Contextual Overview
12"Whoever strikes a man so that he dies must be put to death. 13"However, if he did not lie in wait [for him], but God allowed him to fall into his hand, then I will establish for you a place to which he may escape [for protection until duly tried]. 14"But if a man acts intentionally against another and kills him by [design through] treachery, you are to take him from My altar [to which he may have fled for protection], so that he may be put to death. 15"Whoever strikes his father or his mother must be put to death. 16"Whoever kidnaps a man, whether he sells him or is found with him in his possession, must be put to death. 17"Whoever curses his father or his mother or treats them contemptuously must be put to death. 18"If men quarrel and one strikes another with a stone or with his fist, and he does not die but is confined to bed,19if he gets up and walks around leaning on his cane, then the one who struck him shall be left [physically] unpunished; he must only pay for his loss of time [at work], and the costs [of treatment and recuperation] until he is thoroughly healed. 20"If a man strikes his male or his female servant with a staff and the servant dies at his hand, he must be punished. 21"If, however, the servant survives for a day or two, the offender shall not be punished, for the [injured] servant is his own property.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And if men strive together,.... Quarrel and fight, and wrestle with and box one another:
and one smite another with a stone; which lying near him he might take up, and in his passion throw it at his antagonist:
or with his fist; with his double fist, as we express it, with his hand closed, that it might come with the greater force, and give the greater blow:
and he die not, but keepeth his bed; does not die with the blow of the stone or fist, yet receives so much damage by it that he is obliged to take to his bed; or, as the Targum of Jerusalem paraphrases it, is cast on the bed sick; or, as the Targum of Jonathan, falls into a disease, as a fever, or the like, through the force of the blow, so that he is confined to his room and to his bed.
