Exodus 22

KING JAMES BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.	1 If any man steal an ox or a sheep, and kill or sell it: he shall restore five oxen for one ox, and four sheep for one sheep.
2 If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.	2 If a thief be found breaking open a house or undermining it, and be wounded so as to die: he that slew him shall not be guilty of blood.
3 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him; for he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.	3 But if he did this when the sun is risen, he hath committed murder, and he shall die. If he have not wherewith to make restitution for the theft, he shall be sold.
4 If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.	4 If that which he stole be found with him, alive, either ox, or ass, or sheep: he shall restore double.
5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.	5 If any man hurt a field or a vineyard, and put in his beast to feed upon that which is other men's: he shall restore the best of whatsoever he hath in his own field, or in his vineyard, according to the estimation of the damage.
6 If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.	6 If a fire breaking out light upon thorns, and catch stacks of corn, or corn standing in the fields, he that kindled the fire shall make good the loss.
7 If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.	7 If a man deliver money, or any vessel unto his friend to keep, and they be stolen away from him that received them: if the thief be found he shall restore double:
8 If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges, to see whether he have put his hand unto his neighbour's goods.	8 If the thief be not known, the master of the house shall be brought to the gods, and shall swear that he did not lay his hand upon his neighbour's goods,
9 For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, which another challengeth to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.	9 To do any fraud, either in ox, or in ass, or sheep, or raiment, or any thing that may bring damage: the cause of both parties shall come to the gods: and if they give judgment, he shall restore double to his neighbour.
10 If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:	10 If a man deliver ass, ox, sheep, or any beast, to his neighbour's custody, and it die, or be hurt, or be taken by enemies, and no man saw it:
11 Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.	11 There shall be an oath between them, that he did not put forth his hand to his neighbour's goods: and the owner shall accept of the oath; and he shall not be compelled to make restitution.
12 And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.	12 But if it were taken away by stealth, he shall make the loss good to the owner.
13 If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.	13 If it were eaten by a beast, let him bring to him that which was slain, and he shall not make restitution.
14 And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.	14 If a man borrow of his neighbour any of these things, and it be hurt or die, the owner not being present, he shall be obliged to make restitution.
15 But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.	15 But if the owner be present, he shall not make restitution, especially if it were hired and came for the hire of his work.
16 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.	16 If a man seduce a virgin not yet espoused, and lie with her: he shall endow her, and have her to wife.
17 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.	17 If the maid's father will not give her to him, he shall give money according to the dowry, which virgins are wont to receive.
18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.	18 Wizards thou shalt not suffer to live.
19 Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.	19 Whosoever copulateth with a beast shall be put to death.
20 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.	20 He that sacrificeth to gods, shall be put to death, save only to the Lord.
21 Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.	21 Thou shalt not molest a stranger, nor afflict him: for yourselves also were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.	22 You shall not hurt a widow or an orphan.
23 If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;	23 If you hurt them they will cry out to me, and I will hear their cry:
24 And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.	24 And my rage shall be enkindled, and I will strike you with the sword, and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25 If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.	25 If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor, that dwelleth with thee, thou shalt not be hard upon them as an extortioner, nor oppress them with usuries.
26 If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:	26 If thou take of thy neighbour a garment in pledge, thou shalt give it him again before sunset.
27 For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.	27 For that same is the only thing wherewith he is covered, the clothing of his body, neither hath he any other to sleep in: if he cry to me, I will hear him, because I am compassionate.
28 Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.	28 Thou shalt not speak ill of the gods, and the prince of thy people thou shalt not curse.
29 Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.	29 Thou shalt not delay to pay thy tithes and thy firstfruits: thou shalt give the firstborn of thy sons to me.
30 Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.	30 Thou shalt do the same with the firstborn of thy oxen also and sheep: seven days let it be with its dam, the eighth day thou shalt give it to me.
31 And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.	31 You shall be holy men to me: the flesh that beasts have tasted of before, you shall not eat, but shall cast it to the dogs.
