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.

022:002
If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.

022:003

022:004
If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.

022:005

022:009

022:010
If a man deliver unto his neighbor an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:

022:011
Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbor's goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.

022:012
And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.

022:013
If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.

022:014
And if a man borrow ought of his neighbor, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.

022:015
But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.

022:016
And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.

Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

022:022
Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.

022:023
If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;

022:024
And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.

022:025
If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.

022:026
If thou at all take thy neighbor's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:

022:027
For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.

022:028
Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.

022:029
Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.

022:030
Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.

022:031
And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
