Et si des hommes contestent entre eux, et que l'un frappe l'autre avec une pierre ou avec le poing, et qu'il ne meure pas, mais tienne le lit:
Si des hommes se querellent, et que l'un d'eux frappe l'autre avec une pierre ou avec le poing, sans causer sa mort, mais en l'obligeant à garder le lit,
Si quelques-uns ont eu querelle, et que l'un ait frappé l'autre d'une pierre, ou du poing, dont il ne soit point mort, mais qu'il soit obligé de se mettre au lit;

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.
