16Any man who gets another into his power in order to get a price for him is to be put to death, if you take him in the act.
17Any man cursing his father or his mother is to be put to death.
18If, in a fight, one man gives another a blow with a stone, or with the shut hand, not causing his death, but making him keep in bed;
19If he is able to get up again and go about with a stick, the other will be let off; only he will have to give him payment for the loss of his time, and see that he is cared for till he is well.
20If a man gives his man-servant or his woman-servant blows with a rod, causing death, he is certainly to undergo punishment.
21But, at the same time, if the servant goes on living for a day or two, the master is not to get punishment, for the servant is his property.
22If men, while fighting, do damage to a woman with child, causing the loss of the child, but no other evil comes to her, the man will have to make payment up to the amount fixed by her husband, in agreement with the decision of the judges.
