Exodus 21:36

22:1

Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.

Or if it be known {H3045} that the ox {H7794} hath used to push {H5056} in time past {H8543}{H8032}, and his owner {H1167} hath not kept {H8104} him in; he shall surely {H7999} pay {H7999} ox {H7794} for ox {H7794}; and the dead {H4191} shall be his own.

But if it is known that the ox was in the habit of goring in the past, and the owner did not confine it; he must pay ox for ox, but the dead animal will be his.

But if it was known that the ox had a habit of goring, yet its owner failed to restrain it, he shall pay full compensation, ox for ox, and the dead animal will be his.

Or if it be known that the ox was wont to gore in time past, and its owner hath not kept it in; he shall surely pay ox for ox, and the dead beast shall be his own.
