and be smitten that he die ,
there shall no blood be shed for him .

or ass ,
or sheep ;
he shall restore double .

and whom the judges shall condemn ,
he shall pay double unto his neighbour .

If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass ,
or an ox ,
or a sheep ,
or any beast ,

and he shall not make it good .

if it be an hired thing ,
it came for his hire .

Thou shalt neither vex a stranger ,
nor oppress him :
for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt .
*
Ye shall not afflict any widow ,
or fatherless child .
*
If thou afflict them in any wise ,
and they cry at all unto me ,
I will surely hear their cry tsa #

And my wrath shall wax hot ,
and I will kill you with the sword ;
and your wives shall be widows ,
and your children fatherless .
*
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 .
*
If thou at all take #
thy neighbours raiment to pledge ,
thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down :

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 .
*
Thou shalt not revile the gods ,
nor curse the ruler of thy people .

and with thy sheep tso #

neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field ;
ye shall cast it to the dogs .
