and if there is mischief, then thou hast given life for life,
`And when a man putteth a blemish in his fellow, as he hath done so it is done to him;
breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he putteth a blemish in a man so it is done in him.
`And ye take no atonement for the life of a murderer who is condemned--to die, for he is certainly put to death;
and thine eye doth not pity--life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
