When an ox gores a man or a woman to death ,
the ox shall be stoned ,
and its flesh shall not be eaten ;
but the owner of the ox shall be clear .
*
But if the ox has been accustomed to gore in the past ,
and its owner has been warned but has not kept it in ,
and it kills a man or a woman ,
the ox shall be stoned ,
and its owner also shall be put to death .
*
If a ransom is laid on him ,
then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatever is laid upon him .
*
If it gores a man '
s son or daughter ,
he shall be dealt with according to this same rule .
*
If the ox gores a slave ,
male or female ,
the owner shall give to their master thirty shekels of silver ,
and the ox shall be stoned .
* "
When a man leaves a pit open ,
or when a man digs a pit and does not cover it ,
and an ox or an ass falls into it ,
*
the owner of the pit shall make it good ;
he shall give money to its owner ,
and the dead beast shall be his .
* "
When one man '
s ox hurts another '
s ,
so that it dies ,
then they shall sell the live ox and divide the price of it ;
and the dead beast also they shall divide .

Or if it is known that the ox has been accustomed to gore in the past ,
and its owner has not kept it in ,
he shall pay ox for ox ,
and the dead beast shall be his .
