Laws Concerning Personal Injury

Exodus 21:22-27

If men quarrel, and one strike a woman with child and she miscarry indeed, but live herself: he shall be answerable for so much damage as the woman's husband shall require, and as arbiters shall award.

But if her death ensue thereupon, he shall render life for life,

Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,

Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.

If any man strike the eye of his manservant or maidservant, and leave them but one eye, he shall let them go free for the eye which he put out.

Also if he strike out a tooth of his manservant or maidservant, he shall in like manner make them free.
