23 But if there is harm,1 then you shall pay qlife for life, 24 reye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25 burn for burn, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
An Eye for an Eye
17 “Whoever takes a human life xshall surely be put to death. 18 yWhoever takes an animal’s life shall make it good, life for life. 19 If anyone injures his neighbor, as he has done it shall be done to him, 20 fracture for fracture, zeye for eye, tooth for tooth; whatever injury he has given a person shall be given to him. 21 Whoever kills an animal shall make it good, and whoever kills a person shall be put to death. 22 aYou shall have the same rule for the sojourner and for the native, for I am the Lord your God.” 23 So Moses spoke to the people of Israel, and they brought out of the camp the one who had cursed and stoned him with stones. Thus the people of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.
21 Your eye shall not pity. kIt shall be life for life, leye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
