    1If a thief is caught breaking in and is struck and killed, there is no bloodguilt for his death.

    2If the sun has risen on him, there is bloodguilt for his death. He must pay restitution; and if he owns nothing, he shall be sold for his theft.

    3If what was stolen is found alive in his possession, whether it is an ox, a donkey, or a sheep, he must pay back double.

    4If a man lets his animal graze in another's field or vineyard, and it feeds there, he must repay with the best of his own field or vineyard.

    5If a fire breaks out and catches on thorn bushes so that a stack of grain, standing grain, or a field is destroyed, the one who started the fire must make full compensation.

    6If a man gives silver or goods to his neighbor for safekeeping, and they are stolen from the neighbor's house, if the thief is caught, he must pay back double.

    7If the thief is not found, the owner of the house must present himself before God to determine whether he has taken his neighbor’s property.

    8In all cases of dishonest dealings, whether involving an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or anything lost that someone claims to be theirs, both parties must present their cases before God. The one whom God condemns must pay back double to the other.

    9If a man gives his neighbor a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any other animal to take care of, and it dies, is injured, or is driven away while no one is watching,

    10the issue between them will be settled by an oath before the Lord that the neighbor has not taken the other’s property. The owner must accept this, and no restitution is required.

    11But if the animal was stolen from the neighbor, restitution must be made to the owner.

    12If it was attacked and torn apart by a wild animal, the neighbor must provide evidence of this, but does not need to pay restitution for the torn animal.

    13If a man borrows an animal from his neighbor and it is injured or dies when its owner is not present, he must make restitution.

    14If the owner is with the animal, the borrower does not need to pay. If it was rented, the payment covers the loss.

    36However, if it was known that the ox was prone to goring in the past and its owner did not keep it confined, he must pay compensation—an ox for an ox—and the dead animal will be his.
