19. Whoever will have inflicted a blemish on any of his citizens, just as he has done, so shall it be done to him:
20. fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he repay. Whatever degree of blemish he has inflicted, so shall he be compelled to suffer.
21. Whoever strikes down a beast, shall repay another. Whoever strikes a man shall be punished.
22. Let there be equal judgment among you, whether it is a sojourner or a citizen who will have sinned. For I am the Lord your God.
23. And Moses spoke to the sons of Israel. And they led away him who had blasphemed, beyond the camp, and they overwhelmed him with stones. And the sons of Israel did just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
