The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and
the dead shall be his own.
EXO 22:1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell
it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
EXO 22:2 If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die,
there shall no blood be shed for him.
EXO 22:3 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for
him; for he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he
shall be sold for his theft.
EXO 22:4 If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it
be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
