Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

Safeguarding Life

⁶ ‘Do not take a pair of grindstones or even the upper millstone as security for a debt, because that is like taking a life as security.

⁷ ‘If a man is discovered kidnapping^(A) one of his Israelite brothers, whether he treats him as a slave or sells him, the kidnapper must die. You must purge the evil from you.

⁸ ‘Be careful with a person who has a case of serious skin disease, following carefully everything the Levitical priests instruct you to do. Be careful to do as I have commanded them.
