13 However, aif he did not lie in wait, but God bdelivered him into his hand, then cI will appoint for you a place where he may flee.
14 “But if a man acts with apremeditation against his neighbor, to kill him by treachery, byou shall take him from My altar, that he may die.
15 “And he who strikes his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.
16 a“He who kidnaps a man and bsells him, or if he is cfound in his hand, shall surely be put to death.
17 “And ahe who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.
18 “If men contend with each other, and one strikes the other with a stone or with his fist, and he does not die but is confined to his bed,
19 if he rises again and walks about outside awith his staff, then he who struck him shall be1 acquitted. He shall only pay for the loss of his time, and shall provide for him to be thoroughly healed.
