← Exodus 21:27	Exodus 21:28 (KJV)	Exodus 21:29 →
And if he smite out his manservant's tooth, or his maidservant's tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.	If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox [shall be] quit.	But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
