And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp;

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

"Bring the one who has cursed outside the camp, and have all who heard him lay their hands on his head; then have all the congregation stone him.

Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.

'Moreover, the one who blasphemes the name of the LORD must be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him. The stranger as well as the native, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.

And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord , he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the Lord, shall be put to death.

'Now if someone takes any human life, he must be put to death.

And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.

'But the one who takes the life of an animal shall make restitution, life for life.

And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.

'If someone injures his neighbor, just as he has done, so shall it be done to him:

And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him;

fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; just as he has injured a person, so shall it be inflicted on him.

Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.

'So the one who kills an animal shall make restitution, but the one who kills a person shall be put to death.

And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death.

'There shall be only one standard for you; it shall be for the stranger as well as the native, for I am the LORD your God.'"

Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the Lord your God.
