Exodus 21:18-20

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁸ ‘When men quarrel and one strikes the other with a stone or his fist, and the injured man does not die but is confined to bed, ¹⁹ if he can later get up and walk around outside leaning on his staff, then the one who struck him will be exempt from punishment. Nevertheless, he must pay for his lost work time^[a] and provide for his complete recovery.

²⁰ ‘When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod, and the slave dies under his abuse,^[b] the owner must be punished.^[c]
