¹⁹ Personal injuries to others must be dealt with in keeping with the crime—

^20 (A) a broken bone for a broken bone, an eye for an eye, or a tooth for a tooth.

^19-21 (A) then you will be punished without mercy. You will receive the same punishment the accused would have received if found guilty, whether it means losing an eye, a tooth, a hand, a foot, or even your life.

Israel, the crime of telling lies in court must be punished. And when people hear what happens to witnesses that lie, everyone else who testifies in court will tell the truth.

Revenge

(Luke 6.29,30)

^38 (A) You know you have been taught, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.”
