Contextual Overview
22If men who are fighting strike a pregnant woman and her child is born prematurely, but there is no further injury, he shall surely be fined as the woman's husband demands and as the court allows. 23But if a serious injury results, then you must require a life for a life- 24eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25burn for burn, wound for wound, and stripe for stripe. 26If a man strikes and blinds the eye of his manservant or maidservant, he must let the servant go free as compensation for the eye. 27And if he knocks out the tooth of his manservant or maidservant, he must let the servant go free as compensation for the tooth. 28If an ox gores a man or woman to death, the ox must surely be stoned, and its meat must not be eaten. But the owner of the ox shall not be held responsible. 29But if the ox has a reputation for goring, and its owner has been warned yet does not restrain it, and it kills a man or woman, then the ox must be stoned and its owner must also be put to death. 30If payment is demanded of him instead, he may redeem his life by paying the full amount demanded of him. 31If the ox gores a son or a daughter, it shall be done to him according to the same rule.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The owner of the pit shall make it good,.... Repair the loss of the ox or ass:
and give the money unto the owner of them: the price of them, what they are worth: the Targum of Jonathan is,
"the owner of the pit shall pay the silver, he shall return to its owner the price of the ox or ass:''
and the dead beast shall be his; either the owner of the pit; who pays the full value for the ox or ass killed, which seems but reasonable; or
"the injured person as Jarchi, for he says, they reckon or estimate the carcass, and he takes it for the price;''
that is, for part of the price it is valued at.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
