Exodus 22:7–15

⁷—If a man deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man’s house; if the thief be found, let him restore double; ⁸if the thief be not found, the master of the house shall be brought before the judges, to see if he has not put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods. ⁹As to all manner of fraud, —as to ox, as to ass, as to sheep, as to clothing, as to everything lost, of which a man saith, It is this—the cause of both parties shall come before the judges: he whom the judges shall condemn shall restore double to his neighbour. ¹⁰If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any cattle, to keep, and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, and no man see it, ¹¹an oath of Jehovah shall be between them both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods; and the owner of it shall accept it, and he shall not make it good. ¹²But if it have been stolen from him, he shall make it good unto its owner. ¹³If it have been torn in pieces, let him bring it as witness: he shall not make good what was torn. ¹⁴—And if a man borrow anything of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, its owner not being with it, he shall fully make it good; ¹⁵if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good; if it be a hired thing, it came for its hire.
