Exodus 21:23

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

But if her death ensue thereupon, he shall render life for life.

See the chapter Copy

Thou shalt not pity him: but shalt require life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.

You shall not take money of him that is guilty of blood: but he shall die forthwith.

He that giveth a blemish to any of his neighbours: as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:

Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he restore. What blemish he gave, the like shall he be compelled to suffer.
