26 Si un homme frappe l’œil de son esclave, homme ou femme, et qu’il lui fasse perdre l’œil, il le mettra en liberté, pour prix de son œil.

27 Et s’il fait tomber une dent à son esclave, homme ou femme, il le mettra en liberté, pour prix de sa dent.

28 Si un bœuf frappe de ses cornes un homme ou une femme, et que la mort en soit la suite, le bœuf sera lapidé, sa chair ne sera point mangée, et le maître du bœuf ne sera point puni.

29 Mais si le bœuf était auparavant sujet à frapper, et qu’on en ait averti le maître, qui ne l’a point surveillé, le bœuf sera lapidé, dans le cas où il tuerait un homme ou une femme, et son maître sera puni de mort.
