   1) Exodus 22 , 23 , 24   
      
   EXODUS 22   
      
   Laws About Restitution   
      
   1 (2Sa 12:6; Lk 19:8) If a man steals an ox or a sheep and kills it   
   or sells it, then he shall repay five oxen for an ox,   
   and four sheep for a sheep.   
   2 (Mt 24:43; Nu 35:27) If a thief is caught breaking in   
    and is struck so that he dies, then there will be no blood guilt for him.   
   3 (Ex 21:2) If the sun has risen on him, then there is blood guilt for him.   
   He must make full restitution. If he has nothing,   
   then he will be sold for his theft.   
   4 (Ex 21:16; 22:1) If the stolen item is in fact found alive   
   in his possession, whether it be an ox, or donkey, or sheep,   
   then he shall repay double.   
   5 If a man causes a field or vineyard to be eaten   
   and puts out his beast so that it feeds in another man's field,   
   he must make restitution of the best of his own field   
   and of the best of his own vineyard.   
   6 (Ex 22:9) If fire breaks out and catches in thorn bushes,   
    so that stacked grain or the standing grain or the field are consumed,   
    then he who started the fire must surely make restitution.   
   7 If a man gives his neighbor money or items to be kept for him,   
   and it is stolen from the man's house, if the thief is caught,   
   he must repay double.   
   8 (Ex 21:6; 22:28) If the thief is not caught, then the owner of the house   
   will be brought before the judges to determine   
   if he has laid his hand on his neighbor's goods.   
   9 (Dt 25:1; Ex 22:4) For any kind of trespass, whether it be for an ox,   
    for a donkey, for a sheep, for clothing, or for any type of lost thing,   
   where another says it is his, the case of both parties shall come   
   before the judges. And whoever the judges find guilty will pay double   
   to his neighbor.   
   10 If a man gives his neighbor a donkey, or an ox, or a sheep,   
   or any beast to keep for him, and it dies, or is injured,   
   or is driven away while no one sees it,   
   11 (Heb 6:16) then there will be an oath before the Lord between   
   both of them that he has not laid his hand upon his neighbor's property.   
   And its owner must accept this, and he will not have to make restitution.   
   12 (Ge 31:39) However, if it was stolen from him, he shall   
   make restitution to its owner.   
   13 If it is torn in pieces, then let him bring it as evidence,   
    and he will not have to repay for that which was torn.   
   14 If a man borrows anything from his neighbor,   
    and it is hurt or dies when the owner was not with it,   
   then he shall surely make restitution.   
   15 But if the owner was with it, he shall not make restitution.   
   If it was a hired thing, it came with his hire.   
      
   Exodus 22   
   [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.   
   [2] If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall   
   no blood be shed for him.   
   [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.   
   [4] If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be 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.   
   [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.   
   [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.   
   [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.   
   [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.   
   [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:   
   [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.   
   [12] And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner   
   thereof.   
   [13] If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he   
   shall not make good that which was torn.   
   [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.   
   [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.   
      
   Moral and Ceremonial Laws

    to him, he must pay money according to the dowry of virgins.

   19 (Lev 18:23; Dt 27:21) Whoever has relations with   
   a beast must surely be put to death.   
   20 (Dt 17:2-5; Nu 25:7-8) He who sacrifices to any god   
    other than the Lord alone shall be utterly destroyed.   
   21 (Dt 10:19; Ex 23:9; Lev 19:33) You must neither wrong a foreigner   
   nor oppress him, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.   
   22 (Dt 24:17; 27:19) You shall not afflict any widow or orphan.   
   23 (Ps 18:6; Lk 18:7) If you afflict them in any way   
   and they cry at all to Me, I will surely hear their cry.   
   24 (Ps 109:9; 69:24) And My anger will burn,   
   and I will kill you with the sword,   
   and your wives will become widows,   
   and your children fatherless.   
   25 (Ps 15:5; Lev 25:35-37; Dt 23:19-20) If you lend money to any   
   of My people who is poor among you, do not be a creditor to him,   
   and do not charge him interest.   
   26 (Dt 24:6; Pr 20:16) If you take your neighbor's garment as a pledge,   
   you shall return it to him before the sun goes down,   
   27 (Ex 34:6; 2Ch 30:9) for that is his only covering;   
    it is his garment for his body. In what else will he sleep?   
   And when he cries out to Me, I will hear, for I am gracious.   
   28 (Ecc 10:20; Ac 23:5) You shall not curse   
   God or curse the ruler of your people.   
   29 (Ex 13:2; 23:16) You must not delay to offer the first   
    of your harvest and of your vats.   
   You must give to Me the firstborn of your sons.   
   30 (Lev 22:27; Dt 15:19) Likewise you must do the same   
   with your oxen and with your sheep. Seven days it shall   
    remain with its mother, but on the eighth day you must give it to Me.
