Tetapi jika lembu itu menanduk seorang budak laki-laki atau perempuan, maka pemiliknya harus membayar tiga puluh syikal perak kepada tuan budak itu, dan lembu itu harus dilempari mati dengan batu.
Jikalau ditanduk oleh lembu akan seorang hamba laki-laki atau perempuan, tak akan jangan diberinya uang perak tiga puluh keping kepada tuannya dan lembu itupun dilempar dengan batu sampai mati.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
If the ox shall push a manservant, or a maidservant,.... Which the Targum of Jonathan and Jarchi interpret of a Canaanitish servant, man or maid; but no doubt the same provision was made for an Hebrew servant, man or maid, as for a Gentile one:
he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver; that is, the owner of the ox shall pay so much to the masters of the servants for the loss they have sustained by his ox goring them; and Maimonides r observes, that
"the ransom of servants, whether great or small, whether male or female, is fixed in the law, thirty shekels of good silver, whether the servant is worth a hundred pounds, or whether he is worth but a penny.''
This was the price our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ was sold at,

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The animal was slain as a tribute to the sanctity of human life (Compare the marginal references and Genesis 4:11). It was stoned, and its flesh was treated as carrion. Guilty negligence on the part of its owner was reckoned a capital offence, to be commuted for a fine.
In the case of a slave, the payment was the standard price of a slave, thirty shekels of silver. See Leviticus 25:44-46; Leviticus 27:3, and the marginal references for the New Testament application of this fact.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Exodus 21:32. Thirty shekels — Each worth about three shillings English; see Genesis 20:16. So, counting the shekel at its utmost value, the life of a slave was valued at four pounds ten shillings. And at this price these same vile people valued the life of our blessed Lord; see Zechariah 11:12-13; Matthew 26:15. And in return, the justice of God has ordered it so, that they have been sold for slaves into every country of the universe. And yet, strange to tell, they see not the hand of God in so visible a retribution!
