22:1 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.
22:2 If a thief shall be found breaking through, and be smitten that he die, [there shall] no blood [be shed] for him.
22:3 If the sun shall have risen upon him, [there shall be] blood [shed] for him; [for] he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
22:4 If the theft shall be certainly found in his hand alive, whether an ox, or donkey, or sheep; he shall restore double.
22:5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another mans field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
22:6 If fire shall break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of grain, or the standing grain, or the field, shall be consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
22:7 If a man shall deliver to his neighbour money or goods to keep, and it be stolen out of the mans house; if the thief shall be found, let him pay double.
22:8 If the thief shall not be found, then the master of the house shall be brought to the judges, [to see] whether he hath put his hand to his neighbours goods.
22:9 For all manner of trespass, [whether it be] for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for raiment, [or] for any manner of lost thing, which [another] challengeth to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; [and] he whom the judges shall condemn, shall pay double to his neighbour.
22:10 If a man shall deliver to his neighbour a donkey, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it shall die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing [it]:
22:11 [Then] shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand to his neighbours goods; and the owner of it shall accept [of it], and he shall not make restitution.
22:12 And if it shall be stolen from him, he shall make restitution to the owner of it.
22:13 If it shall be torn in pieces, [then] let him bring it [for] witness, [and] he shall not make good that which was torn.
22:14 And if a man shall borrow [any thing] from his neighbour, and it shall be hurt, or die, the owner of it [being] not with it, he shall surely make [it] good.
22:15 [But] if the owner of it shall [be] with it, he shall not make [it] good: if it [be] an hired [thing], it came for his hire.
22:16 And if a man shall entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
22:17 If her father shall utterly refuse to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
22:18 Thou shalt not allow a witch to live.
22:19 Whoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
22:20 He that sacrificeth to [any] god, except to the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
22:21 Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22:22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
22:23 If thou shalt afflict them in any way, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry;
22:24 And my wrath shall burn, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
22:25 If thou shalt lend money to [any of] my people [that is] poor among you, thou shalt not be to him as a moneylender, neither shalt thou charge him interest.
22:26 If thou shalt at all take thy neighbours raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it to him by the setting of the sun.
22:27 For that [is] his only covering, it [is] his raiment for his skin: what shall he sleep in? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth to me, that I will hear; for I [am] gracious.
22:28 Thou shalt not revile the judges, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
22:29 Thou shalt not delay [to offer] the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give to me.
22:30 Likewise shalt thou do with thy oxen, [and] with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it to me.
22:31 And ye shall be holy men to me: neither shall ye eat [any] flesh [that is] torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
