02_EXO_21_01 Now these [are] the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
02_EXO_21_02 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
02_EXO_21_03 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.
02_EXO_21_04 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.
02_EXO_21_05 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:
02_EXO_21_06 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for ever.
02_EXO_21_07 And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.
02_EXO_21_08 If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
02_EXO_21_09 And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
02_EXO_21_10 If he take him another [wife]; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.
02_EXO_21_11 And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.
02_EXO_21_12 He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death.
02_EXO_21_13 And if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver [him] into his hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he shall flee.
02_EXO_21_14 But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.
02_EXO_21_15 And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
02_EXO_21_16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
02_EXO_21_17 And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
02_EXO_21_18 And if men strive together, and one smite another with a stone, or with [his] fist, and he die not, but keepeth [his] bed:
02_EXO_21_19 If he rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that smote [him] be quit: only he shall pay [for] the loss of his time, and shall cause [him] to be thoroughly healed.
02_EXO_21_20 And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.
02_EXO_21_21 Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he [is] his money.
02_EXO_21_22 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart [from her], and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges [determine].
02_EXO_21_23 And if [any] mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
02_EXO_21_24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
02_EXO_21_25 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
02_EXO_21_26 And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it perish; he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.
02_EXO_21_27 And if he smite out his manservant's tooth, or his maidservant's tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.
02_EXO_21_28 If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox [shall be] quit.
02_EXO_21_29 But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
02_EXO_21_30 If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
02_EXO_21_31 Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
02_EXO_21_32 If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
02_EXO_21_33 And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall therein;
02_EXO_21_34 The owner of the pit shall make [it] good, [and] give money unto the owner of them; and the dead [beast] shall be his.
02_EXO_21_35 And if one man's ox hurt another's, that he die; then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of it; and the dead [ox] also they shall divide.
02_EXO_21_36 Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.
