But if there is serious harm, you are to take life for life,
In context
21But if the servant survives a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the servant is his property. 22If men are fighting and hit a pregnant woman so that she gives birth prematurely, but no further harm follows, the one responsible shall be fined whatever the woman’s husband demands, subject to the judges’ approval. 23But if there is serious harm, you are to take life for life, 24eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.
