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 .
