The Holy Tanakh: Leviticus: Chapter 24

{17} And he that smiteth any man mortally shall surely be put to death.

{18} And he that smiteth a beast mortally shall make it good: life for life.

{19} And if a man maim his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:

{20} breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he hath maimed a man, so shall it be rendered unto him.

{21} And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; and he that killeth a man shall be put to death.

{22} Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for the home-born; for I am the Lord your God.'

{23} And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and they brought forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. And the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses.

The Holy Tanakh: Leviticus: Chapter 25

{1} And the Lord spoke unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying:

{2} Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the Lord.

{3} Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the produce thereof.

{4} But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a sabbath unto the Lord; thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.

{5} That which groweth of itself of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, and the grapes of thy undressed vine thou shalt not gather; it shall be a year of solemn rest for the land.

{6} And the sabbath-produce of the land shall be for food for you: for thee, and for thy servant and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant and for the settler by thy side that sojourn with thee;

{7} and for thy cattle, and for the beasts that are in thy land, shall all the increase thereof be for food.

{8} And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and there shall be unto thee the days of seven sabbaths of years, even forty and nine years.

{9} Then shalt thou make proclamation with the blast of the horn on the tenth day of the seventh month; in the day of atonement shall ye make proclamation with the horn throughout all your land.

{10} And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabitants thereof; it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

{11} A jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you; ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of the undressed vines.

{12} For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

{13} In this year of jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.
