Exodus 22:2 in Context — Exodus 22

1 Quando alguém furtar boi ou ovelha, e lhe degolar ou vender, por aquele boi pagará cinco bois, e por aquela ovelha quatro ovelhas.

2 Se o ladrão for achado arrombando uma casa, e for ferido e morrer, o que lhe feriu não será culpado de sua morte.

3 Se o sol houver sobre ele saído, o matador será réu de homicídio: o ladrão haverá de restituir completamente; se não tiver, será vendido por seu furto.

4 Se for achado com o furto na mão, seja boi ou asno ou ovelha vivos, pagará o dobro.
