; the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.

30 Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen <em>and</em> with thy sheep; seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it <em>to</em> me.

31 And ye shall be holy men unto me; neither shall ye eat <em>any</em> flesh <em>that is</em> torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.

New International Version NIV

1 “Whoever steals an ox or a sheep and slaughters it or sells it must pay back five head of cattle for the ox and four sheep for the sheep.

2 “If a thief is caught breaking in at night and is struck a fatal blow, the defender is not guilty of bloodshed;

3 but if it happens after sunrise, the defender is guilty of bloodshed. “Anyone who steals must certainly make restitution, but if they have nothing, they must be sold to pay for their theft.

4 If the stolen animal is found alive in their possession—whether ox or donkey or sheep—they must pay back double.

5 “If anyone grazes their livestock in a field or vineyard and lets them stray and they graze in someone else’s field, the offender must make restitution from the best of their own field or vineyard.

6 “If a fire breaks out and spreads into thornbushes so that it burns shocks of grain or standing grain or the whole field, the one who started the fire must make restitution.

7 “If anyone gives a neighbor silver or goods for safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor’s house, the thief, if caught, must pay back double.

8 But if the thief is not found, the owner of the house must appear before the judges, and they must determine whether the owner of the house has laid hands on the other person’s property.

9 In all cases of illegal possession of an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or any other lost property about which somebody says, ‘This is mine,’ both parties are to bring their cases before the judges. The one whom the judges declare guilty must pay back double to the other.

10 “If anyone gives a donkey, an ox, a sheep or any other animal to their neighbor for safekeeping and it dies or is injured or is taken away while no one is looking,

11 the issue between them will be settled by the taking of an oath before the LORD that the neighbor did not lay hands on the other person’s property. The owner is to accept this, and no restitution is required.

12 But if the animal was stolen from the neighbor, restitution must be made to the owner.

13 If it was torn to pieces by a wild animal, the neighbor shall bring in the remains as evidence and shall not be required to pay for the torn animal.

14 “If anyone borrows an animal from their neighbor and it is injured or dies while the owner is not present, they must make restitution.

15 But if the owner is with the animal, the borrower will not have to pay. If the animal was hired, the money paid for the hire covers the loss.

16 “If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged to be married and sleeps with her, he must pay the bride-price, and she shall be his wife.

17 If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, he must still pay the bride-price for virgins.

18 “Do not allow a sorceress to live.

19 “Anyone who has sexual relations with an animal is to be put to death.

20 “Whoever sacrifices to any god other than the LORD must be destroyed.

21 “Do not mistreat or oppress a foreigner, for you were foreigners in Egypt.

22 “Do not take advantage of the widow or the fatherless.

23 If you do and they cry out to me, I will certainly hear their cry.

24 My anger will be aroused, and I will kill you with the sword; your wives will become widows and your children fatherless.

25 “If you lend money to one of my people among you who is needy, do not treat it like a business deal; charge no interest.

26 If you take your neighbor’s cloak as a pledge, return it by sunset,

27 because that cloak is the only covering your neighbor has. What else can they sleep in? When they cry out to me, I will hear, for I am compassionate.

28 “Do not blaspheme God or curse the ruler of your people.

29 “Do not hold back offerings from your granaries or your vats.“You must give me the firstborn of your sons.

30 Do the same with your cattle and your sheep. Let them stay with their mothers for seven days, but give them to me on the eighth day.

31 “You are to be my holy people. So do not eat the meat of an animal torn by wild beasts; throw it to the dogs.
