Exodus 21:17-19

Good News Translation

^17 (A)“Whoever curses his father or his mother is to be put to death.

^18-19 “If there is a fight and someone hits someone else with a stone or with his fist, but does not kill him, he is not to be punished. If the one who was hit has to stay in bed, but later is able to get up and walk outside with the help of a cane, the one who hit him is to pay for his lost time and take care of him until he gets well.
