19If anyone injures his neighbor, it shall be done to him as he has done:
19And if a man maim his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:
20fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. It shall be done to him as he has injured someone.
20breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he hath maimed a man, so shall it be rendered unto him.
