Leviticus 24:17-22
Christian Standard Bible
17 “If a man kills anyone, he must be put to death.(A) 18 Whoever kills an animal is to make restitution for it, life for life. 19 If any man inflicts a permanent injury on his neighbor, whatever he has done is to be done to him: 20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Whatever injury he inflicted on the person, the same is to be inflicted on him.(B) 21 Whoever kills an animal is to make restitution for it, but whoever kills a person is to be put to death.(C) 22 You are to have the same law for the resident alien and the native, because I am the Lord your God.”

Leviticus 24:17-22
International Standard Version
17 “If a man beats a human being[a] to death,[b] he is certainly to be executed, 18 but whoever beats an animal to death is to replace it—life for life. 19 If a man disfigures his fellow, whatever he did is to be done to him also. 20 Fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth—just as he had caused a disfigurement against another man, so it is to be done against him. 21 Whoever beats an animal to death is to replace it, but whoever beats a human being to death[c] is to be put to death. 22 You are to have for yourselves consistent[d] procedures in deciding a case. As it is for the resident alien, so it is for the native born. I am the Lord your God.”
