Exodus 21:18-20
International Standard Version
18 “If people quarrel and one strikes the other with a rock or his fist, and he does not die but ends up[a] in bed, 19 and the injured person[b] then gets up and walks around outside with the help of his staff,[c] the one who struck him is not liable, except that he is to compensate him for his loss of time[d] and take care of his complete recovery.
20 “If a man strikes his male or female servant with a stick and he or she dies as a direct result,[e] the master must be punished.[f]
