23. And if any ason (harm, fatality) follow, then thou shalt take nefesh for nefesh,

24. Ayin for ayin, shen for shen, yad for yad, regel for regel,

25. Burn for burn, wound for wound, chaburah (stripe laceration) for chaburah.

26. And if an ish strike the ayin of his eved, or the ayin of his amah, that it perish; he shall let him go free for his ayin's sake.

27. And if he strike his eved's shen (tooth), or his amah's shen; he shall let him go free for his shen's sake.

28. If an ox gore an ish or an isha, that they die; then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his basar shall not be eaten; but the ba'al hashor (owner of the ox) shall be exempt from punishment.

29. But if the shor habitually from mitmol (yesterday) gored, and its ba'al has been warned, and he hath not kept it in the bull pen, and it hath killed an ish or an isha; the shor shall be stoned, and his ba'al also shall be put to death.

30. If there be laid on him a kofer (atonement payment, ransom), then he shall give for the redemption of his nefesh whatsoever is assessed upon him.
