Exodus 21:17 in Context — Exodus 21

15 E o que ferir a seu pai ou a sua mãe, morrerá.

16 Também o que roubar uma pessoa, e a vender, ou se achar em suas mãos, morrerá.

17 Igualmente o que amaldiçoar a seu pai ou a sua mãe, morrerá.

18 Ademais, se alguns brigarem, e algum ferir a seu próximo com pedra ou com o punho, e não morrer, mas cair em cama;

19 Se se levantar e andar fora sobre seu cajado, então será o que lhe feriu absolvido: somente lhe pagará o tempo que esteve parado, e fará que lhe curem.
